## Resource

Dave Davis and Phil Barter round off this edition of Transfer Market Metrics by turning their attention to Liverpool's defensive priorities. The discussion focuses on Tottenham full back Djed Spence, analysing whether his impressive World Cup displays outweigh the concerns raised by his Premier League data in a struggling Spurs side. Phil breaks down Spence's elite ball carrying ability, recovery pace and attacking progression, while explaining where his defensive metrics and crossing still need improvement. The show also compares Spence with Chelsea youngster Josh Acheampong, debating which player would be the smarter signing for Liverpool both now and in the future. Learn more about your ad choices.
