"He's taken to it very well. Not perfect, but that is normal. But very well,"Slot said ahead of this weekend's trip to Old Trafford.
"He has hardly played there in his career but the way he does is a big compliment. He twice played well, and against Palace was better than Everton in terms of defensively.
"He shows great personality in whatever position he plays. Always wants the ball and never scared to take a risk, which is something he may have to adjust playing in the last line than in midfield.
"It is one of his qualities to bring himself out of a tough position. Usually the ball is in safe hands as he's very good on it."
