I agree with virtually all you said. Man of the match, has to be Barcola, but regardless of the goals, there were other contenders like you mentioned, it was a consumate team performance

I wouldn’t want Wirtz to fail, hence I bought the jersey, fools who cannot contextualize a player would. Echoed in “For once, he had movement around him, runners anticipating his passes, teammates occupying defenders and combinations creating the spaces his intelligence is designed to exploit.

Pretty much sums it up, but with Lasik on the attack bringing on both Joe & VVD cold and Frimpong though very good going fwd, not a great right back and we got leaky. But it was a great opportunity for the young lads and slightly Klopesque in we will just score more. Lots to be positive about again

Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 9h
He has been loyal and came on cold. But, your right, we need a replacement, and Jacquet & Araujo are there, but we need back up

Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 9h
Just a bit, Klopesque in terms of we will score more. But Joe and VVD not ready or sharp enough. Game management

VVD & Joe/Frimpong

Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 9h
Since VVD & Joe came on and Frimpong not helping

Ever since VVD & Joe came on our back line has gone to shit and Frimpong not helping

Confronted by the facts, he is an intellectual and moral embarrassment. He regurgitates the spam that the club has generated around this scenario, lackey! The gloating around a victory that needed referee interference, compounds the issue that with wholesale corruption they answer to money alone

Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 13/10/2026
It’s hard to watch week in, week out across many teams, that the refereeing system and VAR are not instruments of this corruption. The time given to Man City is unacceptable. They need to be held accountable in a timely fashionbefore they game and league we love, we completely lose faith in.
000
Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
Agree with the gloating, it’s embarrassing, but I also understand that when those players/fans are underfire that the siege mentality gives some temporary reprieve no matter the final outcome . Up until that red card, I thought we could win and thats progress considering our absentees

I've been largely of the view that the harshest punishments Man City face should be directed at the owners and protect fans. But you'll struggle to find many who support that stance after the full-throated backing for Khaldoon et al in the away end today. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nxyt...

Agree on key point ref effectiveness of the system we were playing

Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
There were huge positives, Munoz, Gravenberch, MacAllister, the general play up until the red card. Decision making up front needs to be better (missing key players). With subs and we understand why, it got worse and worse, but 3-0, there is alot to learn.

Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
We did have best of it until then, stats support that and we played some lovely football, but no product. 1st goal, lucky deflection into Haaland’s path. But then defending sitting in and allowing them to approach was not appropriate tactics, we needed to push out and attack the player on the ball.

Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
Well, three key players missing, the red was a little harsh and that was his best game of the season, but his decision making in the final 1/3rd could have been better. Down to ten men, a deflection gave the ball to Haaland, the rest is about doing better @ defending /pushing them out-dissapointing

Lesson for Iriola, 10 men, close the danger player down, dont allow him to play the ball into the danger area

🆕 Ronald Araujo admits #LFC have given him what he needed after a ‘very difficult’ period as he opened up on past struggles. 🗣️ "The truth is it was very difficult. It hurts me. And maybe I also understand the questioning and the criticism... It is something that I truly feel and it hurts me a lot."

Whether you agree with him or not, Marsch gives a great interview. One of many good lines in this: "Could a president of the US ever be an Everton fan? No chance." [A criticism of the US, not Everton.]

Liverpool put another new-look set-piece coaching team in place this summer - so how is it getting on? www.davidlynchlfc.co.uk/p/no-goals-y...

No goals yet, but how is Liverpool’s new set-piece team faring?
Liverpool’s set plays are once again being overseen by a new group of coaches hoping to improve on last season’s record.

We need to stop scapegoating Wirtz, its neither shows an understanding of football, or the performance of players around him and the nature of the team he arrived into. Football is dynamic and this team is still developing

Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
It took to long to bring speed into the game other than Bellingham/Gordon. Options aside, clearly not a meritocracy
010
Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
response time to clear defensive frailties from the middle to OReilly was clear from min 1. Anderson tried his best as did Quansah, Bellingham, Gordon, but no changes, same up front (Kane, Saka, Skelly, poor touch bad delivery and yet he makes changes at 82 mins. Penalty fiasco aside, speed was req

Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 26/09/2026
Looks at each moment of play and shows the ideal pass movements/options etc V what you have actually done. Something a liitle bit more dynamic that is more predictive based on where you are but also tracks those pos/neg changes over time
000
Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 26/09/2026
Thanks David. What I’ve seen to date is promising and we can only wonder what we might of done starting Araujo in RB. The challenge with most of these stats is that they dont really predict the game as a whole. To your first point context is everthing. Id like to see a tool that history matches.

Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 26/09/2026
Tuchel keeps on Kane and Saka (until 82 mins) who were shocking. Your trying to get an equalizer and you insist on keeping guys on

Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 26/09/2026
Absolute garbage defending and he has the audacity to criticize TAA, OReilly, Guehi and Konsa, shocking and look at the substitutes. Gordan arguably, their best player is taken off and Kane/Saka have been poor all game and yet are still on the pitch.

Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 26/09/2026
Shocking defending by England and Tuchel has the audacity to criticize TAA. How many times have Spain penetrated that defense with ease.

Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 26/09/2026
England V Spain, only 1-0 to Spain, could be 4-0 if Ferran Torres could get his act together when through on goal. Can England rescue ?
000
Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 26/09/2026
Englands speed of movement breaking forward just allows the Spanish to reset everytime, failing to take advantage of every opportunity

Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 26/09/2026
12 mins in and the English awareness, press and delivery in the final 1/3rd is sub par

Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 21/09/2026
Lets not forget, Gakpo the archictect, difficult flick back assist by Wirtz and simple put away by Isak. How many nearly shots did we have and by who? Who else in the first half lost numerous balls, overall neither stats good
000
Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 21/09/2026
Whatever the case, have to make this work, what I like about the various permutations we have tried is is that we are trying to find ways and nobody’s position is safe (assuming available options) if your not delivering. I’m a Wirtz fan and you just have to contextualize within what the team needs

Andoni Iraola was hired for his front-footed, attacking football, but his first priority has been to make Liverpool hard to beat and he is succeeding. On a defence that can now grind it out and whether a big call on Florian Wirtz and Trey Nyoni is coming. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQtn...

Lots to be positive about. Kerkez, defensively not bad, his crosses, service to Barcola, crosses in general, he shoots when he had two options, shocking, headless chicken. If we improve the mid & high Press, and keep him in defence, maybe. Comments on Wirtz, true for this game, but was not alone.

Jeff Forsyth @jeffforsythphd.bsky.social · 20/09/2026
Yeh, good game management, but delivery up the left wing to Barcola by Kerkez in general is poor, physicality aside he doesnt cut it , marginal improvements in the high Press, but still a little too disjointed up front. Stand out’s Jacquet, Mac Allister, Gakpo. Where do we go from here esp in Mid?
