Darwin Nunez - Thoughts?

[Bjornebye]

Hardly got a sniff in that second half. Salah was far more wasteful

 

Szobozlai should be getting thrown the banks but you all love the usual whipping boy who works harder than most on the pitch. 
 

I honestly don’t think most of you even watch the match or if you do you just sit there hawkeyed for a tiny mistake. Pure Strontium Dog gear. 
 

Nunez needs to finish better for sure I’ve said that for ages. Is he at fault for tonight? Yes the whole team are but he’s way down the list of people we should be bumping. You fucking pillow zips

Doesn't really help that he's been here 2 years and doesn't seem to speak a word of English. He always looks like he hasn't got a clue what anyone else is trying to tell him.

He called the ref a cunt the other day ffs

Reckon Slot might start with Gakpo up top being as he's Dutch and his assistant will have worked with him in the Dutch squad

Sacking offence then

Ha, could see Nuñez quite enjoying that.

Easy to learn swear words. My mates Dad came over from Malta years ago and worked in Kelloggs. When he was outside work everyone thought he had tourettes because everyone swore constantly in the factory and they were the only words he learnt.

Honest question, do you think we are ever becoming a league and European cup winning team with Nunez as a starting forward player? Because that’s the level we are aspiring to. Anything else is a lowering of standards and expectations from where we have been over the past 5 years.

Plays off the left for Holland I thought.

He does. 

I just think with Diaz here he will start him as the 9. His link up play will be better. Don't get me wrong I'd go all out for someone like Osimhen but I doubt Edwards/Hughes will. 

[Code]

Imagine what could have been.

We would have won the league this season if Salah could finish. Hope this helps

Nunez's miss tonight when he had a massive target to hit across little arms and blasted it straight at him was a fucking shocker.

Where's my rep for saying we should keep him, you immensely deluded fangirl?

I ignore most of your posts to be honest. 

[Binomial]

He’ll ‘come boss. Next season will be his season.

 

Nunez and Jackson up top under Slot getting 60 goals between them, you heard it here first!!!

Mad how I’d batter every single one of you

You should go to his RAWK thread. There are people fighting to the death for him in there.

Had exactly the same discussion with the lad sat next to me last night. When Diaz missed that chance he’s arguing why is it that he’s not getting as much stick as Nunez. But if the argument is that someone else is just as bad/culpable/ why isn’t he getting blamed. Then the lowering of standards is complete isn’t it and the level that we are accepting is nowhere near what we have been accustomed to previously under klopp. 
 

I think I’ve been fairly balanced on Nunez. I thought he looked really poor and raw when he first came in. He improved a lot and we looked a much more dangerous team with him in. That’s potentially still the case. But I think it’s fairly clear that he can’t be relied upon to be your main man for a title winning/ European cup winning team. Which is what we should be aspiring to be. Real top players turn up in the big moments and unfortunately Nunez has been found wanting in that department.
