We don&#8217;t talk about contract situations here. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;Is it a distraction? No, it isn&#8217;t because I&#8217;m fully focused on the individuals and the team. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;They are part of the team and I&#8217;m trying to work with them in the best possible way to get the best out of them. It&#8217;s not a distraction for me at all.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Liverpool have won their opening three league games under Slot &#8211; who succeeded Jurgen Klopp in the summer &#8211; and host Nottingham Forest (15:00 BST) on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">They will be without attacking midfielder Harvey Elliott, who fractured his foot while on England Under-21 duty.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;Harvey&#8217;s injury is, of course, a big disappointment for him but also for us,&#8221; said the Dutchman.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;He didn&#8217;t play that much in the first three games but he showed himself really well in pre-season. It&#8217;s a blow for the both of us.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;If he had stayed fit, he would have had a lot of playing time in the upcoming fixtures but now he isn&#8217;t and that gives a chance to someone else,&#8221; added Slot, who said new signing Federico Chiesa has trained &#8220;three or four times&#8221; with the first team and is contention to be involved against Forest.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/sport\/football\/articles\/cwyxy46znkpo\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Liverpool manager Arne Slot has dismissed suggestions the contract situations of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah could be a distraction.
