Liverpool head coach Arne Slot chose to focus on the positives and singled out James McConnell for huge praise after his understrength team suffered an "eventful" 3-2 loss to PSV Eindhoven, resulting in their first dropped points in the Champions League this season.

Slot praised PSV counterpart Peter Bosz: "PSV fans are really, really happy he is here. He doesn't only bring results, it is a joy to watch - always positive, always eventful. We are mainly judged on results, but I hope there comes a time that managers are also judged on playing style."
