Slot previews Forest amid managerial chaos

Arne Slot acknowledges the difficulty of preparing for Nottingham Forest, who have now appointed their fourth manager of the season, with Vitor Pereira's first match coming just three days before facing Liverpool.

Slot admitted that Forest's constant transition makes tactical preparation challenging. The Liverpool boss confirmed his team will analyze Forest's Europa League match against Fenerbahce to understand how Pereira will set up, as it provides their only real chance to see how the new manager approaches the team.

The Portuguese coach, who was in the Premier League last season, is juggling Premier League survival and European progression, which may limit his ability to drastically change systems. Liverpool currently sits sixth with 42 points, making matches against lower-table opposition critical in their Champions League race.
