Woke up this morning feeling like a champion!

[Liverpool FC @LFC]

Liverpool FC. Premier League champions.

@Sean_Rogers Ahhh I get it now…Ornstein’s story was sourced from Rio’s agent…

@fc_mossman 100% agree…that’s my ideal summer
OUT: Endo, CuJo(contract related), Mac10
IN: Tchouameni and Wharton
Leaving Grav. Szobo, Trey, Flo, Tchouameni and Wharton as our 6 options.

@Ivan_Schwakoff This guy…

[Data Sorkin @Q15analytics]

@SeanDOlfc I like the way you think. If this hasn’t at least been suggested then it’s negligence all around.

[Data Sorkin @Q15analytics]

@SawkurGod Fully agree. This summer is a huge crossroads moment for us. If we take the wrong path then we could be in the wilderness for long time.

[Data Sorkin @Q15analytics]

@AnfieldIndex @SamWallaceTel There is no data that signals he should stay…

@HendrickD82 @Mobyhaque1 I’m curious, if Ward becomes Sporting Director and we’re not doing the multi club thing…what would Edwards be re-upping to do? Unless he takes over from Hogan…🤷🏿‍♂️

[Data Sorkin @Q15analytics]

@AnfieldEdition @MiguelDelaney Data? Really? What data?

[Ted Knutson @mixedknuts]

Trendlines are a useful way to interrogate season-long performance. They mostly enable us to ask questions.

What questions would you ask about Liverpool and Arne Slot right now?

[Doing Variance Betting analysis, per usual.]

@DistanceCovered @emorgan1961 I think he’s laughing because mitigation is just a catch all buzz word people are blindly regurgitating cos the only mitigation that isn’t normal football adversity is Jota.

Disagree? Fine, but what other “mitigation” is there that only affects Liverpool and Slot?

[Data Sorkin @Q15analytics]

@HendrickD82 @mhartg1 @BackseatsmanLFC @justyn_lfc Over a 38 game season his ppg equated to 100 pts in year 1 and 77 in year 2. 89 pt avg…I rounded up to 90. Point still stands, he’s elite. Enrique isn’t coming…so he’s the viable coach with the most credentials. If they prefer Cesc or Honess fine, but they’re NOT more qualified

[Data Sorkin @Q15analytics]

@mhartg1 @BackseatsmanLFC @justyn_lfc Well in year 1 they were centurions so a drop off was natural…unless your name is Pep or Klopp. Xabi averaged 90 pts for his time there. You might not want Xabi and that’s fine, but you can’t say he’s not elite!

[Data Sorkin @Q15analytics]

@Mobyhaque1 @HendrickD82 They can only mean Jota but of course they won’t say that outright. Every other “mitigation” e.g injuries, Salah declining, refereeing decisions etc is just normal football adversity that every club and coach goes through.

[Data Sorkin @Q15analytics]

@mizgans Your last line hits the nail on the head. And that is the most terrifying part. If Slot stays it says we’re no longer a data driven club cos there is no data that supports the idea that he should continue…and not hiring Alonso will only be because of ego…dark times ahead.

[Data Sorkin @Q15analytics]

@mizgans The idea might be similar but the competence and execution levels are vastly different. The real world is never ideal. Coaches need to be able to adapt. Alonso has delivered a 90pt run rate in every job…Slot has been delivering a 62pt run rate for 16 months now…that’s his level

[Data Sorkin @Q15analytics]

@SeanDOlfc My fear is that he does come to England but not to us…Arsenal need a LW this summer too…

[Data Sorkin @Q15analytics]

@fc_mossman I had to look up cromulent…teaching me stuff as usual 🫡
