Narrative:
During cruise flight had system status display inoperative systems reverser 1 and engine 1 thr. With a description stating when slats out; engine 1 at idle; on ground engine 1 maximum power: idle. After discussing options and original destination [we] declared [an] emergency and diverted.upon slat selection engine did not reduce to idle thrust as expected uneventful landing. We suspect an unknown possible autothrust lever tla fault.
