Everybody can be proud (of our year) but for me, it feels like we are not really far away from being really constantly in these areas (in the league table, competing in Europe and challenging for trophies)."But to be honest, little things we are missing that are important to stay where we are."Glasner, who confirmed back in October that Guehi would not be penning fresh terms with the club, had earlier disclosed that he anticipated the defender would complete the campaign at Crystal Palace."I think Marc will stay until the end of the season," he informed journalists on Wednesday when discussing his team's Conference League clash against Finnish outfit Kuopion Palloseura earlier this month.Meanwhile, Liverpool boss Arne Slot recently dismissed speculation about the Reds bringing in a new centre-back in January despite losing Joe Gomez to a hamstring problem, having already seen Giovanni Leoni sidelined for the campaign following surgery on an ACL injury."First of all for himself but the injury of Giovanni Leoni is, of course, it has quite a lot of impact," Slot said earlier this month."If you have four centre backs for the season, two right and two left backs with Wata (Wataru Endo) and Ryan (Gravenberch) who can help you out, but then you have an ACL injury, that is not very helpful. Some teams have so many (options) but most other teams do not."This is our way of working at Liverpool.

You then have to accept that in certain games during a season you are short of a right full back."But we are still able to win.
