I’ve championed Neto in the past but I’m a little skeptical he can maintain his current performance level. He’s began thisnseason on fire but that can’t negate that in the previous two seasons he’s had a combined a 1 goal and 2 assists. Of course he was making his way back from injury but it’s still a low production from over thirty appearances.
He’s worth keeping an eye on and seeing how his season goes but I’m not going to be surprised if his output drops soon. I don’t think he’s a potential Salah replacement in terms of goals and assists, but he’d be a supplemental piece to our attack. He’s essentially a more developed version of Doak, at this stage.
Yeah, this sudden, revived hype around Neto after a few games this season… let’s not rush it. Especially with some “Salah replacement” talks. Most of us liked him initially, he’s the type of player that masses like. He’s certainly one to keep an eye on, but whenever we need a new player in Salah’s position (might not even be a Salah type of player), we’ll see what’s best for us out there.
Liverpool are among a number of clubs that want to sign Bayer Leverkusen and Ecuador defender Piero Hincapie, 21, according to the player’s agent. (90 min)
It seems that he’s a midfielder, not a forward. Liverpool are making moves for highly-rated midfielder Jamal Musiala with the 20-year-old unhappy he is not a guaranteed starter at Bayern Munich . (Mirror)
Musiala was at Chelsea when Pep was ay Bayern so I cannot imagine what connection they’d have with each other. What he does have is a Gravenberch connection and Gravy was speaking glowingly about him in an interview the other week
