Liverpool does not need to make wholesale changes in the summer transfer market but there are two positions that Arne Slot can upgrade most easily when the time comes.

Slot said defender Trent Alexander-Arnold, who missed Liverpool's 4-0 semi-final win over Tottenham on Thursday due to a thigh injury, would not feature against Plymouth but could return for the league clash against Everton on February 12.

But even though all things must come to an end, a change in Liverpool's boss didn't have to mean a departure from their recent run as title challengers, and boy, has Arne Slot proven that to be true.

The Hungarian's outstanding goal on Saturday made a few more onlookers sit up and take notice of his performances in Slot's system this season.

Liverpool head coach Arne Slot has something he wants the Premier League to change. But if Jurgen Klopp is anything to go by, English clubs really don't like change.

Liverpool are through to Arne Slot's first final as manager - and the Dutchman was typically low-key about the whole affair

Arne Slot hailed a special moment after guiding Liverpool into the Carabao Cup final during his first season, but insisted his thoughts were already on the next game. The holders booked a Wembley date with Newcastle next month as they comfortably overturned a 1-0 first-leg deficit in their semi-final against Tottenham with a convincing 4-0 victory in the Anfield return on Thursday.
