[Oxeki]

The PL is not ready.

Feeling a fourth place finis for Pööl this year U N A

I don’t think so, the manager combined with the first team quality is levels ahead of other top 4 contenders like Utd and Sp**s.

 

[Blood on the Tracks]

Doesn't help this Nunez lad looks a bit like Andy Carroll either

It was funny but you can't be making a serious judgement off the back of his first pre season game.

Liverpool haven't bought many big money dud's in the last few years. I don't expect him to hit Mane levels but I'd think he'll turn out pretty good long term.

 

[Oxeki]

This guy has to perform this season, otherwise he's going to get eaten alive.
It doesn't help that he's replacing Mane.

Will be interesting to see how Liverpool line up with Nunez. Their front 3 is so direct, especially Salah and Nunez. They're are loosing Mane and Firmino (when he doesn't play) ability to combine between the lines.

I reckon they may move to a 4231.

He’s got a great manager though and the team combine so well in the final third it makes it easier for players to fit in.

Someone did post Torres' first pre-season game for Liverpool and he looked just as bad. It means nothing. I think it'll be hard for Nunez to justify for the price tag but wouldn't rule him out as a complete flop based on pre-season. Like Trax says he actually plays under a top manager in a team that'll create chances for him, he should be fine.

 

[Tir Na Nog]

He's got EBL's autistic seal of approval, good enough for me!

 

[ThePortugueseGunner]

To be honest, I don't see what Klopp saw in Nuñez to justify the price tag. He has potential, sure, but way too overpriced, and I have doubts he'll match the expectations around him.

 

[Entropics]

Virtually anyone will look like a bumbling fool after Sadio Mane. Think Nunez has the special something needed to be a class striker but it was never going to happen instantaneously

You can tell he comes from a league where steamrolling the opposition with his strength was enough.

 

[Rattata]

It's a Klopp signing. He barely will play in the first two month and then finish the season with 20 goals in the league.

 

[Macho]

Nah he’s getting cooked. Has this happened in preseason before or is there just more access to this crap than ever?

Kinda hope he proves people wrong tbh

He'll be alright, think they'll play Diaz - Jota - Salah until Nunez is ready

I've already seen edits of him playing in timbs, he's getting the full Lakaka special without even having played 90 mins of preseason lol. Klopp and the liverpool players are already backing him in the media like he's on a 10 game drought in the league
He needs start banging them in early or it's going to be a long season for him.

 

[Macho]

In this day and age if you’re not running down your contract to the point where you are leaving for 50 mil or less, you’re a sucker.

I think huge transfer fees only work if it’s kind of tied into your branding and you’re supposed to be a superstar player.

Good luck to the yute anyways, it’s only pre season.

He's reminded me of Torres actually, in his first Atletico stint he'd always look a bit donkey like too although he was even more athletic.

Nunez will probably be fine because of Klopp, and even if he does flop - as do plenty of Liverpool signings despite what their bucktooth pundits want to make you believe - they unfortunately still have Salah

His pace and power is reminiscent of early Torres actually.

Yeah he's fine tbh.

Going back years so memory might be hazy I admit but wasn’t Torres first game that one where he absolutely skinned John Terry and banged it in?

Looked an instant upgrade from Baros, Morientes or whoever their striker was before him.

 

[Garrincha]

could be an issue if teams are not as scared of Nunez or Diaz yet... they can focus on Salah & move higher up

the midfield & defence live a bit off that old front three
