However, the Liverpool boss has been encouraged by Konate's recent response and is set to select him at Spurs."For centre-backs that is not an uncommon thing to be on the crime scene if you concede goals but he has been unlucky a few times, where he played a good game in my opinion but a moment decides the game," Slot said."We play a low scoring game, football, that is the nice thing about football and why teams who are not as good can also win the game, and then when you are involved in a moment like Ibou it has an immediate impact on the result.

And then maybe people are not as positive about that as they should be if you look at his performances."But recently he has not been on the crime scene and that is the way we prefer to see him. We prefer to see all of our players [away from the crime scene], but that is not only about him.""He has helped out recently than before, we are less vulnerable in situations than we were earlier in the season.

It is again the challenge to go to the fourth, the fifth, the sixth game."But I think I am not the only one who liked the way he played with so much confidence, with so much work rate, giving it all in every single moment for the team and really comfortable on the ball as well."So his last three performances are the base for where we expect him to go on but that starts tomorrow against a difficult opponent in Spurs."
