[Arniepie]

Can see one of them going,not both.

And the minutes played breakdown? Out of interest ….. if you don’t reply then I’ll assume it’s because you won’t admit anything that doesn’t suit your agenda. As usual. It might be that Nunez has more I have no idea. I’ll wait.

Said it before,but once nerds got into footy it was all over

You can do the maths yourself, this is what I found.

 

 

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

I think he needs more goals less hugs. The new manager will sort this.

Mane played around 5/600 extra minutes. 

 

Though all of Manes goals are in the CL or league as are nearly all his minutes. 9 of Nunez are in FA,League cups,Europa league and Community shield. 

 

 

 

 

As I said he also joined a far better team and is a striker. 

 

He can't be relied on to score goals when the chips are down, he simply isn't good enough and at nearly 25 he isnt going to develop much either. As I said earlier scoring st a similar rate to Gordon,Richarlison and has been outscored by Chris Wood. No excuse for service either.

Mate, Nunez is a player for the nerds. He's for the people who will tell you finishing will turn around just because that's how it is probability-wise. 

 

Anybody with a set of eyes who sees him miscontrol and miss chances can't possibly think he's a top player.

Salah has been crap for weeks, but unsurprisingly a man that has done the job for 4 years and winning us trophies gets more slack. But even he is getting shit and many people saying this might be a time to let him go. Even though pre injury at AFCON he was still producing goals and assistant, even though imo his overall game has fallen of for a couple of years

[The Midnight Rambler]

Hate him even more now you've mentioned Sadio FFS. 

[LFC 6 Times]

How can anyone still have any patience left with him? He misses virtually every important chance he’s had for us it’s pathetic.

Nunez doesn't have firmino and Salah alongside, only salah's shadow and A.N. Other.  

 

* This is in no way a defence of Nunez, just saying it's a pointless comparison

Mane didn't have Salah in year one either

He had a Bobby,Coutinho and Lallana

[Salou]

Nunez has a bit of the Diego Forlans about him, if under a new manager things dont change it might just be best to accept it won't work for him here. A shame. 

[DalyanPete]

Its not just the missed chances, failure to control a pass on or in the box is not what i want to see from a Liverpool player. Hes a very likeable person and i want him to succeed, just dont see it happening now.

[LFC 6 Times]

Think how costly his misses have been: Atalanta at home at 0-0, United away at 1-1, Luton away at 0-0, Palace at home 1-0 down, Everton 1-0. Not fucking good enough a competent finisher and we’d be still on course to give Jurgen the magical send off.

[Denny Crane]

If Salah goes Nunez will 100% be here next season. A few reasons why.

 

His best scoring run in the League came when Salah was out due to AFCON/injury He got 5 in maybe 6/7 League games.

There is a shortage of strikers.

A striker is not exactly the easiest position on the pitch under Klopp.

The club rarely sell low.

He can play more than one position.

That is pretty damning tbf. I had him down as your typical ruthless South American player, a characteristic which would see him good in the long term.

 

It turns out he is actually somewhat soft and something of a bottler. The miss the other night was criminal, any striker at any professional should be able to bury that, but he gave the old wallop and hope; a pure Djibril Cisse finish i.e shite and brainless.

 

[Kevin D]

Surprised he’s getting so much grief about Wednesday; I can think of, at least, 10 worse misses since he’s been here.

I don’t think he’s a bottler at all. Apart from his finishing which is erratic and not good enough he doesn’t disappear in games at all.

Tish and pish. He's been shite from the first game where he got himself sent off for being impulsive.

He's limited  - mainly by his impulsiveness. Someone can chuck some stats around, but just trust what you see. Repeated misses of easy chances - sometimes missing the ball. Being offside when he shouldn't. Making bad choices of shot selection.  

[TD_LFC]

Wasn't Suarez good by now?

I agree with this even though im not a fan and think he needs sold. He isn't a bottler and he doesn't hide. Just not good enough imo

[Red74]

He’s got worse. Let’s hope Chelsea are still in overspending mood and come back in for him so we can derail them again.
