In response, Alisson issued his own reply which read: "Good to see you again, bro."After the defeat to Galatasaray, Slot provided more details on the injury suffered by Alisson.



The Liverpool head coach confirmed he didn't anticipate Alisson being fit for Liverpool's upcoming clash against Chelsea at the weekend.."When he [Alisson] sprinted back, he felt something," Slot said on Tuesday."I cannot tell you because I am not a physician but normally when a player sprints back and feels something and goes to the floor and doesn’t come back to the pitch – which by the way they did 112 times being injured and coming back on the pitch without any pain – but our players don’t do this."So if one of our players is on the floor nine times out of 10 I fear the worst, and with the worst I mean he cannot continue and that is what happened with Alisson."He will not be able to play Saturday that is 99.9% [sure], I have already said 100."Slot also discussed the size of his squad and the impact injuries could have. "I like my squad so much but we don’t have 25 or 26 [players], so if we end up with two, three or four injuries, 15 or 16 players, where Rio [Ngumoha] and Trey [Nyoni] are two of these 15 or 16, need to play almost all the minutes and then things can become complicated," he said."But this is a decision we have made together, I completely believe in this, because if you have 25 it’s very hard to manage your squad.
