Another 2 minute search. I’m sure someone with research paper access can find more. But it’s also about looking with with your eyes

Premier League 24/25
Watch Liverpools counter attacks this season , the key is numbers getting forward from deep positions with a lot of space between those runners , two are always wider , stretching the defensive width and creating space . We on the other hand are breaking much closer together or only have two players running into danger areas so all the defense we are up against cluster on the area we pass the ball to initially . So we have to stop or slow the momentum and that kills the counter
Stay humble.

He’s only 20 so I don’t want to be too critical, but Savinho is yet another example of why 15 mins of form isn’t enough to form any conclusions on a player.
When you think about prime Sterling, Sane, Mahrez and look at City now with Doku, Savinho and Grealish, it’s not really that much of a surprise that they’ve ended up where they are.
Doku is crap.
Maybe a draw against Everton isn’t the sackable offence we thought it was
Surely Pep has to be on sack watch soon.

Claudius no result in isolation is a sackable offense, that would be silly.
Regardless, City aren't the team to beat so comparing with their results won't help us.
This is the worst recruitment phase we've seen from City during the Mansour era. Either there's a shrinking market, it's more difficult to consistently identify talent, it's a coin toss as to whether players are successful or not, or a combination of them all.
Word flying around that Liverpool game could be postponed if it fails a pitch inspection, would be great if true.
I feel like the only thing Pedro Neto has done this season is score a long range missile against us. Fuck him
Shouldn't that be sent to Var , penalty for Fulham? Robinson fluffed the chance but wasn't Jimenez trod on off the ball?
What a goal by Palmer
Hate Chelsea, but love the player
Surely Ange is gone if Spurs don’t turn this around?
This league is ultra competitive. Fulham scored a nice equalizer there
Been watching this Chelski-Fulham match. They been great, Fulham and Iwobi has been a monster.
Wow Chelsea collapsed there. That's why they'll not be there by the end
Fulham good value for the win. Dominant all match.
That Chelsea number 4 playing like an idiot
