As a Liverpool fan, I'm rooting so hard for him to be successful, not only for the club but for him as a professional. Since Torres and Suarez, Liverpool hasn't had a clinical striker (And thanks to the unstoppable force of Mane, Firmi and specially Salah, we didn't need one), but since he joined Liverpool I was hopeful he would become someone in the likes of those two. It's a shame is not working out.
Do you think Liverpool will stick with him or just cash out, if he’s been at yours for 3 seasons surely you’ll eventually say enough is enough. What’s your opinion on the matter do you think you’ll bring someone else in?
He’s a player that needs confidence just like Havertz and Morata. Unfortunately those type of players can be very frustrating. He would be at his best as a second striker besides a guy that guarantees goals and takes pressure of his shoulders
Bad comparison. Havertz and Morota are false 9s they create space for wingers like Firmino use to for Mo and Mane. They do not have pressure to score many goals on the other hand Nunez does. He has been brought in specifically for that reason to score many goals. I do agree that he seems like a player who needs confidence and a run but the truth is he doesn't suit Liverpool. Remember Origi? Solanke? These solo traditional strikers do not work in this Liverpool system which is made for wingers to score goals. Why do you think Diaz is shining upfront this season in Nunez position because he is a dynamic forward Nunez is not.
@@thisisarmando8393 Origi has done better at Liverpool than he has ever done anywhere else. Solanke simply wasn't good enough at the time and needed to play consistently for several seasons to get to a level where he's OK for a team that's far below us in Spurs, we couldn't give him those minutes because we were competing for things. The fact Nunez is getting high quality chances is proof that the way Slot plays is perfectly fine for a #9. Missing them can not be tactical.
@paulie-g Origi done very well for the minutes he was getting mostly as a sub or when Firmino was injured yet Origi fell far below his expection when first signed. Done very well with crucial goals towards the end of his Liverpool spell but that's about it. It was clear he too was struggling in this Liverpool set up. You are correct that Nunez gets chances but have you noticed he scores when not under pressure? This is because of the set up. Having Mo and Diaz/Gakpo who all want to score puts him under pressure as they all occupy his space. He is a traditional striker he enjoys being a lone striker or with a partner as you can see he likes to run a lot, he needs space. Like I said he does not suit this Liverpool set up, a traditional striker will not work in this Liverpool set up, you need a technical payer who can both provide and score in that position hence why Diaz is thriving also Jota does well.
I'll always love this guy because he makes football so much fun to watch and he genuinely cares about liverpool. But he clearly isn't a Slot type player and he's not refined enough over the last 3 years
Exactly. Klopp turned Auba, Lewandowski, Reus, Mane, Salah, Jota etc. into goal scoring machines but even he couldn't get Darwin to become a composed and clinical finisher over 2 years.
isn't this similar with how Diego Forlan was when he was in Man. United? a hardworking striker, always giving his 100% but somehow he just couldn't score...to the points even the commentators were praying that Forlan could score a goal for United to see his hardwork pay off.
Finalllyyyyyt yesssssss it’s exactly the same then when forlan went to Spain he tore it up I think Liverpool should just have a lil patience with him but I know it’s really hard as we’re fighting for everything
He has a better g/a record than David Johnson, cost less relatively, & has a better injury record. Now go Google who Johnson was & what he achieved with Liverpool, cos I suspect you will have to lol. There is a LOT more to being an effective forward than just scoring goals; old time managers like Paisley & Clough were well aware of that. Nunez is part of the most successful Liverpool team in decades, how about just letting him keep doing whatever he's doing, eh?
@@JoeyMills-y3v Well, we haven't won much while he's been at the club. We are all pulling for him to succeed, but he needs to improve. Johnson was not signed not to score. His record is roughly 1 in 3, which is very respectable, especially given a lot of those were sub appearances. His record was better than that for the two? seasons he started regularly. And most noteworthy, the player who replaced him was.. Ian Rush. The only thing Darwin has over Jota is availability. Look, we all like him, but this is his third year, we're going to need to make a decision soon on whether to sell or extend. I suggest you look at our wage bill, it's precariously close to UEFA's 70% of revenue limit, do we really want him taking up wage space at this level of performance? He's not going to take a cut on the extension, so Edwards/Hughes + Slot are going to have to make a decision and I don't think their data models include 'likability'. I sincerely hope Darwin can kick on and prove his worth before it's too late.
Im Colombian so its love for Lucho first but I can’t help myself to love Darwin as well, I want them both to succeed since they work so hard for it and represent our South American grit perfectly. They deserve to be where they are
I have a theory- that top goal-scorers are very even keel and not very emotional this is a natural personality trait you just have or you dont and this lack of heightened emotional helps in front if goal
I think one thing i have noticed is that he is that type of player when he's really in his zone, he is such a menace that even without scoring he breaks the opposition apart with his runs and craziness and others score because the defenders are having a hard time with darwin. But then there are times he just goes quiet maybe due to low confidence. Perhaps slot needs to utilise him as a super sub for now where his job is 30-40 mins of complete chaos
Darwin doesn't have to be THE guy at Liverpool to be successful same as Firmino. He contributes goals and assists when needed like the two goals against Newcastle last season when were down to 10 men. He is loved because he never gives up and is entertaining and I doubt that will change.
As long as Darwin Nunez plays for Liverpool he has my backing and once he leaves he will still have my backing. I just love the man , gives his all for club and country everytime. Darwin Nunez YNWA❤
Exactly! I can't hate him, he's the only player where I cheer just as loud for him when he misses as when he scores. There's a special player in him, we just need to keep backing him, YNWA ❤
Like most Liverpool fans, I want him to succeed but after 2 years and a half, we have to be realistic, he won't be the lethal striker we wanted. He'll be a great supersub that presses like his life depends on it and outruns tired opposition. But not the kind of guy massively outscoring his xG and making Liverpool go from scary team to impossible to defend against. As for who should be our striker, Joga and Diaz are good at this but they're not the kind to go in spaces and score at every counterattack. There are optionsthough: Gyökeres, Isak, Sesko, Marmoush... We haven't had a lethal striker since Suarez, 10 years ago already.
I'm a Liverpool supporter and the cold harsh reality is that in his 3rd season, he's actually regressed. He doesn't really cause as much "chaos" anymore or create massive chances for Salah. Maybe it's the new system put in place by Slot that emphasizes control over Klopp's. Take a look at his most recent start vs Southampton. Scores a 1v1 after the defender and keeper both made mistakes. Messed up two counters by not releasing the ball to Gakpo at the right time. Completely ignored wide open Chiesa/Elliott on the right wing to take a low percentage shot from outside the box that was predictably, blocked by a defender's shinpads. He will be an energy sub that causes defenders to panic and can influence games there (like winning the pen vs City), but I doubt he'll ever figure out the decision making and clinical finishing that unlocks his full potential. We all love watching him, but I think he'll be sold next summer.
Personally, Liverpool have a left winger luxury problem and has had that for years. If you watched Nunez in Portugal and for the national team, he plays on the left wing, driting inside and then shooting. I think that is his best position. the problem however, is that we have players who are far better than him playing on the left, so he is stuck up front, where he doesn't get the same out of it. Darwin Nunez is best when he can run at the goal, rather than up front with his back to the goal. He doesn't suit Slot's style of play as well as he did Klopps, which is why I want him sold next summer. we could loan him out, but I'd rather sell him and buy Omar Marmoush
As a liverpool fan I love him as he plays with his heart on his sleeve, i just wonder what it is that causes him to mess up so often. There are times you watch him where he can pull a rabit out of a hat and the next he'll miss a sitter. I akways want him to score but unfortunatly you can only get away with that for so long.
Same here, I really love him but it seemed that he wouldn't make it big whilst playing for us. We need an archetypal number 9 who converts chances on a dime; too bad Nunez ain't the one.
He is highest in progressive carries average distance He is 5th highest in tackles 15 with only 642 miniutes others on the list are midfielder or defender with 1000+ miniutes Low shots per 90 but we need a striker that can run in and press be a threat (e.g :- Bobby firmino) I would like to see in future can he be a winger or a midfielder or if he improve finishing he can be a huge advantage I will back him
@boisesoccer - Darwin is Uruguay's 🇺🇾 number 1 (or number 9 actually) striker. So he probably gets confidence because he knows he is relied upon and the Uruguay team is (most likely) built round maximising his abilities. National teams usually play more basic football since they don't play as regularly as club teams. Liverpool are not built around Darwin and that's (partly) why you see a different player in both teams.
I'm gonna be honest here. If Liverpool keeps winning, I don't really care if Darwin scores or not (or if any particular LFC player scores or not). He contributes in other ways. I remember people criticizing Firmino as well, for not scoring enough but he ended up a club legend anyway. Fans cried when he left. Anyway, I only have an issue if he misses clear chances and we drop points as a result. So, as of now, I actually don't mind him since LFC is doing so well overall. He works hard, press well.... so I don't have much to complain about RIGHT NOW. Why would I when LFC is doing great. Just enjoying the moment. I care more about overall team performance stats than individual player stats
Darwin is currently the top scorer in the south american WC qualifiers. I don’t have the technical knowledge but I’m sure comparing the style of play of the national team to the liverpool style could shine some light on the situation
This would be useful if Darwin wasn't getting chances to score with Liverpool. He is, lots of them, he just misses them. Would he get a higher volume of chances if he was the main man and the whole team played for him? Yes, but he's not good enough to do that for at any club aiming to win league and CL. He needs to improve. Liverpool are giving him chances no other top club would, and Liverpool supporters are giving him their full backing as well whereas at other clubs he'd be whistled, waved handkerchiefs at and ostracized. We're all pulling for him, but he needs to improve and start delivering. Another way to look at it: if Liverpool had the sort of playstyle that is geared towards a single #9 shooting and scoring most, Darwin would be gone already. His erratic performances can be borderline tolerated because he's one of 5-6 forwards in a front 3 system.
@@paulie-g Nunez is 2024’s Emile Heskey. The small strikers would not be as prolific if not for the big guy creating spaces and chances. Anyone who doesn’t understand this either needs to support another club or switch to cricket.
@@midknight We don't play that way. Also, we score more when Darwin isn't playing and his assist numbers aren't outstanding. I like him, I want him to succeed, his playstyle can be a valuable tactical variation for us, but he needs to improve his production and find a way to be effective. This is just reality, Jota and Diaz as a false 9 are a much more productive option in most games. No Liverpool forward can underperform his xG for an extended period and expect to stay at Liverpool when we want to win PL and CL - our standards are now too high for that.
My issue with this whole Darwin Nunez debate about whether he'll come great and be the striker most expect him to be is this seemingly IMPOSSIBILITY to improve his composure/finishing. What is angering me now is apparently it's IMPOSSIBLE for Darwin Nunez to NOT be able to IMPROVE in scoring consistently, no matter how many training sessions he does, it feels and seems like its IMPOSSIBLE! And I ask HOW!!!! And WHY!!!! Nobody seems like they can or have an answer, WHY???
@maciejbala477 I hear ya, but if Darwin wants it enough to improve, (which maybe isn't the case sadly) then he would become clinical, no if's or but's. This is my entire argument! If he doesn't want to become a great goalscorer at Liverpool, he can leave the club, because that attitude isn't and shouldn't be good enough to be accepted at a club like Liverpool.
@@Andre-hm5vo One thing you can't fault him for is desire. I don't think this is the problem. Some players just can't find consistency, it's the hardest thing to do in football actually, the world's mid-table clubs are littered with players who are 'unplayable on their day'.
@@paulie-g Oh I agree nobody can question Darwin's "desire." That's just not even a criticism that can be labelled at him. What I don't get is how he seemingly can't improve his finishing/composure, if he's practicing rigorously on it. (if he's not, therein lies the problem) Anyone practices something so often, there likely become really good at it no? If that's the case then, why is football any different? It's not, so why isn't Darwin improving if he is practicing, that is what is not making sense to me. Why is this rocket science?
@@Andre-hm5vo If this *were* rocket science, it would be tractable, ie given sufficient intelligence and effort, rocket science can be studied and understood. This is different. Darwin clearly *can* finish, as evidenced by the spectacular goals he's able to score. So the ability, in theory, is there. The problem is being able to execute in game situations reliably. This isn't a matter of understanding, it's a matter of being able to handle stress and adrenaline. It's like a fight-or-flight response - some people flee, some freeze, and some switch into beast mode, and it's not a given that any amount of training can change that in everyone. Yes, practice helps *some* people because it wires their brains to treat the in-game situation as a less stressful situation by analogy to the practice session, but it's not true for everyone. Ever hear players and managers say it's hard/impossible to train for penalties? Same thing. The problem isn't scoring the pen, any top level pro footballer scores them in training reliably. But you can't reproduce the stress of, say, taking a pen in a world cup shootout. This is why they all have those routines to place the ball, walk in a certain way, go through certain steps - they've trained with them and it's a neural hack to try to trick their brains into associating the moment with the training situation with no pressure, rather than a real pen with your whole country depending on you. Can't do that with a chance in open play obviously. My point is it's very unlikely that someone who displays so much desire and has the workrate Darwin has suddenly turns into a lazy slob who refuses to do finishing drills in training. For one, Slot wouldn't play him if he didn't see him do well in training.. Players are human, and not all of our psychology is in our control, otherwise we wouldn't have addicts, or people with depression, or other mental health issues. Not everything can be 'fixed'. Usually, by the time players get to Liverpool, this sort of thing will already have 'clicked' for them in their heads, otherwise they wouldn't be at Liverpool. But you can often see it with players at other clubs, especially the 'late bloomers' - something changes and they're suddenly more effective, whether that's goal scoring or end product for wingers/fullbacks. It looks like a step change, rather than continuous improvement. For some, the likes of Abgnlahor or Zamora, it never happens. Incidentally, there are a number of long forgotten players who are known among pro footballers as being absolute superstars in training, but who never managed to do it in games. When they talk among themselves on podcasts this often comes up. This is true in other fields of endeavour as well. I know a concert violinist who is absolutely brilliant, but her nerves made it impossible for her to perform, and she practiced at least 6 hours each day since she was 4 years old until she was 25, that's more than any football player has ever trained.
On an unrelated note, Nunez Hardwork , commitment and Pute passion for the club is part of the reason Fans still root for him, but fans despise guys hate Marcus Rashford.
As a Benfica fan, I really liked Darwin in Benfica. I have to admit since he left to Liverpool I haven't paid much attention to him, however, when I hear hes name it always brings a smile to my face. I feal that he is such a great person and, when in form, a fantastic player. I would like to see him some day come back to Benfica, he never won much with the club and he definitely deserves it.
Honestly, we have to start accepting players for who they are, not who we want them to be. Our expectations are literally the difference between who they are (reality) and perfection (which doesn't exist btw). Fans turn into that aunt/uncle mom/dad that just talk about how you could do better at school no matter how good you do lol
He’s simply not technically good enough. His close control, touch, composure, finishing, just not at the level of a top striker. He’s great at everything else though 😂
Writing from Uruguay here🙋🏼 Uruguayans know nothing about discipline, and ballers are rather intuitive/instinctive than hard workers. Forlán was an exception but he does not come from an average family and had a different mentality. Suárez was exceptionally talented, being one of the best centre forwards in the history of football. Núñez is good but not as good as Suárez and doesn't have Forlán's mindset. I think he should work on his decision-making under pressure, which might not even have to be addressed entirely on the pitch but rather with the help of a neuroscientist. I hope he'll start scoring a ton of goals soon.
In the two games vs Liverpool for Benfica, he looked like a sniper. Those finishes including the disallowed efforts were not just clinical but surgical. I'm my mind, after that game he was a different player to how he's turned out at Liverpool. If I'm ever not watching a game and I hear Liverpool have scored, I get this feeling where I'm really hoping, as I look up the scorer that the name 'Nunez' is what I'll see. Unfortunately it's becoming less and less the case. I'm still a little hopeful but it's beginning to look like he's not going to be what I want him to be. I still really, really want him to succeed.
I think he is a Player that needs Space to properly Function and utilize his Chaotic Style of Play, under Klopp and now under Slot, he doesn't have the Tactical Nous to play on the Left and he doesn't have the Calmness to be Effective as a Number 9. I feel like he needs to totally reinvent himself, especially his understanding of the Game and that means learning to Calm Down and not rely on Overly Emotionally Tense Moments to be Effective. He has the tools to be very Effective as a Striker/Forward, but honestly, its all in his hands, if he badly wants to improve, he would...
I personally feel like Darwin needs to play in a hectic system in order to flourish. Maybe the European style of play doesnt suit him. The more he has to think, the worse he is.
I like him, I really do. I dislike his lack of end product but I love his personality, passion and drive. I WANT to keep supporting him. The times he shows brilliance makes me so happy. It's a similar feeling to when firmino scored a goal.
I've said fhis before and ill say it again Nunez is a portuguese/La liga/ Turkish super league player He doesnt belong in leagues like Premier League, Bundesliga, Eredevise etc
It was ridiculous. Two inch perfect shot from not easy angles running at speed. I do not think Newcastle was ever the same after that. For a few brief weeks, Newcastle seemed like an up and coming team. Up a goal against a 10 man Liverpool seemed to buttress that argument. Then losing to a 10 man Liverpool team made them look very midtable.
But we didn't win at the end if the season. Unfortunately that 's what 'll be remembered. Darwin is a good player. I didn't think he needs more time. He just needs to make more efforts and score. That's all WE are asking and waiting for
I love Darwin and respect his overall contribution on the pitch be it coming back and defending and pressing to get the goal back.. creating attacking moves assisting Mo and Co' etc., etc. it's difficult not to love him. I've also believe and still believe he has it in him to up his game and be that lethal striker but the sad part is Liverpool will not just keep playing him until he gets it right which is pretty much what Benfica did... so his chances of clicking are much less compared to Benfica.. it's not just the opponents because the man does get through on goal... but unless Slot just insists on playing him with a no matter what type of approach then it probably won't happen for him :(
Man I love him, his character, dedication, passion for playing, he's never given up no matter how bad his form gets sometimes. If he's fine with being a squad option for the types of games that suit him I'd love him to stay for many years. He can't be as bad as some are making him out to be with like 60G/As in 110 games. Can he actually become the first option though? I don't know, I don't think so. He still has three and a half years of contract left, you never know what could click in his brain though
I thought he'd be our old Torres, but he simply ain't consistent enough with the amount of chances we create for him and hasn't got the dribbling like that of a Torres
Merry Xmas Adrian! I completely concur with your take on Darwin. He's equal parts fun and frustrating, but ya gotta love him. I hope LFC can hang onto him and perhaps he'll break out. But you can't fault his passion and drive. I'll echo it... Long Live Darwizzy! YNWA!
He doesn't react well when a clear chance is in front of him, he's better when he has to react instinctively, but he does ruffle up defences and creates.
Guy always gives his 100% out there. I want him to be good so badly, but man.....this is his 3rd season with the club, and he still hasn't gotten it figured out yet. I just dont know if I ever see him doing so at this point. Especially with how good Jota can be when hes not hurt.
Collecter of great misses yeah thats our boy darwizy. I am rooting for him to be successful for us. I love his passion, the energy he brings. I really hope we will see the best of darwin soon.
We're going to have to see it soon, because we're getting to the point where we either extend or sell and likability is unlikely to feature in Will Spearman's data models. I just checked and it looks like he got a 6 year deal so in theory he has another season to try, but..
I personally am at the point where I really want us and Darwin to go our separate ways, he is extremely likable but he is not consistent enough and misses too many chances to be a top striker for Liverpool. It’s just a signing that doesn’t fit for both the club and the player imo
You are wrong in one thing: Darwin HAS changed. 2 years ago he would lash out in the Southampton game. 2 years ago he wouldnt backtrack. He is slowly becoming more Firminho rather than Cavani. He is hothead and (in footballing terms) immature for his age. But he is getting there, I believe in him! He puts the work to earn out trust, 100%!
What's interesting re: Darwin...fans in the stadium and in the city seem to love him. Fans online want him gone. It's indicative of a greater culture shift in football. Online fans are much more fickle and tend to give up on a player the moment he doesn't outperform expectations. Like, Darwin is an amazing backup striker to Jota. Different playstyle, his pace and strength are pretty much 2nd to none in the EPL, and if he had cost 10M instead of 80M I honestly think most criticism would stop (I may be naive). Divock Origi never really got serious criticism from LFC fans, even before he became a late-game GOAT. It isn't Darwin's fault that his price tag was high.
50 years of supporting LFC And sorry to be blunt but I've waited for Nunez to start smashing in the goals But it's not happening any time soon That's his job as a striker let's not forget that . Last season @ the end he cost us big time I think 🤔 the last five games he missed so many chances if he'd put them away it's possible we could have won the league. He's a million miles away from the greats Rushie, Aldridge, Keegan's, Fowler's, Torres, & my fav (Suarez, ) BEAST If Jotta could stay match fit but hes getting more inurjed 😬 Even Ronny Rosential from Israel had a better ratio of goals than Nunez 🤣 And Ron wasn't a bad player . It's time to let him go & get someone who's an absolute beast a prolific goal.machine Good job we have king Salah Otherwise we'd be F---- . Sorry Nunez but I can't wait anymore This is Liverpool One of the most highly decorated teams on the planet it's not Ipswich.
Darwizzy my goat. I personally think it's the aerodynamics of the hairstyle, so please get a fresh fade and I promise you results will follow. source: trust me bro
I love the guy, and I'm rooting for his success at LFC. However, to be honest, I've given up on him. I mean he's had opportunities to play with two world class strikers (Suarez & Cavani) and it seems like he's learned nothing. Imagine buying an expensive Ferrari and it only runs the same speed as a scooter. It's just sad, and you'd see that Slot sees that.
He's a great lad and he puts in so much effort, but we can't have him as a starting player. If we can afford to have him on the books whilst being an impact sub and a sometime starter then I'd be happy with that. I mean, he always has that potential to reach another level or 2. He's gone backwards under Slot, but the season is only half over.
That's the problem, we're not seeing progress for the minutes we invest in him and he doesn't make the impact you hope for from a sub a la Origi. We're close to the 70% of revenue UEFA FFP wage limit, he's on 140k pw, and we will soon have to make a decision on either extending or selling. Besides us all liking him and feeling like there's a chance that if we let him go, it'll all click somewhere else and we'll be sorry, are you seeing anything that says a sporting director can responsibly give him a 5 year contract?
Liverpool fan, he may be ass; on occasions. but i've never seen anyone not perform and still get cheered on every time he's on the pitch. Cult hero already big g. ps: porto>>
I will always back aompne who works hard and cares. You see that with Darwin, so as long as he is a res, i will back him. Yea, people qant to sell him, but hes om the ream and wont move in January.
As a Liverpool fan, I'm rooting so hard for him to be successful, not only for the club but for him as a professional. Since Torres and Suarez, Liverpool hasn't had a clinical striker (And thanks to the unstoppable force of Mane, Firmi and specially Salah, we didn't need one), but since he joined Liverpool I was hopeful he would become someone in the likes of those two. It's a shame is not working out.
He’s almost 26…not 19, he’s not developing, he simply is what he is, and what he clearly isn’t, is a superstar worthy of the money they paid for him.
@@Chris24_ you are so right. Not worth the money paid. And it's down to Klopp for that erratic decision making.
@@kareemhameed4042Maybe it wasn't Klopp that made that decision. It's a possibility that could be part of the reason he left
Do you think Liverpool will stick with him or just cash out, if he’s been at yours for 3 seasons surely you’ll eventually say enough is enough.
What’s your opinion on the matter do you think you’ll bring someone else in?
A partir del 2025 hasta 2030 brillará darwin en el liverpool y serán muchas noticias positivas del goleador del liverpool ⚽
He’s a player that needs confidence just like Havertz and Morata. Unfortunately those type of players can be very frustrating.
He would be at his best as a second striker besides a guy that guarantees goals and takes pressure of his shoulders
Like Mo Salah maybe?
@ no. There’s a difference between a two striker setup and playing with a winger that just happens to be an all time great.
Bad comparison. Havertz and Morota are false 9s they create space for wingers like Firmino use to for Mo and Mane. They do not have pressure to score many goals on the other hand Nunez does. He has been brought in specifically for that reason to score many goals. I do agree that he seems like a player who needs confidence and a run but the truth is he doesn't suit Liverpool. Remember Origi? Solanke? These solo traditional strikers do not work in this Liverpool system which is made for wingers to score goals.

@@thisisarmando8393 Origi has done better at Liverpool than he has ever done anywhere else.

Done very well with crucial goals towards the end of his Liverpool spell but that's about it. It was clear he too was struggling in this Liverpool set up.

Its down to the hair style. Hair loose - scores goals.
Ties hair up in that pony tail samurai thing he has , and the goals dry up.
Wonder if he copied it from Haaland?
😂 I’ve joked about that same thing, there does seem to be a connection to hair style
I'll always love this guy because he makes football so much fun to watch and he genuinely cares about liverpool. But he clearly isn't a Slot type player and he's not refined enough over the last 3 years
Exactly. Klopp turned Auba, Lewandowski, Reus, Mane, Salah, Jota etc. into goal scoring machines but even he couldn't get Darwin to become a composed and clinical finisher over 2 years.

Me as well, such a lovable player! When he's on form, he can be devastating.
Seasons greetings and a blessed 2025 from my family to yours. Love from Scotland.❤YNWA❤
He has a better g/a record than David Johnson, cost less relatively, & has a better injury record. Now go Google who Johnson was & what he achieved with Liverpool, cos I suspect you will have to lol. There is a LOT more to being an effective forward than just scoring goals; old time managers like Paisley & Clough were well aware of that. Nunez is part of the most successful Liverpool team in decades, how about just letting him keep doing whatever he's doing, eh?
@@JoeyMills-y3v Well, we haven't won much while he's been at the club. We are all pulling for him to succeed, but he needs to improve. Johnson was not signed not to score. His record is roughly 1 in 3, which is very respectable, especially given a lot of those were sub appearances. His record was better than that for the two? seasons he started regularly. And most noteworthy, the player who replaced him was.. Ian Rush. The only thing Darwin has over Jota is availability. Look, we all like him, but this is his third year, we're going to need to make a decision soon on whether to sell or extend. I suggest you look at our wage bill, it's precariously close to UEFA's 70% of revenue limit, do we really want him taking up wage space at this level of performance? He's not going to take a cut on the extension, so Edwards/Hughes + Slot are going to have to make a decision and I don't think their data models include 'likability'. I sincerely hope Darwin can kick on and prove his worth before it's too late.
@@paulie-g OK if you're just gonna lie about Johnson record vs Darwin we done here. Go shill elsewhere, fake chatgpt fan 😂
Im Colombian so its love for Lucho first but I can’t help myself to love Darwin as well, I want them both to succeed since they work so hard for it and represent our South American grit perfectly. They deserve to be where they are
Bendeja paisa merchants
Love watching Darwin too. He’s capable of amazing things, the potential for exciting results is so high.
I have a theory- that top goal-scorers are very even keel and not very emotional this is a natural personality trait you just have or you dont and this lack of heightened emotional helps in front if goal
I think the word for it is composure, he's too emotional and passionate to be composed
I think one thing i have noticed is that he is that type of player when he's really in his zone, he is such a menace that even without scoring he breaks the opposition apart with his runs and craziness and others score because the defenders are having a hard time with darwin. But then there are times he just goes quiet maybe due to low confidence. Perhaps slot needs to utilise him as a super sub for now where his job is 30-40 mins of complete chaos
Darwin doesn't have to be THE guy at Liverpool to be successful same as Firmino. He contributes goals and assists when needed like the two goals against Newcastle last season when were down to 10 men.
He is loved because he never gives up and is entertaining and I doubt that will change.
Firmino was the guy, though. He played every week. He was just more about bringing others into play than scoring, but he was a starter
Firmino did INFINITELY more than Nunez is doing right now, the lack of goals was the only thing those 2 had in common and even then Firmino had more.
As long as Darwin Nunez plays for Liverpool he has my backing and once he leaves he will still have my backing. I just love the man , gives his all for club and country everytime. Darwin Nunez YNWA❤
Exactly! I can't hate him, he's the only player where I cheer just as loud for him when he misses as when he scores. There's a special player in him, we just need to keep backing him, YNWA ❤
Pathetic brainless simps 🙄
He remind me players like Lovren or Skertl. Those who error prone but give all their hearts to Liverpool. Always love these players.
Like most Liverpool fans, I want him to succeed but after 2 years and a half, we have to be realistic, he won't be the lethal striker we wanted. He'll be a great supersub that presses like his life depends on it and outruns tired opposition. But not the kind of guy massively outscoring his xG and making Liverpool go from scary team to impossible to defend against.
As for who should be our striker, Joga and Diaz are good at this but they're not the kind to go in spaces and score at every counterattack.
There are optionsthough: Gyökeres, Isak, Sesko, Marmoush... We haven't had a lethal striker since Suarez, 10 years ago already.
I'm a Liverpool supporter and the cold harsh reality is that in his 3rd season, he's actually regressed.
He doesn't really cause as much "chaos" anymore or create massive chances for Salah.
Maybe it's the new system put in place by Slot that emphasizes control over Klopp's.
Take a look at his most recent start vs Southampton.
Scores a 1v1 after the defender and keeper both made mistakes.
Messed up two counters by not releasing the ball to Gakpo at the right time.
Completely ignored wide open Chiesa/Elliott on the right wing to take a low percentage shot from outside the box that was predictably, blocked by a defender's shinpads.
He will be an energy sub that causes defenders to panic and can influence games there (like winning the pen vs City), but I doubt he'll ever figure out the decision making and clinical finishing that unlocks his full potential.
We all love watching him, but I think he'll be sold next summer.
Personally, Liverpool have a left winger luxury problem and has had that for years. If you watched Nunez in Portugal and for the national team, he plays on the left wing, driting inside and then shooting. I think that is his best position. the problem however, is that we have players who are far better than him playing on the left, so he is stuck up front, where he doesn't get the same out of it. Darwin Nunez is best when he can run at the goal, rather than up front with his back to the goal. He doesn't suit Slot's style of play as well as he did Klopps, which is why I want him sold next summer. we could loan him out, but I'd rather sell him and buy Omar Marmoush
Darwizzy has great work rates. He will tear up lesser competition if let go from the Premier League.
As a liverpool fan I love him as he plays with his heart on his sleeve, i just wonder what it is that causes him to mess up so often. There are times you watch him where he can pull a rabit out of a hat and the next he'll miss a sitter.
I akways want him to score but unfortunatly you can only get away with that for so long.
Same here, I really love him but it seemed that he wouldn't make it big whilst playing for us. We need an archetypal number 9 who converts chances on a dime; too bad Nunez ain't the one.
He's a Werner
He's Emile Heskey.
He is highest in progressive carries average distance
He is 5th highest in tackles 15 with only 642 miniutes others on the list are midfielder or defender with 1000+ miniutes
Low shots per 90 but we need a striker that can run in and press be a threat (e.g :- Bobby firmino)
I would like to see in future can he be a winger or a midfielder or if he improve finishing he can be a huge advantage I will back him
Surprisingly, Darwin Nunez does Amazingly well for Uruguay. He pretty much made Suarez a bench player in Copa America.
Totally, he's an extremely mysterious dude.
He's confusing lad
@boisesoccer - Darwin is Uruguay's 🇺🇾 number 1 (or number 9 actually) striker. So he probably gets confidence because he knows he is relied upon and the Uruguay team is (most likely) built round maximising his abilities. National teams usually play more basic football since they don't play as regularly as club teams.
Liverpool are not built around Darwin and that's (partly) why you see a different player in both teams.
English weather is nerfing him
I'm gonna be honest here. If Liverpool keeps winning, I don't really care if Darwin scores or not (or if any particular LFC player scores or not). He contributes in other ways. I remember people criticizing Firmino as well, for not scoring enough but he ended up a club legend anyway. Fans cried when he left. Anyway, I only have an issue if he misses clear chances and we drop points as a result. So, as of now, I actually don't mind him since LFC is doing so well overall. He works hard, press well.... so I don't have much to complain about RIGHT NOW. Why would I when LFC is doing great. Just enjoying the moment. I care more about overall team performance stats than individual player stats
Probably the best comment so far
Darwin is currently the top scorer in the south american WC qualifiers. I don’t have the technical knowledge but I’m sure comparing the style of play of the national team to the liverpool style could shine some light on the situation
This would be useful if Darwin wasn't getting chances to score with Liverpool. He is, lots of them, he just misses them. Would he get a higher volume of chances if he was the main man and the whole team played for him? Yes, but he's not good enough to do that for at any club aiming to win league and CL. He needs to improve. Liverpool are giving him chances no other top club would, and Liverpool supporters are giving him their full backing as well whereas at other clubs he'd be whistled, waved handkerchiefs at and ostracized. We're all pulling for him, but he needs to improve and start delivering. Another way to look at it: if Liverpool had the sort of playstyle that is geared towards a single #9 shooting and scoring most, Darwin would be gone already. His erratic performances can be borderline tolerated because he's one of 5-6 forwards in a front 3 system.
Exactly
@@paulie-g Nunez is 2024’s Emile Heskey. The small strikers would not be as prolific if not for the big guy creating spaces and chances. Anyone who doesn’t understand this either needs to support another club or switch to cricket.
@@midknight We don't play that way. Also, we score more when Darwin isn't playing and his assist numbers aren't outstanding. I like him, I want him to succeed, his playstyle can be a valuable tactical variation for us, but he needs to improve his production and find a way to be effective. This is just reality, Jota and Diaz as a false 9 are a much more productive option in most games. No Liverpool forward can underperform his xG for an extended period and expect to stay at Liverpool when we want to win PL and CL - our standards are now too high for that.
How bad does Darwin have to be to have his role stolen by a WINGER no less 🙄
We should let him play as left back since he can run all day long lol
My issue with this whole Darwin Nunez debate about whether he'll come great and be the striker most expect him to be is this seemingly IMPOSSIBILITY to improve his composure/finishing. What is angering me now is apparently it's IMPOSSIBLE for Darwin Nunez to NOT be able to IMPROVE in scoring consistently, no matter how many training sessions he does, it feels and seems like its IMPOSSIBLE! And I ask HOW!!!! And WHY!!!!
Nobody seems like they can or have an answer, WHY???
people are different. That's all. Maybe he just doesn't have it in him to change that part
@maciejbala477 I hear ya, but if Darwin wants it enough to improve, (which maybe isn't the case sadly) then he would become clinical, no if's or but's. This is my entire argument! If he doesn't want to become a great goalscorer at Liverpool, he can leave the club, because that attitude isn't and shouldn't be good enough to be accepted at a club like Liverpool.
@@Andre-hm5vo One thing you can't fault him for is desire. I don't think this is the problem. Some players just can't find consistency, it's the hardest thing to do in football actually, the world's mid-table clubs are littered with players who are 'unplayable on their day'.
@@paulie-g Oh I agree nobody can question Darwin's "desire." That's just not even a criticism that can be labelled at him. What I don't get is how he seemingly can't improve his finishing/composure, if he's practicing rigorously on it. (if he's not, therein lies the problem) Anyone practices something so often, there likely become really good at it no? If that's the case then, why is football any different? It's not, so why isn't Darwin improving if he is practicing, that is what is not making sense to me. Why is this rocket science?
@@Andre-hm5vo If this *were* rocket science, it would be tractable, ie given sufficient intelligence and effort, rocket science can be studied and understood. This is different. Darwin clearly *can* finish, as evidenced by the spectacular goals he's able to score. So the ability, in theory, is there. The problem is being able to execute in game situations reliably.
This isn't a matter of understanding, it's a matter of being able to handle stress and adrenaline. It's like a fight-or-flight response - some people flee, some freeze, and some switch into beast mode, and it's not a given that any amount of training can change that in everyone.
Yes, practice helps *some* people because it wires their brains to treat the in-game situation as a less stressful situation by analogy to the practice session, but it's not true for everyone. Ever hear players and managers say it's hard/impossible to train for penalties? Same thing. The problem isn't scoring the pen, any top level pro footballer scores them in training reliably. But you can't reproduce the stress of, say, taking a pen in a world cup shootout. This is why they all have those routines to place the ball, walk in a certain way, go through certain steps - they've trained with them and it's a neural hack to try to trick their brains into associating the moment with the training situation with no pressure, rather than a real pen with your whole country depending on you. Can't do that with a chance in open play obviously.
My point is it's very unlikely that someone who displays so much desire and has the workrate Darwin has suddenly turns into a lazy slob who refuses to do finishing drills in training. For one, Slot wouldn't play him if he didn't see him do well in training..
Players are human, and not all of our psychology is in our control, otherwise we wouldn't have addicts, or people with depression, or other mental health issues. Not everything can be 'fixed'. Usually, by the time players get to Liverpool, this sort of thing will already have 'clicked' for them in their heads, otherwise they wouldn't be at Liverpool. But you can often see it with players at other clubs, especially the 'late bloomers' - something changes and they're suddenly more effective, whether that's goal scoring or end product for wingers/fullbacks. It looks like a step change, rather than continuous improvement. For some, the likes of Abgnlahor or Zamora, it never happens. Incidentally, there are a number of long forgotten players who are known among pro footballers as being absolute superstars in training, but who never managed to do it in games. When they talk among themselves on podcasts this often comes up. This is true in other fields of endeavour as well. I know a concert violinist who is absolutely brilliant, but her nerves made it impossible for her to perform, and she practiced at least 6 hours each day since she was 4 years old until she was 25, that's more than any football player has ever trained.
Liverpool loves Nunez.
No
Fuck No
On an unrelated note, Nunez Hardwork , commitment and Pute passion for the club is part of the reason Fans still root for him, but fans despise guys hate Marcus Rashford.
As a Benfica fan, I really liked Darwin in Benfica. I have to admit since he left to Liverpool I haven't paid much attention to him, however, when I hear hes name it always brings a smile to my face. I feal that he is such a great person and, when in form, a fantastic player. I would like to see him some day come back to Benfica, he never won much with the club and he definitely deserves it.
Honestly, we have to start accepting players for who they are, not who we want them to be. Our expectations are literally the difference between who they are (reality) and perfection (which doesn't exist btw).
Fans turn into that aunt/uncle mom/dad that just talk about how you could do better at school no matter how good you do lol
He’s simply not technically good enough. His close control, touch, composure, finishing, just not at the level of a top striker.
He’s great at everything else though 😂
he causes chaos and would've worked under Klopp,
Slot wants control and Darwin might not be our best bet
I love him with all my heart
Writing from Uruguay here🙋🏼 Uruguayans know nothing about discipline, and ballers are rather intuitive/instinctive than hard workers. Forlán was an exception but he does not come from an average family and had a different mentality. Suárez was exceptionally talented, being one of the best centre forwards in the history of football. Núñez is good but not as good as Suárez and doesn't have Forlán's mindset. I think he should work on his decision-making under pressure, which might not even have to be addressed entirely on the pitch but rather with the help of a neuroscientist. I hope he'll start scoring a ton of goals soon.
Good insight, thank you!
In the two games vs Liverpool for Benfica, he looked like a sniper. Those finishes including the disallowed efforts were not just clinical but surgical.
I'm my mind, after that game he was a different player to how he's turned out at Liverpool.
If I'm ever not watching a game and I hear Liverpool have scored, I get this feeling where I'm really hoping, as I look up the scorer that the name 'Nunez' is what I'll see. Unfortunately it's becoming less and less the case.
I'm still a little hopeful but it's beginning to look like he's not going to be what I want him to be.
I still really, really want him to succeed.
I think he is a Player that needs Space to properly Function and utilize his Chaotic Style of Play, under Klopp and now under Slot, he doesn't have the Tactical Nous to play on the Left and he doesn't have the Calmness to be Effective as a Number 9. I feel like he needs to totally reinvent himself, especially his understanding of the Game and that means learning to Calm Down and not rely on Overly Emotionally Tense Moments to be Effective.
He has the tools to be very Effective as a Striker/Forward, but honestly, its all in his hands, if he badly wants to improve, he would...
I personally feel like Darwin needs to play in a hectic system in order to flourish. Maybe the European style of play doesnt suit him. The more he has to think, the worse he is.
Ironically, he'd probably be great somewhere like Iraola's Bournemouth.
@paulie-g actually I think we should sell him to Atletico Madrid, then bring in Johnathan David in on a free
@@chriskohh And Atleti would buy him.. why?
@@paulie-g Griezman is gone after this season, Correa could be as well. Simeone likes South Americans
@@chriskohh atletico has both alvarez and Sorloth, they are not starving for a striker
Liverpool fan, hoping more than anything he can pull through. Love the guy
Same bro he almost score a gol yesterday 😢
I like him, I really do. I dislike his lack of end product but I love his personality, passion and drive. I WANT to keep supporting him. The times he shows brilliance makes me so happy. It's a similar feeling to when firmino scored a goal.
I've said fhis before and ill say it again
Nunez is a portuguese/La liga/ Turkish super league player
He doesnt belong in leagues like Premier League, Bundesliga, Eredevise etc
If memory serves me, Darwin had come in and saved us from defeat to Newcastle. Scored two goals when we really needed it.
It was ridiculous. Two inch perfect shot from not easy angles running at speed. I do not think Newcastle was ever the same after that.
For a few brief weeks, Newcastle seemed like an up and coming team. Up a goal against a 10 man Liverpool seemed to buttress that argument. Then losing to a 10 man Liverpool team made them look very midtable.
But we didn't win at the end if the season. Unfortunately that 's what 'll be remembered.
Darwin is a good player. I didn't think he needs more time. He just needs to make more efforts and score. That's all WE are asking and waiting for
I love Darwin and respect his overall contribution on the pitch be it coming back and defending and pressing to get the goal back.. creating attacking moves assisting Mo and Co' etc., etc. it's difficult not to love him. I've also believe and still believe he has it in him to up his game and be that lethal striker but the sad part is Liverpool will not just keep playing him until he gets it right which is pretty much what Benfica did... so his chances of clicking are much less compared to Benfica.. it's not just the opponents because the man does get through on goal... but unless Slot just insists on playing him with a no matter what type of approach then it probably won't happen for him :(
I hope Darwin will be remembered as a legend of the club
I'm rooting for him 🙌🏻 YNWA
Im not sure there's ever been a more jeckle n hyde player
Great video gang
Man I love him, his character, dedication, passion for playing, he's never given up no matter how bad his form gets sometimes. If he's fine with being a squad option for the types of games that suit him I'd love him to stay for many years. He can't be as bad as some are making him out to be with like 60G/As in 110 games. Can he actually become the first option though? I don't know, I don't think so. He still has three and a half years of contract left, you never know what could click in his brain though
we liverpool fans love him soo much
and middle of last season, he really was our main man
i hope slot finds a way to bring the best out of him again
I thought he'd be our old Torres, but he simply ain't consistent enough with the amount of chances we create for him and hasn't got the dribbling like that of a Torres
Merry Xmas Adrian! I completely concur with your take on Darwin. He's equal parts fun and frustrating, but ya gotta love him. I hope LFC can hang onto him and perhaps he'll break out. But you can't fault his passion and drive. I'll echo it... Long Live Darwizzy! YNWA!
When Liverpool signed him I came to you, to tell me what Nunez was really about. Now you're asking the question? I thought you knew! 😉😁👍
He doesn't react well when a clear chance is in front of him, he's better when he has to react instinctively, but he does ruffle up defences and creates.
Under slot there he is more a team player rather then sitting up front!! He involves liie key pass or assist wich is rare in the previous season
Nice one mate carry on with the good work injoy it, Merry Christmas 🎉
Probably be sold in the summer
Like the lad but he’s just not good enough for Liverpool
He wears that badge, and I will always support him. Keep going, captain chaos! Con todo mi corazón .
Guy always gives his 100% out there. I want him to be good so badly, but man.....this is his 3rd season with the club, and he still hasn't gotten it figured out yet. I just dont know if I ever see him doing so at this point. Especially with how good Jota can be when hes not hurt.
Collecter of great misses yeah thats our boy darwizy. I am rooting for him to be successful for us. I love his passion, the energy he brings. I really hope we will see the best of darwin soon.
We're going to have to see it soon, because we're getting to the point where we either extend or sell and likability is unlikely to feature in Will Spearman's data models. I just checked and it looks like he got a 6 year deal so in theory he has another season to try, but..
Evolution is a mystery.
Time to do a video update on sporting. João Pereira fired after 4 weeks of taking over. 100% club 100% finished.
We will always remember that game against Newcastle.
He is a puppy that wished to be a real boy. An enigma, a contradiction, yet never boring. Wish him the best.
Anyone who has followed Arne Slot in recent years knows that Arne always had a Darwin in his Team!!
Happy holidays! Enjoy your visit to your family and take care!
Darwin is a pressing striker, not a finisher
That’s a contradiction of terms.
I personally am at the point where I really want us and Darwin to go our separate ways, he is extremely likable but he is not consistent enough and misses too many chances to be a top striker for Liverpool. It’s just a signing that doesn’t fit for both the club and the player imo
You are wrong in one thing:
Darwin HAS changed. 2 years ago he would lash out in the Southampton game. 2 years ago he wouldnt backtrack. He is slowly becoming more Firminho rather than Cavani. He is hothead and (in footballing terms) immature for his age. But he is getting there, I believe in him! He puts the work to earn out trust, 100%!
Happy holidays, Darwin, Adrian & co! 👍👏😊😊🔥🔥🥳🥳♥️♥️
Liverpool Darwin: 😀
Uruguay Darwin: 😈💀
What's interesting re: Darwin...fans in the stadium and in the city seem to love him.
Fans online want him gone.
It's indicative of a greater culture shift in football. Online fans are much more fickle and tend to give up on a player the moment he doesn't outperform expectations.
Like, Darwin is an amazing backup striker to Jota. Different playstyle, his pace and strength are pretty much 2nd to none in the EPL, and if he had cost 10M instead of 80M I honestly think most criticism would stop (I may be naive). Divock Origi never really got serious criticism from LFC fans, even before he became a late-game GOAT.
It isn't Darwin's fault that his price tag was high.
Darwin Nunez is player who fan rejected turn into well loved player from club and fan
hope he makes it here at liverpool or elsewhere. still one of my favourite players
Great thumbnail for this video, lol.
have a splendid holiday season GOAT ❤️
50 years of supporting LFC
And sorry to be blunt but I've waited for Nunez to start smashing in the goals
But it's not happening any time soon
That's his job as a striker let's not forget that .
Last season @ the end he cost us big time I think 🤔 the last five games he missed so many chances if he'd put them away it's possible we could have won the league.
He's a million miles away from the greats
Rushie, Aldridge, Keegan's, Fowler's, Torres, & my fav (Suarez, ) BEAST
If Jotta could stay match fit but hes getting more inurjed 😬
Even Ronny Rosential from Israel had a better ratio of goals than Nunez 🤣
And Ron wasn't a bad player .
It's time to let him go & get someone who's an absolute beast a prolific goal.machine
Good job we have king Salah
Otherwise we'd be F---- .
Sorry Nunez but I can't wait anymore
This is Liverpool
One of the most highly decorated teams on the planet it's not Ipswich.
Long live Darwin and happy holiday adrian
Merry Christmas and happy holidays chief 🍻💜
It's hilarious to look back now to when people were making Haaland and Núñez comparisons 😂
He's an Edinson Cavani regen
DarwinLingard ?
AndyNunezCaroll ?
The style of play has changed from the klopp era meaning darwin gets less of the ball in the final third
So the conclusion is, he’s just a chill guy who loves football. Hmm.
A very fair assessment. He works hard and never shies away, but it is not equalling goals
It doesn't need to equal goals tho 😂
Darwin Nunez is a Diego Forlan regen. Watch him tear up La Liga once Liverpool lets go of him.
Wow, didn’t know you were a fellow Montrealer✌️
Darwizzy
Nunez Nunez Nunez ⛳
As much as he frustrates me at times I just love him... he's that guy fr... ❤
Plays with everything in his might. 😭❤️🔥🔥🔥
I see myself as the YMCA adult co-Ed league Darwin Nuñez for sure 😂
Happy Holidays for you and your family! 💙💙
Scoring the hard ones and missing the easy ones? That reminds me of how I felt about Patrick Kluivert.
Darwizzy my goat. I personally think it's the aerodynamics of the hairstyle, so please get a fresh fade and I promise you results will follow. source: trust me bro
Cut your hair Darwin! The numbers will go up ⬆️
For some reason I think that Darwin Nunez would be a fantastic player under Diego Simeone
He’s a good mascot. Maybe not worth 80mil but worth something large
The description is wrong btw, just letting you know
Thank you!
I love the guy, and I'm rooting for his success at LFC. However, to be honest, I've given up on him. I mean he's had opportunities to play with two world class strikers (Suarez & Cavani) and it seems like he's learned nothing. Imagine buying an expensive Ferrari and it only runs the same speed as a scooter. It's just sad, and you'd see that Slot sees that.
Didn´t Dominic Solanke go through a wee bit similar road? He´s quite fine now.
Nunez need to go to The EFL Championship 😂 !
Make him a CM or RB and he'll go crazy
Darwin is Torres with anger issue.
He's a great lad and he puts in so much effort, but we can't have him as a starting player. If we can afford to have him on the books whilst being an impact sub and a sometime starter then I'd be happy with that. I mean, he always has that potential to reach another level or 2. He's gone backwards under Slot, but the season is only half over.
That's the problem, we're not seeing progress for the minutes we invest in him and he doesn't make the impact you hope for from a sub a la Origi. We're close to the 70% of revenue UEFA FFP wage limit, he's on 140k pw, and we will soon have to make a decision on either extending or selling. Besides us all liking him and feeling like there's a chance that if we let him go, it'll all click somewhere else and we'll be sorry, are you seeing anything that says a sporting director can responsibly give him a 5 year contract?
I want him to be successful at Liverpool so bad!
Liverpool fan, he may be ass; on occasions. but i've never seen anyone not perform and still get cheered on every time he's on the pitch.
Cult hero already big g.
ps: porto>>
I will always back aompne who works hard and cares. You see that with Darwin, so as long as he is a res, i will back him. Yea, people qant to sell him, but hes om the ream and wont move in January.
