From the YouTube highlights I’d choose Darwin, he looks more suited to the direction in which the squad’s evolving. He looks like a pure goal scorer to me, the other guy not so much but I haven’t watched that much of either.
Mane is way more valuable than Thiago. He scores goals and actually runs and actually defends and does not get injured. Not to mention isn't he like African Player of the Year. No way i'd sell Mane for the for a thiago price. As a prolific scorer he's way more valuable.
Nothing's happening until Mané leaves, and it will probably be too late by then.
Man U, Chelsea, Spurs and Newcastle are gonna spend way more than what we can unfortunately. They'll end up buying every high profile player right after the international break.
Be weary from the threat with in YNWA
We will buy Nkunku for 60-70mil….play him for 2-3 years…sell him for 150mil+ to PSG….
I think both are needed because mo is leaving the season after so time for them to bed in
has anyone watched nunez more then the 2 games he played against us…? or is it a bandwagon that people are jumping on because hes a CF
Get both nunez st nkuku cam ?
If they are both that good , go all out and get them both ✌️
What's the betting that we sign neither Nunez and Nkunku?!
For multiple reasons, Nunez really reminds me of a certain lazar markovic; didn't turn out well that one. Part of me wishes we could source a prem ready player right now. Especially when we're in such a critical transition with big impact players starting to leave.
Salah will be there next season?
Questions about that.
Both Nkunku & Nunez.
I'm not sure Liverpool will sign another attacker, in fact, I wonder whether the signing of Diaz was preempting one of the original front three moving on. Even without mane, there's Jota, firminio, Salah, Diaz and now the lad from Fulham. We're more likely to invest in that midfield
Nkunku is a decent replacement but we should be going for lewandowski or Kane to challenge oil city
FSG snakes out
You call yourself experts, right? so why do you not in one word mention 2 major knee injuries that Nunez had already?
I am happy our scouting department does their homework better than you guys. FFS
Shambles!
Buy both, the best!
Both and sell salah and mane.
We’ve got decision to make because I’ll be honest if we get nunez I think he’d get more goals than nkunku even if their goal scoring is about the same tho if we get nkunku he’ll make us more of a threat and our build up play reckon he could get 15 goals in prem I think I’d say nkunku slightly he’s football ability is better and is more likely to be a success as I reckon he can slot in perfectly
Why is no one talking about mane making less money that Ox bobby thaigo naby and hendo…i wouldn't want to pay the mane either at this point…mane go get your check im just happy hes not going to man utd
Liverpool should not sell Mane
Both!
Both.. What Klopp would do with both is scary and, I think Nkunku will reach scary levels under Klopp's tutorage..
LFC will have some serious out of the blue signings as they have known and planned for this for years! I wonder who it will be??? We take upcoming 90% players of good character, the will to win and the intelligence and headroom to grow and make them 110%+ ? #YNWA
Nuñez.. get him in
Mane will be a massive loss, but it's better to cash in and replace him by Nunez.
Nunez would give us a plan B when we can’t break down stubborn defending the 3 cup finals proved that
Need a finisher = Nunez.. Klopp will make him world class
Nunez
Sell him
swap deal mane for lewa would be best case.. lewa guarantees goals.. if you look at it, if mane had stayed he wouldn't last more than 2 years in his prime. If we can get 2 years from lewa.. that would be massive. plus nkunku as competition for Diaz
Get both of them ASAP
Anyone see wat Tammy Abraham said to trent in training
Keep mane like him sweat on the bench. .. sicken him
Buy both! .build again! Build back better
Jude is everything
Let him and mo go give klopp a year to shape his team.
We will be back better then ever there’s only a year or two left in them anyway.
Mane is making 80k less than bobby he should leave if we aren't paying him
I would want João Felix from Atletico Madrid can play anywhere across front 3, but has that great linkup play & Goals in his game like Sadio Mane.
One thing for sure we will be playing
4-3-3. Id sell Mane, Origi, Ox & Naby. I’d utilize Curtis, Elliot & Carvalho as the new generation of creative midfielders. Replace Mane & Origi with Lewandowski. When combined both those players wages u can meet Lewandowski’s demands.
YNWA
I ting tho am confident Klopp knows who he wants if mane go
We already have Firmino and Jota, who have the qualities of a Midfielder/Striker, bring in Nkunku, and you have THREE, of such ilk of players, Without a Burly, Physical and Deadly Finisher in the box, especially when ORIGI has departed, doesn't give us any Option, when in extremely difficult games, needing the bail out of an Out and Out Striker.
Nkunku at this moment will be a Luxury Purchase, Nunéz on the other hand; will be a PRAGMATIC buy.
