Wirtz sat out that game with the back problem he picked up in the warm-up at Nottingham Forest's City Ground last month, with the German absent for the last three Premier League matches. But he could return in the FA Cup as Slot's side go all out for revenge.



Discussing the German's fitness at his press conference on Tuesday, Slot said: "He trained 'half and half' with the team yesterday. "Let's see where he is today.

"We have a few (options for changes) but we don't have 11," he said. "Not for the first time this season, three days after a game where we have dropped points, I've seen us do quite a lot this season, we have to be better than we were last time." Slot insists that his players are progressing despite the drop-off in results from last season, and pointed to Wirtz as an example before he got his injury.
