Liverpool FC Forum / Re: The Title Race 2023/24- Jurgen's Last Dance

« Last post by Brain Potter on Today at 07:32:17 am »

Would rather Arsenal win it than 115 FC doing an unprecedented 4 titles on the bounce.

Any Man City title win is totally meaningless, it doesn't register with me. I've stopped watching any of their matches on TV or listening to radio commentaries, and I love watching football.

It's football without any emotion...cold, boring shite.   

An Arsenal title win would really piss me off.

Must be the first time I actually know nothing about the next manager but that's not all bad I guess. It's pretty much how I start every day, don't have a clue really as it's all a surprise....life, as a few months ago I thought Klopp was here for a couple of more years and Boom!!!!! Life goes on n hopefully Arne can bring more smiles than not to us. Welcome to the club

When you hear Dutch people pronounce his name it sounds like

Ahh-na

Sh-loot

Yeah, Arne is like "Ahh", as in "Ahh, I know" and "Ne", as in "never" - the e at the end isn't silent, but more a very flat "a" sound.

Liverpool FC Forum / Re: Darwin Núñez (Darwin Gabriel Núñez Ribeiro)

« Last post by KirkVanHouten on Today at 07:13:10 am »

Hard to think of many examples where Liverpool forwards suddenly come good after a few years.

Owen, Fowler, Torres, Suarez, Salah, Mane all looked the part straight away. Firmino struggled first few months but that was a coaching issue - as soon as Klopp came in he proved his worth. Suarez in the sense that he wasn't prolific in front of goal until his 2nd full season when Rodgers came in. He was always a top player though, Nunez is just so raw as a footballer, not just a finisher.

Depends on what you mean by 'come good' I guess. Suarez certainly was excellent from the outset but he did have that 'not a finisher' label. I distinctly recall people clamouring for Huntelaar or thinking Carroll would be the finisher in a partnership lol. Nunez on the other hand often seems incapable of doing basic things like moving with the ball or placing the ball from 6 yards out. If coming good is reducing the variability in performances then I think we've definitely seen this albeit starting from a higher base. For example, Mane's first season to his third was such a step up it was unbelievable. As was Firmino's improvement. The concern with Nunez is that he's consistently putting in performances that are just objectively awful, which I don't think we've seen resolved before. And when it's going wrong for him he rarely resolves it in the game.

I want him to succeed, he has all the physical attributes to be a great player. He just seems to lack something mentally.
