I think there's only ever been three previous players that I really really wanted Liverpool to sign and then they did: Salah, Torres and Jason McAteer. Darwin is the fourth.

He will be exciting, I suspect. I think there is a slight difference between seeing a player play well against you and wanting to add him to your club, and a player looking like the most exciting player on the  pitch over two legs. I am not totally sure that we will replace Mane's end of season output at the start of the next, but obviously bloody hope we do!. In the same way that nature abhors a vacuum, teams like ours will have someone bursting in to scoring form, when there is this much competition between them. I wonder if the 5 subs means we end up with more last 20 mins goals than before?.

We all know what happens to most forwards who sign for this great club of ours and get the backing from our incredible fans...they go on to become the best version of themselves.  Looking forward to this kid being coached by Klopp and the extra confidence boost he'll get playing for our fans.  Given his age, and the contract length, he has a chance to rewrite some Liverpool records.

If I had to guess that  won’t get sung at Anfield or at any away.

Nunez feels like an exciting signing for a few reasons. Firstly he looks a really exciting prospect. Something that fits our system but that’s a bit different than what we’ve had before. Secondly, Nunez and Diaz signal the evolution of our forward line. Along with Jota they will hopefully be key components as we look to refresh and rebuild. That’s exciting but still a bit daunting given who they are potentially replacing. Thirdly, the manner in which we’ve done the signing is exciting. He’s an expensive player for someone who is quite inexperienced. However, the club have shown ambition and got the player they wanted despite the price tag. That’s a great tonic for how the season ended and the potential Mane departure.

Can’t wait to see Nunez and how it fits in. Given our quality and depth in attack we may introduce him slowly in the 1st part of the season. Take the pressure off him and let the players established in the system take most of the minutes in the 1st few months of the season
I think Jookie might just be the best fisherman on this thread.

Great thing about a lot of South American footballers is their desire & workrate. Most of them come from humble beginings & very few have big ego's. Our young man is going to fit right in with Jurgen & the rest of the lads.

Think this is an interesting tidbit from Klopp

“It’s important we all recognise we are getting a ‘work in progress’ with Darwin. He recognises that himself, for sure."

Won't stop the media or rival fans from going into a frenzy of course if he goes goalless for 5 games, or starts a couple of games on the bench.

Klopp on Nunez:

"Darwin is a wonderful player; already really good but so much potential to get even better. That’s why it’s so exciting, to be honest. He has all the pieces we look for. He can set a tempo, he brings energy, he can threaten space from central and wide areas. He is aggressive and dynamic with his movement. He plays without fear, he’s powerful. I know he will excite our supporters."

He’ll be protected from that by the boss.

One of the very few big clubs a player can go to, and be afforded the patience. Fabinho has that luxury too. Plenty wrote him off, but it had no affect on him or the team.

Yeah, if he even scores 10+ goals in his first season, that's a bonus for me. He didn't score many in his first season at Benfica. We may need to be patient.

Agreed. He can be slowed Bedded in for a year more then just come in and have produce right away. Which is a good thing
