Liverpool manager Arne Slot has disagreed with Virgil van Dijk’s call that the Reds need to sign another striker ahead of the Premier League opener.
Recall that after Sunday’s loss to Crystal Palace in the Community Shield, Virgil van Dijk believes that Liverpool need another forward before the summer transfer deadline after selling Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez.
However, in a chat with talkSPORT, the Dutch tactician appeared to disagree with his countryman’s assessment of their attacking options.
“I think we have more than enough options to be good enough to win again,” Slot told talkSPORT.
“This is where I focus on myself. With the players we have, we should be able to win to score. That’s actually what we did as well. We scored twice (against Palace) and last season we only scored one against them, away and at home.
“We could only score one against them. So my last concern at the moment is our offensive quality.
“It’s more, it’s not a concern, but if I look at the amount of goals we’ve conceded in pre-season. That’s not of our standard.”
