Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 07/04/2026All those ‘tacticos’ who were at pains to diminish what the likes of Henderson and Milner brought to a Liverpool squad should now be able to see their value. The garbage and lack of effort we’ve seen from Liverpool this season absolutely would not have happened in their era. 010
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 06/04/2026It’s looking more and more like last season’s success was more about Klopp’s legacy than Slot’s ingenuity. 100
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 04/04/2026The fact that Slot still has a job reeks of ineptitude from the suits at Liverpool, by the way. 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 24/03/2026Salah. Without doubt one of the top five Liverpool players in history. We’ll no doubt see some top players at Liverpool over the coming years, but we probably won’t see a player sustain such a level, for so long a period, in a very, very long time - if ever. The Egyptian King, who won it all. 👑 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 04/01/2026As bad as I think Slot has been tactically this season, Richard Hughes has had an absolute mare signing players that don’t fit the system, and selling players that did. 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 21/12/2025We might have won yesterday, but my word, we were utterly abysmal… again. So passive and lethargic. God knows what the plan is at this point. 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 20/12/2025Isak’s done his ACL there. Unbelievable bad fortune. 100
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 03/12/2025This can’t continue. If Slot survives this, you can only assume it’s because there’s no obvious replacement lined up. 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 27/11/2025The whole football side of the club needs to take accountability for what’s gone wrong this season. Slot. With so much quality at his disposal, he has to be getting more out of the players. The players. Cowardly. They’ve downed tools. The press is non-existent, they don’t win their duels… 100
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 23/11/2025We all thought that Richard Hughes pulled a blinder in the summer. Undoubtedly, we managed to recruit elite talent. The problem is, there was clearly no joined-up thinking in terms of how to integrate that talent into a functioning team. I fear we’ve set ourselves back years with that outlay. 100
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 22/11/2025Who is coming in to replace Slot? Because this surely can’t go on. The rot has set in, and I’ve never known a manager to come back from it. 100
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 11/11/2025This is great from @distancecovered.bsky.social and @htomufc.bsky.social, but it’s absolutely damning of either Slot or the recruitment team at Liverpool (or both). Not sure what the solution is, other than spending a small fortune in January (again). youtu.be/crQQtbQwLLw?...youtu.beWhy Liverpool STILL Aren’t Getting Better | The Overlap BreakdownYouTube video by The Breakdown 2102
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 04/11/2025Phenomenal performance from the Reds tonight.media.tenor.comI Want You To Get The Word Out There That We Back Up The Wire GIFALT: I Want You To Get The Word Out There That We Back Up The Wire GIF 010
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 04/11/2025This shape and use of personnel suits Liverpool so much better. Maintains the midfield three of last season, with Szoboszlai pressing from the front. Wirtz, off the left, can roam without sacrificing too much solidity through the middle. 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 29/10/2025Slot chucked this game when he picked that squad, so no surprises here. But this will be six defeats in seven. Struggling to see how he turns this around. Mad to think he won the league a few months ago. 020
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 20/10/2025Slot should be looking to press the fast forward button on the future Liverpool team at this point. Wirtz in behind Isak and Ekitike, the midfield three from last season, and then use Kerkez and Frimpong/Bradley as flying fullbacks. Give Salah a rest. Slot’s not getting a tune out of anyone atm. 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 19/10/2025Unfortunately, you can’t spend £400m on talent and keep using the excuse that it’s difficult to play against a low block. Slot is under pressure, and he’s going to need to earn his money over the next few weeks, otherwise… 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 19/10/2025Robertson must be wondering what he’s got to do to get a game. Kerkez is not good. 100
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 19/10/2025We must be one of the easiest teams to play through in the league this season. Utterly woeful defending transitions and don’t create much the other way either. Very worrying. 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 04/10/2025There’s needing time to gel, and then there’s looking a complete mess from a tactical perspective. Slot really needs to earn his money, because performances like that are simply not good enough. 100
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 30/09/2025Loose in possession, easy to play through, Wirtz needing to come too deep to get on the ball, Gakpo doing predictable Gakpo things. Dear oh dear. 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 30/09/2025This has been dross, if we’re being honest with ourselves. 010
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 30/09/2025Gakpo must be the most predictable left winger to play against. You just know he’s cutting inside every single time. 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 23/09/2025Leoni doing his ACL is devastating. He looked excellent on his debut. 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 17/09/2025Virgil is the greatest ever. An absolute once in a lifetime centre back. 010
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 31/08/2025There’s a game of poker being played between Liverpool and Newcastle for Isak, as well as with Palace for Guehi. With such little time left in the window, I can only see one - at the most - being done before the deadline. 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 29/08/2025IF Liverpool sign Isak, it’s going to be interesting to see how Slot fits Isak, Ekitike, Salah and Wirtz into the same team whilst retaining balance. The shape could change to a 4-2-2-2, or he could rotate Isak & Ekitike and add an additional midfielder by playing a 4-3-1-2. Or he could do neither? 110
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 26/08/2025Has anyone read a good write-up on what the plan is from a tactical perspective at Liverpool this season? 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 26/08/2025Liverpool, on the whole, were abysmal last night and got very, very lucky (but riding your luck is the hallmark of Champions). But amidst the rubbish, I thought Szoboszlai and Van Dijk were absolutely outstanding. Jones also brought calmness that was so lacking in other areas. 110
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 26/08/2025I would have sent that £40m bid to Palace for Guehi at full-time last night. 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 22/08/2025I think Guehi signs before the end of the window, reading between the lines. I also think Rodrygo could come into play late in the window, especially if there’s no progress on Isak. 100
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 20/08/2025Looking at it deal by deal, Liverpool have done some great business in and out this summer. But we’re in the familiar situation where we’ve seemingly left ourselves short again. We need to sign Guehi + at least one attacker by the deadline, but hopes are fading rapidly. 100
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 19/08/2025With Isak now looking extremely unlikely to happen this window, I can see Liverpool pivoting to sign a versatile attacker. I think Guehi gets done closer to the end of the window, with Palace and Liverpool finding a compromise. 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 11/08/2025As good as Liverpool’s business has been this summer, I find it absolutely wild that we’ve left ourselves so much to do with the season kick-off just a few days away. 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 11/08/2025Think it’s time for Liverpool to admit defeat on Isak and move on. The squad is scarily thin in attack and defence. Need reinforcements. 110
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 21/07/2025Liverpool aren’t signing Isak. There is no way Ekitike is coming to sit on the bench. Yes, we’ll be light on options if Diaz and Nunez both go, but we’re more likely to get a winger and/or a ‘Mateta’ #9 option. 000
Jack Wells @jackwells.bsky.social · 07/06/2025I think this is the play for Liverpool next season… Gravenberch making it a back three, with Kerkez and Frimpong bombing on when Liverpool are on the ball. A bit of a free role for Wirtz as a false 9 / number 10. Szoboszlai covers the right flank because he’s an endurance machine. 340
