Liverpool must tie down Marc Guehi's signature without delay.
The Crystal Palace centre-back nearly joined Slot's revolution on transfer deadline day during the summer window, but the move ultimately collapsed at the final hurdle.
With Manchester City and Bayern Munich among those circling for Guehi's signature, the Reds must act swiftly to land the former Swansea City defender.
His consistently impressive performances this campaign suggest a £30m bid might tempt Palace into parting with their prized asset, who is out of contract next summer.
Otherwise, they risk repeating the 2020/2021 scenario, where Nat Phillips and Rhys Williams formed the centre-back partnership due to the absence of several senior defenders.
Play Wirtz in his actual position
Florian Wirtz was recruited as one of Europe's most promising central attacking midfielders, yet Slot seems determined to start him on the left.
It would be fascinating to see what a £116m prodigy can achieve when utilised in his most effective role at No. 10. Granted, Liverpool haven't fielded a proper No. 10 10 since Phillipe Coutinho's tenure at the club, but why not experiment with something new?
Liverpool have transitioned from Fabinho to Ryan Gravenberch as sixes in recent years, and both have performed admirably, allowing the two midfielders ahead of them to thrive and exploit the space in their path.
However, with the arrival of Wirtz, it might be worth trying a slightly different approach to accommodate the German's skills in that No. 10 role.
For instance, Gravenberch and Dominik Szoboszlai could be used in a flat midfield partnership - arguably the two best midfielders currently, ahead of Alexis Mac Allister and Curtis Jones, although the latter has been exceptional recently.
Then, position Wirtz in his natural role behind a potential attacking trio of Semenyo, Ekitike and Federico Chiesa.
