Rio Ngumoha, who has yet to start a Premier League match, came off the bench for the ninth time this season and helped turn the game in Liverpool’s favour against Nottingham Forest. His 15‑minute spell saw him out‑score the regular wingers and change the momentum of the match.
Jamie Carragher and Daniel Sturridge praised Ngumoha’s performance, saying he deserves more minutes. Slot has managed Ngumoha’s involvement carefully, but the ex‑players believe the manager should shuffle the pecking order to give the 17‑year‑old a regular start.
