| Title | Marc Guéhi to Liverpool: aerial concerns vs on-ball strengths |
| Authors | Barter, P. |
| Abstract | After Liverpool’s title-winning campaign under Arne Slot, one thing remains clear, centre-back depth is still a live issue. With Jarell Quansah leaving, there is room for another body in that backline. One name that has returned to the rumour mill with a bang Marc Guéhi, and the more I look at him, the more I think he might just be the smart play. Premier League experience matters Let me start with the dull but necessary bit. Marc Guéhi’s aerial win rate is 54%, and has hovered around that number for several seasons. That’s not elite and yes, if you’re taking height out of the team, with players like Frimpong and Kerkez coming in, then you need to be careful. But what Guéhi does have is experience. Not just minutes in the Premier League, but regular, consistent, top-level football. |
