Liverpool head coach Arne Slot, who led the Reds to a record-levelling 20th PL title on his debut season, opined that there will always be scope for improvement.
Liverpool have spent over £250 million in the summer transfer window, acquiring several players including Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike, Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong, and Giorgi Mamardashvili. The Merseyside club is also pursuing Newcastle United forward Alexander Isak.

However, the Reds also saw the backs of some key players, including Trent Alexander-Arnold and Luis Diaz as they made the switch to Real Madrid and Bayern Munich respectively.
“We’ve added a few, in my opinion, extra weapons,” said the Dutchman.
“So, Florian has a lot of creativity in the final third. We’ve lost with Trent Alexander-Arnold, who has signed for Real Madrid a lot of creativity from the back,” the 46-year-old said.
“Trent’s crosses and picking out runners was so special -– I think Flo has this quality as well in a totally different position,” he added.
Slot also revealed that the side will always carry the late Diogo Jota, who met an untimely end a month ago in a crash crash in Spain alongside his brother.
“It has been a tough time for everyone connected with the club, but especially for Diogo’s family, his wife, his children and friends”.
“We cannot imagine the pain that they have been going through, and the club will continue to give them all the support they can going forward,” he wrote.
“We will always carry him with us in our hearts, in our thoughts, wherever we go,” the Liverpool gaffer added.
