Slaughter: We equalized last season when we replaced Jota. What was a brave move at the time has become stupid now.

. The only thing I can see is that we did create chances and our finishing ability was as expected, but the opponent's blocking and saves were also of high quality. "

Sent forwards from the bench, but then is it difficult to get the ball to their feet?

Slaughter: "I don't think we have a difficulty in that regard. I think a lot of times we had Gakpo and Salah on our side and it was difficult to create chances because they had a lot of players in and around the box to defend. If you try 75 minutes with four defenders, three midfielders and three forwards - even though those defenders were actually midfielders due to injuries - then the idea was to make a radical substitution, but that's my fault. I did it last season too, I took off Konate, I brought on Jota, and a minute later, I mean in the away game against Forest, we equalized, 1-1. At the time, it was a brave move. Now, that might be stupid. "
