Are Liverpool’s fringe players ready to step up?

New York Times  

Arne Slot is entering into unknown territory. Premier League minutes played : 152 Can deputise for: Virgil van Dijk, Konate, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joe Gomez This time last year, a 20-year-old Quansah had played himself into the Liverpool first team ahead of Konate. Jarell Quansah has lost his starting place Premier League minutes played: 20 Can deputise for: Ryan Gravenberch The experienced Japan international is Liverpool’s only backup senior holding midfielder, which goes some way to explaining why Gravenberch has started every game in the Premier League and Champions League for Slot so far, and why the club rejected a €14million offer for him from French side Marseille in July. Wataru Endo could be getting more minutes in the coming weeks Premier League minutes played: 8 Can deputise for: Mohamed Salah, Curtis Jones, Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai Elliott returned to the squad at the end of last month after being out since September with a fractured foot and was handed an opportunity from the bench for the final 15 minutes or so against Girona. Federico Chiesa Premier League minutes played: 18 Can deputise for: Salah, Darwin Nunez, Jota Four months of frustration have left none of us any the wiser about Chiesa and whether he can have the desired impact on Liverpool’s first team.
