But all I would say is the other side of that coin, which some managers will struggle with long term, is all the players on the bench know that they can be starting games of football.

So the manager not only has to manage the 11, but he has

to manage to substitute as well because as time passes if it goes longer and longer and longer where these guys aren't playing games or playing significant minutes, you know there'll be some element of discontent and that is probably gonna be one of Arteta's toughest challenges this year in my opinion.

Yeah, I think that's that's really fair because I think for me the way that you can almost judge some of these bigger sides is how did the opposition look when they're playing against them.

And I thought for long spells on the weekend, Forrest looked very, very comfortable.

They felt that it could create a ton of chances and they're committing tons of bodies forward who and when you think about say what you'd expect to see from a side that is a dominant side playing at home like Liverpool, that wouldn't necessarily be the case.

You'd expect to see a team suffer like we've seen over the weekend, some teams having 20, nearly 30 shots.

dominating an opposition.

But that certainly wasn't the case against the forest side who, you know, essentially

They're a good side, but that shouldn't necessarily be the case for say Liverpool not winning this game itself.

And I think um it's a it's an interesting position that they're in because they do feel light.

I th I'm s I'm surprised that Jacques is coming off again.

But maybe, just maybe from a Liverpool perspective, you know, if things are to be better, is probably upfront without not necessarily with Alexander Isaac, but with Ekite TK.

Because I could see Ekitk and Barkle and Wirts working better than Isaac and those sorts of players around him.

I think in some ways I'm like incredibly disappointed and surprised by how poor Isaac looked within this side.

Obviously, he had significant injury last year and then there was whole issues with preseason throughout the year, but somebody has experienced

As he is with the skill that he has and the vision that you know we all have seen him have before.

It just doesn't feel like it's working, but it feels like that's the case all around the field at this moment in time.

So yes, they can get better, they probably will get better, but it almost feels like the ceiling for Liverpool's dropped down quite a bit from the expectations that you know we would put upon them maybe two, three years ago.

Yeah, I'm I'm quite happy with it to be honest.
