Liverpool boss Arne Slot had little to say about James Tarkowski's controversial bone-rattling tackle on Alexis Mac Allister during Wednesday's heated 1-0 Premier League victory over Everton, saying numerous people had done the talking for him.

The big talking point during the opening 45 minutes was that James Tarkowksi should been sent off for a horror tackle on Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister. Mac Allister was fine and ultimately went on to play the full 90 minutes, but Arne Slot was still asked whether he had any worries at all over the Argentine at full-time.

Curtis Jones will start at right-back in the Merseyside derby, Arne Slot has confirmed, after he left Conor Bradley out and Jarell Quansah on the bench. Jones has replaced Quansah in Slot’s only change from the Carabao Cup final, having been discussed as an option for the vacant right-back role.
