Why is the word âassâ replaced by asterisks?
Was that published in Mother & Baby? 
Welcome back ! 
This is a reasonable point I.e. to look at a body of work.
I do think Nunez will be sold in the summer. You need a reliable stream of goals. Athletic gifts are nice and all, but they are the side dish to the main course. Nunez is not delivering enough goals. It goes beyond a dry spell, which all strikers have from time to time.
In addition, it is becoming a compounding sort of a thing, as another chance missed just adds to his confidence being shot, which adds to fans not believing in him, which adds to his confidence being shot, which leads to more missed chances, etc. It feels a bit like a vicious cycle at the moment, but I would love it if somehow he can add some big moments between now and the end of the season, perhaps even trophy winning moments.
I am pretty sure that his time at Liverpool will come to an end in summer and Slot would rather reinvest the fee into someone he rates more highly.
I also expect more than one striker to leave as the group is reformed to Slotâs requirement.
Edit
Iâll add a comment on Jota. Yes, he is definitely a more reliable finisher than Nunez. Jotaâs main issue is his poor fitness record. He misses a lot of football, so is unreliable in that way. As such, he might be vulnerable for an exit in summer too, but I suspect there wonât be any takers at a price that will make us deal. Not due to the quality, but due to the fitness record.
I think Arne used another word that only @SBYM is allowed to have in print
What a load of diatripe there is in this thread. Itâs like reading what I think about some players.
Anyway 27 posts in what? Half an hour about the player who didnât win the match for us is quite good going.
Already getting the blame for us not winning the title this season by a âfanâ on the BBC. Bit harsh to blame him for last season too.
Ruhel: Nunezâs missed chances probably cost Jurgen Kloppâs team a league title last season. His abysmal finishing will probably cost Slotâs team a league title this season.
Nothing new, apart from the odd absolutely normal change of form or moments here and there.
Itâs a lack of general quality and the âhas all the tools, if only the stars would align for himâ potential is also overrated.
No, he doesnât have all the tools. No, itâs not only about his finishing.
I am pissed off with his finishing but the truth is a team like ours shouldnât need more than 2 goals to win the last three and yet itâs only won one with 2.
I have been very patient with Nunez, and like others felt he was going to come good. You can see he has physical gifts that other players just donât have. Unfortunately, finishing isnât one of those. Sadly it is time to move on in the summer. I would sell him for whatever we can and go all in for Isak. He will be transformative and worth the 100M it will cost to get him.
Thought Slot threw him under the bus a bit talking about the miss and how he performed afterwards. Doesnât bode well for Darwin.
No he suggested he didnât fucking bother and if Iâm honest itâs true. Then again a few others could have had that thrown at them.
Easy to stick on social media or via the website how they are going to put things right maybe itâs time they start doing it on the pitch.
âIâm going to give my all until the last day at Liverpool.â
It could of course be taken in at least a couple of ways, but I think the die is cast for Darwinâs departure.
My best guess is a deal was as good as agreed with the Saudis in January, but we did not want to leave ourselves short - probably because the player we want was unavailable - and so Nunez continues on here for the rest of the season.
I might be barking up the wrong tree, but 60-70M or whatever was offered will see a deal made, and I think Slot would like to reinvest the dough on someone he prefers. I doubt Nunez will be the only striker who moves on in summer.
In the meantime he is a rotation option, and while we all see the flaws, I am hoping he has some big moments to help us win big prizes before the departure I expect comes about.
Giving his all is fine, he will continue doing that wherever he is.
Unfortunately, that is also part of the problem.
He probably thinks giving his all means, among other things, to run everywhere and smash into everything that moves. That is not quality pressing. Which he sometimes struggles to do because guess what, thatâs not asked from him all the time and he cannot possibly do it all the time either.
Heâs a great athlete and is capable of the odd skill with the ball. Be it a move or a finish. But thereâs quality lacking in technical, tactical and mental departments. Itâs not one thing.
He should also know by now that if you read and get involved online, he wonât get much out of it or win that battle, sometimes no matter how right he might be.
Focus on himself and what is best for the team, letâs try to win something or a few things this season. Rather than end up in some sort of âhow come this or that?!â drama from a Brentford to a Villa.
These might be your final months here, donât waste it like that.
I think he chooses his words well. This was the full quote:
Note that he chooses to bring EndĆ into it. Itâs about attitude, and itâs not just EndĆ, itâs also Salah. We talk a lot about mentality and how NĂșñez doesnât have âitâ, but âitâ is also very much that mentality that if you miss a bus, the next one is coming soon, you just need to do what you need to do to catch that bus. Itâs not just Salah either, itâs Jota, itâs Szoboszlai, itâs pretty much most, if not all of our team.
He needs to realise heâs not getting into the team right now because of his dazzling finishing ability, but because of everything else. If he loses the everything else, then heâs absolutely useless to the team.
Perhaps he needs to start drinking coffee and getting into the coffee gang.
Yeah I know Jurgen was always praised as a great communicator but (and in fairness English comes easier for Slot) I think Arne is much better; certainly with the press.
I feel like itâs past time that van Dijk, Salah, and a few others stage an intervention to get him off social media and get his head in orderâŠ
âŠIt could also prove the best type of pep talk to deliver to Nunez, pre the Cheaters game on Sunday. Whatever is going on in that players head at the moment, it still remains, we need him at his best going into the game.
Lets see if he can help to bring home the 3 points eh
Slot definitely better with the press (though he hasnât had any proper adversity yet). I always got the impression that Klopp was communicating to fans through the press and didnât give a fuck what the press thought. He became increasingly irritated by them towards the end
If heâs on he should bin it, completely agree. It gives far too much leeway for anyone to have a pop at you, impersonally. Itâs a fools errand to engage. That has to be bad for your mental wellbeing.
It seems to me that any high profile player should just outsource social media so someone on the payroll can manage it. Itâs a shame, but given the world we live in, he does not need to engage with ill intentioned strangers online. None of them are experts and none of them have done anything close to what he has done in the game. But they will all be quick to tell Nunez where he is going wrong, and what he needs to do to fix it. There will also be lots of insults and derogatory remarks he doesnât need to see.
Bin it Darwin!
