I guested on the latest @distancecovered.bsky.social podcast - a Q&A special.

Includes data on a potential Mac Allister fall off, height vs set pieces and Slot's player turnover with Feyenoord. Which LFC new boys have been good or bad? What's up with Salah? And who are my five favourite bands?

You can play terribly and score first. Not saying this has been the case in all 7 games in which Liverpool scored first, but expected goals and actual goals are different.

FSG need to show ambition and spend £400m+ in January to fix the £400m+ in transfer mistakes they made in the summer.

🗣️James Pearce: "After a summer of unprecedented spending from the club, it wouldn’t surprise me if the January window is very quiet."

"Arne Slot may be down to three specialist senior centre-backs, but Ryan Gravenberch, Wataru Endo and Andy Robertson can also operate there."

Somehow need to convince the team that we start every game down a goal without actually being down a goal 😂

Gyokeres did not go on strike to force a move to Arsenal. It’s why he’s been scoring so many goals for Sweden during the last two international breaks.
