We certainly have a good looking squad atm, however one or two improvements are still needed and more worrying for me, is next summers transfer window.
Robbo is 29 now and is not getting any younger. Tsimikas is a good deputy so this may be ok for another season or two, but defo an area we need to look at.
Midfield is still a concern, signings of Mac, Szob and Gravenberch have been excellect and Endo is slotting into the team nicely. Add to that the guys we already have like Jones, Elliott, Bajcetic and Thiago (although tbh I don’t even include him when I look at the squad anymore as he is likely to leave next year and probably won’t get much game time any more.
A plyer like Andre in January would be mega, then we could add another out and out killer DM like Fabinho in the summer.
Attack is looking very tasty atm, but the big concern on everyones mind will be Salah going to Saudi next summer. Honestly, the money is insane, but he has not showed any signs of slowing down and I would not be opposed to tying him down for another 1 or 2 years. His output cannot be replaced. You may be able to spread it across the front line, but nobody can replace his numbers, and that isn’t even taking into account his playmaking abilities.
Was my thoughts too. I think a sin bin would be very beneficial, although I think it should be a rule for the yellow cards.
For example, when you get a yellow card, you are sent to the sin bin for 10 mins, get another one, then you get a red card as normal. Obviously how we look at yellow cards may need to change, do they need to be slightly harder to get? Kept the same? Can VAR spot a yellow card tackle and retroactively sin bin a player?
Having a rule like this and getting the ref’s mic’d up during games would go a long way in helping in my opinion.
