Arne Slot has a fantastic squad on his hands at Liverpool.
The talented Dutchman can call upon world class footballers such as Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk on a weekly basis – with his highly effective coaching skills helping the Reds sit top of the Premier League.

There are – however – some areas Liverpool could bolster.
A desire was shown to sign a new No.6 last summer as Liverpool bid for Martin Zubimendi – although the Spaniard opted to stay at Real Sociedad.
Liverpool could also use a new central defender – and one of the best in England is now eager to join the Reds in Marc Guehi.
Marc Guehi wants Liverpool move
A story from Alan Nixon now states that the Crystal Palace No.6 is holding out for a move to Anfield.
Guehi – who Newcastle almost signed last summer – only has 18 months remaining on his contract at Selhurst Park, with Crystal Palace braced for offers in the upcoming January transfer window.
Newcastle still want Guehi as Eddie Howe aims to improve his options.
However, Nixon believes the England international wants Liverpool, and is willing to wait for the Reds – who themselves are admirers of the man born in Abidjan too.
The respected journalist states that Liverpool are ready to do a deal with Crystal Palace for the right price, although the Eagles will seek a significant fee in January – given the fact his value is expected to drop significantly in the summer, by which point he will only have 12 months remaining on his contract.
Guehi – who Crystal Palace signed from Chelsea for £18m back in July 2021 – has made 18 Premier League appearances so far this season, scoring two goals while also providing one assist.
What TBR Football have heard about Crystal Palace No.6 Marc Guehi
Graeme Bailey – TBR Football‘s Chief Correspondent – has also heard some information regarding Guehi.
It is believed the 24-year-old is not looking to move anywhere until the summer transfer window, with Liverpool also unlikely to submit any bids in January, so we doubt this saga will really heat up until the season ends.
TBR Football also understand Chelsea are keen on bringing Guehi back to Stamford Bridge – so Liverpool do not have a clear run at his signature.
