"Elle adorait ça !" vs "Elle l'adorait !" "Quand ma fille était petite, nous allions à la piscine toutes les semaines. Elle adorait ça !"

I write "Elle l'adorait !" , why is it wrong? To replace a statement, we must use "ça" ?

why not futur antérieur?From a quiz on usage of "quand" and future tense:Question was:Quand ils ________, tu iras les accueillir. When they arrive, you will go and welcome them.and the correct answer given was "arriveront".However, I wonder if the futur antérieur would be more appropriate/acceptable? They have to arrive before you can go meet them, right? So, how about:"Quand ils seront arrivés, tu iras les accueillir."Can anyone provide guidance on this?Merci!
