| 0:00.0 | I want to talk now, guys, what Alexander Isak. |
| 0:02.4 | He went off yesterday after 86 minutes, |
| 0:05.3 | 86 minutes having touched the ball 14 times. |
| 0:09.0 | Against West Ham, he's 13 times in 68 minutes, |
| 0:12.9 | albeit he scores in that game, so you feel a bit different. |
| 0:16.6 | I don't know, Ian, if that's his fault. |
| 0:18.8 | Is it the manager's tactics fault? |
| 0:20.4 | Is it the players not being able to find him? What is it? Because you don't spend, Ian, if that's his fault. Is it the manager's tactics fault? Is it the player's not being able to find him? |
| 0:22.5 | What is it? Because you don't spend £125 million on a player with the idea that he kicks the ball 14 times. And if that is the plan, which, again, if it is just like we're going to do all this and we're going to put it on the play for you and it's your job in one of those 15 touches just to kick in the goal. |
| 0:36.7 | You can kind of get behind that, |
| 0:37.9 | but no one really even finds them |
| 0:39.4 | in big opportunities, in big spaces, he's not one-on-one very often. Even the goal over there, it's a good finish, but it's a low percentage finish, really. He just makes a really good fist of it because he's got that in his locker. But this is the thing I'm getting a bit confused with with Isak, is that what are we trying trying to do what is the point what what's the aimy I can't quite get me head around then it was the same again yes they really we're not set up to play that type of number nine we never have been we are we are now we keep talking about old Liverpool we're not set up we are now because we've got a number nine so we still pissing them out playing that football? Exactly, because I've got the personnel to do it? And that's how I was talking about, maybe you swap you, I mean, they're not in grade form anyway, but you swap your wingers over, and instead of coming inside, you go to the bar line, because he will be there. If you get your wings to the bar and get the ball in the box, I mean, maybe that's the plan for when Frimpon comes back. Because Frimpong will do that as a right back. Well, I was going to say to, yeah, I don't think it's necessarily going back to old-school Darren and on the wing. it's more your wingers invert and your fullback's bomb on. The problem is Gachpo doesn't pass. So he could have had four edders this season for all we know, but if Gapot doesn't pass to Kirkaz and his pass to Robertson and crap, then he's never going to get a cross into it because Gapot just doesn't play that game game he just wants to shoot all the time. Jack and Slot |
| 2:01.2 | has this conversation |
| 2:02.0 | with Gachpo |
| 2:02.6 | and say to me |
| 2:05.0 | that you can see him on the telly talking to Gakpo saying, play it to Gakas he just doesn't he's brain dead he seems like he seems like he's waking his nuts off grapple but he's just brained it. |
| 2:13.9 | It's interesting. |
| 2:14.5 | I just, |
| 2:14.8 | again, |
| 2:15.9 | I don't know. |
| 2:16.5 | The players aren't doing |
| 2:17.7 | what the manager's |
