Slot praised Plymouth for getting the better of his side Arne Slot compared Plymouth Argyle’s tactics to those used by Manchester United after the Championship’s bottom club eliminated Liverpool from the FA Cup. Liverpool suffered a fourth round exit after a 1-0 defeat at Home Park on Sunday afternoon, ending their hopes of a quadruple for another season. Slot opted to rest many of his first-team regulars with Alisson Becker, Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah among those left out of the squad.
Plymouth dumped Liverpool out of the FA Cup ‘We have seen a few times this season that it is a game plan that is difficult for our starers but also for the ones that played today. ‘Constant long ball, second ball, long ball, second ball. It’s difficult for every team. ‘We had this at home to United as well for example they had a similar playing style going to a very low block and kicking every ball long. And then we played with our starters.
