Arne Slot still seems to be figuring out his best XI as the season gets going.Since his arrival, the Reds have entered their first difficult period, and their performances have fallen short of fan expectations.There are plenty of factors behind it, but the main one is simply how much has changed at the club in the last transfer window.A number of senior players have moved on, replaced by new faces eager to make an impact. But so far, they have not hit the ground running at Anfield.It has not helped that some of the more experienced players around them have not been at their best either.

Slot even admitted that one player has not yet been fit enough to start every match.Alexis Mac Allister still not at full strengthPhoto by PAUL ELLIS/AFP via Getty ImagesThere are problems across the pitch for the Reds, but the most glaring issue has been how often the back line is left exposed, which also raises questions about the midfield’s effectiveness.Alexis Mac Allister has not had the smoothest start to the season either. The Argentine is still working his way back to full fitness after a disrupted pre-season.He did start against Chelsea, though his performance fell short again.

Slot had already cautioned fans that he was not quite ready for a full run of games yet.“There’s also a reason why we played many formations, for example, Alexander Isak can’t play every single game, Alexis Mac Allister can’t play every single game.“I can go on. And it is hard not to think Liverpool will find their stride after the international break when they have a fuller squad to choose from.Alexis Mac Allister has to make the most of the international breakWhile Mac Allister could use some rest, it is just as important for him to keep getting minutes under his belt, as long as they are managed properly.During the last international window, he missed Argentina’s first game due to injury, but ended up playing a full 90 minutes in the second.
