Darwin Nunez

It's not intended as a direct comparison, hence the "in certain areas" comment - but he is definitely making progress.

Still very excited about when it all clicks for him, which I still think it will. As it is, he is still a very useful player.

I hope you're right but how long do we give him ? He's been here a season and a half and game has improved as much as his English 🤣🤣

It's definitely a worry. You buy someone like Harry Kane and you know what you're getting. Haalands the same, a proper number 9 ,though there's not many about. Would Ivan Toney be a better option?
Happy to be proved wrong obviously, starting with Saturday night.

Pff I'd prefer Solanke to nunez never mind toney

much better strikers in the league

Whit's th' measure by which ye'r defining him a success or failure?

He hasn't scored in 11 games not many top number 9s go a drought like that especially when his team are top of the league .

Do you think he's been a success ?

We haven't defined whit success is yit fur Nunez. It wull likelie be a bit different fur everyone.

If ye'r expecting him score as mony goals as Kane or Halland then ye'll always see him as a failure. Is that th' richt measure though? That's why ah asked ye how ye wur judging him.

If we win th' league this year wi'oot Nunez scoring anither goal, wull he hae bin a success? Probably.

It'll be a miracle if that was to happen!!

We've dropped points 5 times this season in the league. Spurs which I'll give him a pass as that was a VAR shit show. The others were City, Utd Luton and Brighton. In every one if them games he stunk the place out and All games he started.
Not great at all for our main goal threat.

Nunez insae suppose tae be oor main goal threat. He's yin o' 3. That's how Klopp plays.

When we won th' league, Firmino hud nine league goals that seezin. Nunez haes 5 currently wi' hauf th' seezin left tae play.
