Ngumoha netted his second goal of the campaign on Saturday as the Reds defeated Fulham 2-0 at Anfield, and demands to deploy the exciting winger more frequently have been intensifying for several weeks.Liverpool entertain European champions PSG on Tuesday evening facing a 2-0 deficit from the opening leg in Paris last week, and Slot believes Ngumoha, who doesn't celebrate his 18th birthday until August, won't be fazed against the reigning holders. And Slot insists the entire Liverpool team are capable of doing "special things" and mounting a memorable comeback against the reigning champions of Europe.Goals from Desire Doue and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia have handed PSG a commanding advantage in the quarter-final tie ahead of the second leg on Merseyside.Arne Slot was speaking at his pre-match press conference (Image: Getty)While Slot concedes his squad must improve markedly on their display in the French capital last week, he remains convinced that another iconic European night at Anfield is well within reach.

That makes the task more complicated but not impossible. [The fans will be] just as important as our performance, so I think we have to better much, much better than we were last week."And their experienced players who experienced Anfield last year, they think that they know what is coming up, so I can only hope our fans can find an extra gear, compared to last season."Which I will argue if that is possible because the atmosphere last season was unbelievable. In first 35 minutes at the Etihad, did you expect us to be 4-0 down 20 minutes later?"Would you expect us, after losing 1-0 to Galatasaray, to then, in a different game, where we could have scored eight or nine at home?

So the amount of times we have shown we can be much better than we were against PSG, that is clear."Even on Saturday, against Fulham, it showed how important a goal can be to change momentum. We were the best team on the pitch and then for 10 minutes it went more equal and we scored a goal and then 10 minutes later a second.
