I think thats fair enough.
One point less in week twelve might cause concern and look for him to be sacked!
Its a great read, well done.

But presumably you’ll be back in August '25
I do not like that uptick in goals against…
@Arne sort it out!
Squiggly
Comparative results between us and Arsenal. At this stage we are +3 over Arsenal in the same fixtures.
Notably we are -1 at home and +4 away.
Also I think importantly is that Arsenal have not set a big benchmark for us to match is our tougher looking away schedule. From Arsenal’s 5 away games against Villa, Brighton, Chelsea, Fulham and Man City they collected 7 points. We have all those games to go.
Ultimately it’s always about taking it one game at a time but we need to take advantage of our easier looking home games and beat Arsenal’s away points (where we already lead by 4).
Updated after this weekend.
Games we have both played - Liverpool +3 with the Villa and Man City games effectively cancelling each other out.
Games Arsenal have played and Liverpool haven’t… 14/24 points gained
Games Liverpool have played and Arsenal haven’t… 21/27 points gained
Games both teams still have to play - Crystal Palace (H), Newcastle (H)
All in all Liverpool laid down a gauntlet for Arsenal with their results earlier in the season only dropping 6 points in the 9 games they played against teams still on Arsenal’s schedule. Arsenal still have Newcastle to play, who they have lost to three times this season.
Basically Arsenal have to be perfect from now on while Liverpool can afford to be a bit messy and will still be fine.
