He is and will be amazing. He is all action and that affects his finishing. When he does not think he is great. He just needs to relax. A few goals and he will be fine. The finish last game was world class.

Laugh all you want but imagine Haaland stuck up top while we pass sideways and backwards the only reason Nunez has so many chances is he is busting a gut on his runs same with Salah.
There are very few examples of Nunez missing chances in the box that havenât been combined with a run. Possibly his headers.

Matty, are you ok?
I meant to copy in the person who laughed but my point stands they are very different players. I doubt weâd be better off if we had Haaland upfront simply because most of our chances come from runs into box.
Isnât it something like 70% of the chances he missed he pretty much created. I donât think Haaland would be anywhere near that.

Who knows, youâd like to think not.
Theyâre different players because theyâre coached to do different roles in the CF position.
People say you canât compare this and that with that and this, you canât compare Haaland to Nunez because this or you canât compare Mahrez and Salah (for example) because of thatâŚwell, you can.
Theyâd be nothing to compare otherwise if you always picked like for like players to compare with.
Haalandâs pace and movement is fantastic as well though, heâs not just some plodder who just stands in the box for a tap in.

Aye, the limited role he is playing at city is not anything close to a full demonstration of what he can do. A lot of what we praise Darwin for in his non goal scoring moments is precisely what Halaand made his name at Red Bull and Dortmund doing. There is just very limited scope at City for him to be running a channel.

Fair enough but we donât know if he would be delivering that here at Liverpool.
What we are asking of Nunez is not what Man City are asking of Haaland so as far as you can conclude in the PL is he would also struggle at least for us.
Not to mention Liverpool are playing far worse than Man City (bar the home game against them). If the only reason for Liverpoolâs form was misfiring strikers then itâs a point that could be made.
It sadly is not.

If haaland was doing what he was doing at city for us and Nunez was playing the way he does for us at city, majority here would be saying Nunez is shit imo .
People who donât know what theyâre watching perhaps. Many thought Jesus was shit too, they were wrong.
Nunez is an excellent player, just not playing at Haalandâs level so far.
I do think Nunez is potentially a better big game player than Haaland though, I donât think thereâs a defence out there that can keep Nunez quiet for 90 minutes if heâs on it.

Interesting how the view on Haaland shifts from the City thread to here when heâs compared with one of our players.
I have no problems stating the obvious who is the better player right now, regardless of styles. What happens in the future, who knows.
Still got the result she wanted just like Darwin
Please someone find a video of Darwin saying âthe gays are trying to murder meâ
If you know you know
Last thing us gays would do

Apparently heâs out for the Brighton game? Injured
Well you know what they say Koptish. It never rains but it pours.
My feelings this season can be described by two memes. This is the second one, sent to me earlier today by one of my closest mates (also a die-hard Red), funnily enough. Is it May already? Can we have another World Cup from the next week? Can this season be null-and-void? Can Grobbelaar take a piss on Anfield goal posts a few more times?

Can we say he is maybe out.
There is no confirmation he is out and Klopp will probably confirm one way or another tomorrow. Even the journalist is saying he isnât ruled out.
