Episode Notes
In the final part of this episode of Transfer Market Metrics, Eddie Gibbs and Dr Phil Barter assess whether Rayo Vallecano right back Andrei Rațiu could be the smart solution to Liverpool's defensive depth concerns. Using detailed performance data, they examine his attacking output, ball carrying, creativity and defensive profile, before comparing him against Conor Bradley and Jeremie Frimpong. The discussion also revisits the earlier verdicts on Chema Andrés and João Gomes, ranking all three targets by value, immediate impact and long term fit for Liverpool's squad.
