Liverpool Teen Amaro Nallo sent off after 4 minutes of Como

Liverpool head coach Arne Slot supported teenager Amara Nallo to jump back from his disappointing senior debut, where he was shown a red card just four minutes after entering the field.

Deputy Nallo was dismissed for a last man challenge on Johan Bakayoko In Liverpool’s 3-2 defeats against PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League. Despite the result, Slot’s side still peaked the league table, where nine first -team players had been rested to the trip to Philips Stadium.

Nallo was one of a number of young players who had an opportunity against the Dutch masters, and Castle is convinced that the 18-year-old is learning lots of lessons from Wednesday’s clash.

“It’s cruel, but he had never played first-team football yet, and then to debut at the Champions League level is probably the hardest way to debut,” the Liverpool boss said. “I think he mistakenly interpreted the situation and it is immediately a problem at this level or in the Premier League.

“It’s a big moment for him to learn from, and it’s cruel. You think ‘I will debut in the Champions League’ and then a few minutes later you get rid of a red card. It’s always hard.

“A career is not always positive, there are also negatives, and he has to fight very hard to make sure he is playing another Champions League game. It will not be easy, but hopefully he will.”

While it was a challenging evening for nallo, 20-year-old James McConnell Was among the young players to impress against Peter Bosz’s side, and the castle was quick to reap praise on the midfielder after the game.

“Currently we have most of our players to fit, so we want this discussion tomorrow, I think between me and Richard (Hughes) about these players (who could go on loan), but there is definitely one who Don’t want to go out on loan: James McConnell.

“I liked him a lot today. Maybe the end result today would be good for him to go and play (other places) but he is a player who has not played much in the last six or seven months when he became Wounded for one while he impressed me a lot today.

“He is competitive in the training sessions we had, he is always very competitive. I’m not surprised (of how he played), but you always wonder how you want to respond to this level.

“James plays and is competitive. He definitely deserves credit for his performance today.”

When asked about the meaning of ending the league phase top of the table added slot: “It is definitely a good achievement to end the top of this league. But I said many times that it is difficult to judge a table after Eight matches, so much less with the team that plays different opponents.

“But it doesn’t give us any insurance policies for the next round. I see the four teams we can meet, and especially one of them is definitely one, you hope not to meet if you end up first in a group like this.”
