An amusing moment at the end of the news conference where a Merseyside reporter asks a question to Arne Slot about whether Liverpool prepare differently for Champions League games but the Reds boss struggles to decipher it.

"That was a bit of Scouse!" Slot says, before Liverpool press officer Tony Barrett offers to "translate".

Slot responds that Liverpool "prepare the same way" and he is "hoping for a special evening".

Liverpool

Liverpool boss Arne Slot on the threat of Bologna: "Bologna showed last season and this season they are a really difficult team to beat. We as Liverpool know how difficult it can be against a team that man marking all over the pitch. Atalanta did that last season. To face an Italian team at Champions League level, we don't under-estimate them at all. That's not what they deserve based on last season."

On looking forward to a European night at Anfield: "I am privileged to work at Feyenoord last season where Champions League nights were special. People tell me it is going to be more special here.

"What I want from the players is them to show they missed this. I want to see this, I want to feel this. That the players missed this for a season. I am hoping it's the same from our fans. I am hope they feel this desire to show Europe that you missed us. That combination should lead to hopefully a special night for everyone involved with Liverpool."

Arne Slot on Liverpool's form this season: "One of the reasons we can compete is we have a lot of quality. We have a lot of cohesion in the team. Those who are not playing are happy with us scoring and winning so those are two really positive things.

"I also see things we have to improve if we want to stay where we are. Every fixture is difficult in the Premier League. We have to do things better. But one of the reasons we can stay up there is we have a lot of quality."

On the depth of the squad: "We have quality but we have a lot of players who can help us. Very pleased to see when we need a player he shows up. They have quality. If they didn't have quality, they wouldn't play here. If they train hard it's hard to tell them they don't play.

"But it's part of my job and part of their lives as well. You know if you join a top club there's competition. It is what they are all used to. They are handling, all of them, the situation really well. There is a good energy in the group and that's the most important thing with competition."

Liverpool boss Arne Slot on injuries picked up by Diogo Jota and Federico: "Diogo missed out on two sessions after the game against Wolves. He took a knock. So I am expecting him to be with us tomorrow. That he is available to play.

"Federico trained with us yesterday. He came today with some problems so not expecting him to be with us. It's a shame for him because he was looking forward to a Champions League night at Anfield, and especially because we face an Italian team. It's a pity for him. How long is he out? It's always difficult because it happened yesterday but I am not expecting him to be out for a very long period of time. We will see if he can be in the team for Saturday."

Liverpool

More from Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister on whether it would a dream to win the Champions League: "Yes, of course it's adream to win the Champions League. For some people it was a surprise I have won the World Cup but made my Champions League debut against Milan. It was quite crazy.

"Like I said before when you play for Liverpool, you have to fight for it. We have very good players and a very good team but we will see at the end of the season if we can win it."

Changes under Slot which are behind Liverpool's form: "Now that the games come thick and fast then it's a bit harder to prepare the games as much we want. But he's definitely an amazing manager. You can see how he's been from the first day. We understood what we wants from us, and I think that's the main thing as a coach - to get the ideas in the players. But there's still room for improvement."

Arne Slot says he is expecting Diogo Jota to be available to face Bologna in the Champions League tomorrow night despite missing training today, but Federico Chiesa will miss out through injury.

More to come.

That's all from Alexis Mac Allister on the live stream, and it's a quick turnaround as Arne Slot takes his seat.

We'll keep the quotes coming from both, but remember, you can watch the Liverpool manager live at the top of this page.

Liverpool

Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister on what Arne Slot wants from him in midfield and how it differs from former boss Jurgen Klopp: "Between Arne and Jurgen there is not a huge difference. Now we have more structure and pattern which we know and try to improve.

"Apart from that there is not much to add. We are talking Ryan, Dom and me but we also have Curtis, Endo and Harvey who are also important."

On Luis Diaz's form: "He knows how important the numbers are for strikers and wingers. I am happy he is getting goals and assists. He can still improve and play the way he plays. Hopefully he can continue to show effective he is. Consistency is key."

Liverpool

Alexis Mac Allister on his midfield partnership with Dominik Szoboszlai and Ryan Gravenberch: "Last season I played most of the season as a six, or in a double six. Now we have a lot of freedom. Sometimes that could be as six and Dominic as a 10. It changes lot in a games. I am really enjoying my football and hopefully tomorrow I can show it."

On whether momentum is with Liverpool: "Yes. Definitely. We have an amazing team and a good coach. When you platy for Liverpool you have to be up there. We know it's quite early and a lot of time to see if we are in the title race."

Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister on the reaction of the squad since the defeat to Nottingham Forest: "For us it was important to see the way we reacted to Forest. We worked on certain details but we didn't like that game was the way we finished it. We spoke about that. Everyone knew it wasn't our best game and we just tried to win the next one.

Whether they are better equipped to compete this season: "I could say a lot of things but we have to show it. We have an amazing team and we will try to do out best to win every game. We will see by January and February if we will be in the competition to win a trophy."

Celtic midfielder Arne Engels says performing in front their passionate home supporters has prepared his team to face Borussia Dortmund’s famous 'Yellow Wall'.

The Scottish champions face the German giants in their second Champions League match on Tuesday after opening their European campaign with an impressive 5-1 win over Slovan Bratislava.

Engels is relishing the prospect of testing himself against last season's beaten finalists.

"It's always amazing to be here and also to come back because I played here a few times," the Belgian midfielder said.

"It's an amazing stadium and it's always positive to play here.

"I haven't spoken to a lot of the guys about it because they know it and we also have an amazing atmosphere at Celtic Park.

"So it's kind of the same. Everyone knows how to handle it. If you can play at Celtic Park, you can play everywhere.

"If you don't have the belief, then you are better not to come and say it's 5-0 for them.

"We want to come here and win like every game. You always need to have this mindset.

"Everyone is really focused on their jobs and that's what makes us really strong as a team.

"We are setting the standards for ourselves every day as a team and doing a really good job there. It's up to us now to show it like we do every week."

Having faced some lightweights so far this season Celtic are now entering an altogether different division - a Champions League game against last season’s runners-up in their own storied ground. The “acid test” as Brendan Rodgers is calling it.

In boxing parlance, we’ve had an undercard that’s lasted weeks, a series of mismatches that Celtic have won with a remorseless intensity.

Scotland is a comfort zone for Rodgers’ team. Very little about Dortmund on Tuesday is expected to be comfortable.

Dortmund are not in a great place right now, but these things are relative. They finished fifth in the Bundesliga last season - their lowest placing since 2015 - and only qualified for the Champions League because Germany were given an extra spot.
