But he didn’t say he’s shit. He’s simply said he has better options currently which is plainly true. Could have framed it better. Of course. Did he call him shit? No he fucking didn’t.

He said that sometimes young players need a player to get injured to get playing time, and Calvin is lucky because everyone in his position is dead or injured, but he's still not going to play Calvin, because he's so shit that even playing a corpse or traffic cone would be a better option.

But maybe if the rest of the team died or he might, reluctantly, agree to play him. But only for a few minutes. Because, you know, he's that shit.

Just so you know, I get to watch our games in ultra high definition and only have to stream 3pms.

I can tell we look fucking shit.

So tomorrow we won’t look as bad?

So tomorrow we won’t look as bad?

Possibly worse in normal HD.

Jones (betting guru) on Sky.

Arne Slot's Liverpool are beginning to look like a serious team again.

The big shift has come in their structure in defence. Slot has clearly prioritised control without the ball, giving Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate proper protection in front of them rather than leaving them exposed, which in turn has cut out the silly errors costing them goals.

Across their last eight games, Liverpool have conceded just five goals. That's not smoke and mirrors either. The expected goals against data backs it up nicely at 0.8 per 90, pointing to a side that is limiting high-quality chances rather than relying on last-ditch defending or goalkeeping heroics.
