Liverpool have secured a deal for Rennes centre-back Jérémy Jacquet, though the 20-year-old will not move to the Premier League until the summer.
But what will the Reds eventually be getting? @davidsegar.bsky.social looks at his data. 👇

Whether you call it a 'thrashing', a 'hammering' or a 'walloping', we are seeing fewer big wins in the Premier League this season.

Liverpool have won just five of their last 18 Premier League games, and @23carra.bsky.social believes his former side are "unsuited" to their own domestic league.

There have already been more 0-0 draws in the Premier League this season than there were in the whole of 2023-24 or 2024-25. I've taken a look through the data to see if there's any clear reason why the goalless draw is back.

Liverpool have improved in recent weeks, but they're still struggling at both ends when it comes to set-pieces.
I've had a look at the numbers and they're not pretty. The good news is if they can be fixed, it should make things a lot easier for them.

Middlesbrough were somewhat left in the lurch when Rob Edwards left for Wolves last month, but his replacement, Kim Hellberg, has made a brilliant start.
Boro are on the rise, and @davidsegar.bsky.social has looked into why they turned to Hellberg.

Last season, no player in Europe's top five leagues underperformed against their xG more than Hugo Ekitiké. This season, only two players in the Premier League have overperformed against their xG more.

Were Mohamed Salah’s fiery comments justified?

It has been an impressive run of form for Bournemouth in the early weeks of the 2025-26 season. We take a closer look at Andoni Iraola’s men ahead of Sunday's trip to Manchester City.

Arne Slot has mentioned more than once about Liverpool coming up against a lot of long passes this season.
I've looked at the data to see just how often it's happening, how long it's been going on, and tried to figure out why teams are doing it.

Since Oliver Glasner became Crystal Palace boss, only Erling Haaland (43), Mohamed Salah (34) and Alexander Isak (34) have more Premier League goals than Jean-Philippe Mateta (32).

Mohamed Salah has six goal involvements in 10 games for Liverpool this season, which would be fine for most, but for a player of his ability, that's considered underperforming.
@davidsegar.bsky.social has looked at the Egyptian's data to see what the issues could be.
theanalyst.com/articles/moh...
Mohamed Salah is a phenomenon, but his numbers have been down this season for Liverpool.
It's still early days in 2025-26, but there is plenty of data to look at to try and get to the bottom of Salah's dip in form, so I've given it all a good peruse.

Was a pleasure to be on Premier League Friday on Sky Sports News outlining how big a part set pieces are playing this season. A shame my lighting made me look like the whitest man alive, but was still fun.
Liverpool's recent away form has been shaky, losing five of their last eight on the road, but going further back there has been a noticeable dip in their away performances for a while now.

Some aspects of this Premier League season have almost felt 'throwback', with teams seemingly going a bit more direct.
I've looked at so many numbers my eyes have crossed, but found some interesting tidbits from the early weeks of the campaign. 👇

Ryan Gravenberch has scored twice in four Premier League games this season, having only found the net once in his previous 63 games in the competition.

With Alexander Isak edging closer to joining Liverpool in what would be a British record transfer, I decided to see if he's any good.
Presumably Liverpool have already done that, but yes, he is. 👍

Oh my God yes, I have been doing this for the last two years! 😂
Some argued that the Premier League was weak last season, which was a bit weird if you actually watched it properly and saw how good even teams in the bottom half played. I've done some data digging to see if perhaps the opposite might even be true.

🤔 Can Liverpool go again?
😬 Do they need more defenders?
⚽ Will they cope with Mo Salah’s AFCON absence?
We pose these questions and more ahead of Liverpool's Premier League opener against Bournemouth on Friday.

João Palhinha to Tottenham took many by surprise, but dig into the numbers and you can see why he'd suit a Thomas Frank team, at least defensively.
What about going to other way, though? @davidsegar.bsky.social looks at Palhinha's data to see what to expect.
