How does Liverpool replace Hugo Ekitike?

Arne Slot was right to call it "stupid" and Hugo Ekitike will miss the weekend's trip to Crystal Palace after his red card this week.

So what should Liverpool do to solve that headache?

I'd bring Florian Wirtz back into the team and use him as a false nine.



The bottom line is that while losing Ekitike is not ideal, there are ways of getting around it.
