Liverpool went to Newcastle on Monday night and gave Arne Slot a difficult puzzle to try and solve with the absence of right-back Jeremy Fripon.<\/h2>\n

Not only was Alexander Isaac missing from St. James Park on Monday night, but Jeremy Fripon was also missing, causing a headache even without one Arneslot.<\/p>\n
The Dutch were impressed after arriving from Bayer Leberkusen and scored a clearly fortunate goal at Community Shield before providing pace and breadth in Bournemouth’s opening Premier League night victory.<\/p>\n
Reds fans lamented the decision of Slot to fight Cherry, claiming that his withdrawal led to the host losing all momentum and allowing Antoine Seme\u00f1o in particular.<\/p>\n
However, as Frimon was ruled out until after an international break with a hamstring injury, the reason behind the replacement is clearer, and there’s no doubt that the Reds will miss out on both Monday evening and Arsenal next weekend.<\/p>\n

So what will Slot do to replace him? Options vary, but all come with their own risks.<\/p>\n
In an ideal world, he relies on Connor Bradley to fill in the role of right-back, but the Northern Irishman confused the preseason due to injuries and was not even on the bench against Bournemouth.<\/p>\n
Slot said he attended a “minimum” training at a press conference on Thursday, but he might think the game is too early for him. Arsenal will be on the horizon in particular next weekend.<\/p>\n

Joe Gomez will be another option after an impressive cameo with Bournemouth, but admitted with concern that slots hadn’t been able to train for three days recently.<\/p>\n
All of these offer the potential for a more left-wing solution at right back, and after playing there during preseason, Dominik Szoboszlai is a live option. Hungary has always been a willing worker and if he starts there he will definitely put in a shift, but he will worry defensively.<\/p>\n
The same goes for Curtis Jones, who started the Merseyside Derby at right back last season, but perhaps only suited to game-like roles like games that dominate what the Reds are unlikely to play in Newcastle.<\/p>\n

Also, Wataru End could start there after replacing Frimon with Bournemouth, but his displays didn’t exactly impress you or fill you with confidence.<\/p>\n
It was a difficult choice for slots and it ended up defining the game.<\/p>\n
