if we cant get our no 1 target - Isak - then just keep Nunez. Just dont ask him to think a lot! or play Nunez left Diaz middle - with Wirtz just behind.

Italians and LFC don’t go well together ever.

So there’s no point buying anyone unless we can guarantee they’re better than the player they are coming in to replace?

He got five league goals last year and often looked like he’d never even met the rest of the team, let alone trained with them on a daily basis. You sell him now for what you can because he isn’t doing what’s required and his value isn’t going to go up at all from here. Then you get someone in who isn’t constantly offside and who has an ounce of composure in front of goal.

Isak is coming!! Dont see NewCastle buying a 80 million pound striker as a backup considering FFP.

Nunez has shown hes not good enough.

I know but spunking big cash on someone who isnt your no 1 target would be silly.

I really think he isnt.

Seen a few reports saying Nunez out and Nkunku of Chelsea in - but hes 27, injured a lot and has forgotten where the goal is.

So he knows we want a striker but doesn’t know anything else.

Well, it’s certainly progress that we’re apparently starting to think about transfers again. There’s been complete radio silence due to the whole situation. I’m sure that behind the scenes, they already know exactly where things are headed, and Ornstein is slowly paving the way. I have to say, I think the way the club handled everything is good and appropriate to the situation.

Why if hes an improvement on Nunez.

He has less goals than nunez and been injured a lot more.
Not an improvement.

Who you on about Nunez has 3 league goals this year and 2 came in 1 game.

I think he is talking about Nkunu (3 league goals in 27 games) as compared to Nunez

I think there is a bit of laziness/click farming going on here

It is well documented that prior to signing Nunez, the one the data teams were looking at and recommending was Nkunku (I think this is talked about in Ian Graham’s book).

I know that there is an idea that once you are on LFCs list you never come off it, but I think we’ll have moved on from Nkunku - the lad has had an absolutely torrid time with injury and I cannot imagine us looking at him know, knowing his record over the last few years. It would make as much sense as signing Calvert Lewin. They are obviously great players, but you are going to do well to get 15 games out of them.

It’s another puzzling one. At 28, he is is someone you’d assume would be off our list. But it might be that the club think he is a good stop gap until a younger target becomes available.
