McAllister missed Liverpool's Premier League round, but head coach Slott hopes he can participate in the next round.
In the second round of the Premier League held this morning, Liverpool beat Newcastle 3-2 away. But McAllister missed the game after he missed training last weekend due to physical discomfort. Liverpool coach Slot said: "Yes, we hope he can play. He had to leave the training ground a few days ago, and it wouldn't have been a big problem if he went through a full pre-season preparation period, but he had been out of training for several weeks before."
Slot continued: "Pre-season preparation is important because you may feel something, and players who have been missing for a long time in pre-season preparation period will have a hard time finding a draw. . Pre-season preparation is to lay the foundation for the whole season. You can see the intensity of last week's game, and this game has increased by 10 times. In this case, you need to be very, very healthy to deal with it. If you bring a player who does not participate in pre-season preparation and missed training two days ago, then there is a risk. "
In the third round of the Premier League this Sunday, Liverpool will face strong rivals Arsenal at home. "Because the season is still long, I think it's too risky to have McAllister play in this game. But I hope he'll get better in the next day or two so he can play in Sunday's game," Slot said.
