Arne Slot hosted his first Premier League press conference as Liverpool manager on Friday, previewing the weekend trip to Ipswich.
But there was little talk of that visit to Portman Road, with transfers instead the main topic of discussion.
Reds reporter David Lynch was there to hear what the manager had to say on the failed pursuit of Martin Zubimendi and whether the club will be busy in the coming weeks.
Injuries, Luis Diaz's future, and the contract situations of Mohamed Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk were also discussed.
Let us know your thoughts on the key talking points from Slot's press conference in the comments below.

A new season is upon us, and the #liverbirds are back for kick-off!
Gae, Randi, and Amy Kate reflect on what the pre-season showed us, transfers, the contract situation for Mo, Virg & TAA, and the first game of the season at Ipswich. They also look at the next attempt to improve VAR, the latest news on LFC women and the re-vamped CL format.
Liverpool are in talks over a £30m deal for Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili.
The Reds are hoping to secure the Georgian as a long-term successor for Alisson Becker before loaning him out for the coming campaign.
After the failure to capture Martin Zubimendi, the first signing of the Arne Slot era is not expected to feature for the club next season.
But Liverpool reporter David Lynch believes this could be a smart move that helps avoid a similar long-term issue to those oft-discussed midfield woes.
He also reflects on what this means for Alisson's long-term future, as well as Caoimhin Kelleher in this latest transfer update.
Let us know your thoughts on the potential signing of Mamardashvili in the comments below.
