Slot on team news, Alexander-Arnold criticism and Spurs

Liverpool boss Arne Slot has been speaking to the media before Wednesday's Carabao Cup semi-final first leg at Tottenham (kick-off 20:00 GMT). Defender Joe Gomez "is injured and will be back in a few weeks" but otherwise there are no new injury concerns. Midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai did not train on Monday.
