What do you guys think? Who would you realistically replace Darwin with if you think he isn’t good enough? Also I realized I said Darwin was born in 2001 he is born in 1999 but you get the gist that he is young and from the digital generation.
I’d replace him with Gyokores. He’d ball out.
I’d replace him with Oli Watkins!!! People don’t talk about him enough. He is class! He’d probably go for a grip but prem proven and shown he can do a job
Not a like for like replacement but I think Kudus is a baller that I’d spend big on
id take Artem Dovbyk statically the most similar to Haaland
Darwin is fast, very fast. His shots and headers go in or very very close.
He must stay
It will hurt seeing him scoring many goals in another team.
Hey, at Benfica he deleted his social media for a while , he closed his account due to fans attacking, so he's obviously quite sensitive to social media
I didn’t know that either. I did know the benfica fans also thought he was no good after season one because of similar things we think. Thank you for that info!
Congrats on the 1k!
And Nunez has everything to be Liverpool’s next great #9 but he has ALOT of improving to do. I’ll get behind him but he has to be more professional and keep his head down.
Thank you friend!
Here are some stats that will interest you Scott Danns 5 apps in the league, 1 in the FA Cup, 2 goals, minutes per goal 39 ( he has only come on for a few minutes in his appearances, apart from when he scored his 2 goals in, 30 minutes against Southampton). He has a shot conversion rate of 40% with those two goals. He hasn't scored in the PL yet, but that is hardly surprising, having only had 34 minutes spread across 5 PL games.
That’s actually kinda crazy. To have 6 apps and only 30 mins of play time is kinda weird considering how good we was when he did play.
Jayden Danns you mean?
@@tylerlong3080 Yeah, I got confused with his dad.
Almost 1K 🎉 Well done. A start of something big!
Than you my friend! Love from America to the Netherlands! 🙏🏾🙏🏾
May I throw another theory...
Salah's frustration also comes from Darwin failing to put his assists away.
The number of assists which Darwin hasn't been able to put away from Mo Salah, is pretty high. There are some sitters. He's basically making Salah look bad on top of failing to score for the team.
I suspect when a 'senior' player speaks out, it's gonna hurt.
I think there is something to this actually.
You made the 1K. Congratulations bro
(Can't keep calling you Unconformed.......Give us a clue)
My name is Roman! Ahahah I should probably start saying that more 😅 thank you my friend! Appreciate the support! YNWA!
@@UNCONFORMEDCF Nice one Roman! YNWA
This is great channel Watty. I'm glad Dunk told us about this gem of channel congratulations on 1k subs Roman. 😉👍
@@lfcspectre4335 thank you my friend always love! 🔥
Darwin is a good player, but either our current system doesn’t suit or his level of finishing isnt prolific enough for the chances we create.
He isn’t the only one who have missed too many chances - even the experienced Salah has scuffed a fair few, but as the starting CF he has to tap in a few more going forward.
He has been improving so he likely will. People are lashing out but he hasn’t declined in ability, he just hasn’t immediately been a world class finisher.
Spot on. I think we still have the best of him ahead of us. I think a change in system is for sure something he’d benefit from. So let’s hope Slot can get the most out of him.
He either hits the keeper or misses the goal. With the number of chances he's handed by his team mates...he should be scoring many more.
100% but the stats don’t lie. He is still a valuable player for us. With a bit of confidence and good run we could see the best of him
Great topic! Agree with you on the data 100%, yet also understand the frustration as well - those offsides were crippling on occasion. However, he just seems to be a player that needs that "last bit" of coaching - whatever that might be - to fix the finishing and some of the decision making on the pitch. I'll also mention that not being fluent with a language has got to be isolating as hell. Not being able to communicate must be a soul-crushing and frustrating experience, especially if you're not "good" at languages.
With you on this one, Roman - let's support the guy 100%! But maybe you could help? Perhaps an episode on how we (especially in the US, "non-stadium going" supporters) can support players in real, INNOVATIVE and meaningful ways? (social media is so perfunctory, so leave that out). Any creative ideas?
I’ll for sure think about this!! That’s a good topic!
I fully believe in Darwin Nunez as footballer and next season will see the real Nunez. Mainly because he turns 25 years old and that's kind of age for any sports athlete begins their peak time look at Mo Salah for example. When Salah turned 25 years old, he had his best season by date that was his first season for Liverpool and Salah went on having unbelievable career for us. So people need time and patience.
Great point! He is entering his prime. He should have a good 5 year run from next season till he is 30.
@@UNCONFORMEDCF Exactly Roman, that's way I still have belief in Darwin will become Liverpool legend for us. He has all tools to be top class centre forward.
At last someone with sense.
Ahaha right?
Any real Liverpool fan seems to have the same opinion on Nunez: He is hugely talented, but there is frustration about his lack of clinical finishing. It's only in the negative echo chamber that is social media that anyone thinks otherwise. I said from signing day that at worst Darwin is an expensive Origi replacement, a man to come and make an impact off the bench. But regardless the Reds will always back him and we'll hear NUNEZ NUNEZ NUNEZ ringing around Anfield. YNWA
For sure! I think he does have value at the club it may not be as a main man. But he has value. I just think he may want to be the main man and choose to go to say Barca if they can somehow find the money.
The game winner stat is insane idc what anyone says. Not many players can single handedly win you those many points.
That one surprised me as much as the lewy stat comparison
I’m picking Watkins over Darwin. He is a phenom. I doubt Edwards goes for him but he would be class at Liverpool!
Haaland misses chances all the time and stat pads weak teams but no one attacks him online it's shameful I think it's confidence with Darwin at the moment
Haaland 60 goals in 62 PL league games ....Nunez has 20 league goals in 63 games . Their is no comparison ......
@@michaelcorleonelfc2407 But Man City essentially play with only 9 outfield players to facilitate Haaland. He's excellent, no doubt, but you build your entire team around him. We're not trying to do that with Darwin.
Good points here all around. And the Haaland stat is true. He isn’t even doing as well as he did last season. I was going to add a section about him but I decided to cut it. But I think Haaland has jaded the entire prem into thinking those numbers from his first season are normal. They aren’t. And you can tell by the dip in production from him this season.
@@zimagic I don't care who builds a team about what ....both have a Incredible amount of big chances
And haaland has treble the amount of goals. Stop making excuses
I think something that stats doesn't tell is just that Nunez general technique is overall atrocious, you see his ball control in smaller spaces, dribbling ability, passing technique, his ability to time his run and stay onside, and his shooting technique is all over the place. Owen was blasted when he criticized his finishing against Forest but he was right, he makes things difficult for himself.
The thing is we compare the points won while ignoring the points lost in other games, or the fact that in these very same games he missed some big chances that a better striker could have converted, would another striker not have scored some of those and won other points too ? Would another striker scored the chance he missed in big moments and potentially help win more points overral ? Against Atalanta he gets a 1v1 early on at 0-0 at Anfield but butcher his finishing. If he score maybe Liverpool goes through. Things are more complicated than just stats.
Ahhhh points lost would be a good stat to calculate! How many winning goals missed. Good point good point!
Great optimism and positive take bro but ....nobody cares about a strikers assists numbers ....nobody cares about shearer , aguero, kanes assist numbers .... Darwin's goal numbers in the league in two seasons simply isn't good enough . Even Jackson and mateta has more PL goals this season
Appreciate that! And it’s true Nunez has to do better. But the stats tell us the tools are all there and he is doing all of the right things to fix it. Just needs that confidence boost you know what I mean?
@@UNCONFORMEDCF definitely big up for the positive take . Respect bro
@@michaelcorleonelfc2407 of course! If he deserved the criticism he gets I’d give it too him. But it isn’t like he isn’t putting up respectable #’s just not the ones we need rn.
@@UNCONFORMEDCF yeah bro I see what you're trying to do and I can only respect it
Be the change in the world you wanna see
Great video on stats mate, but the only stat that matters is goals scored 85 million for the goals, is not good enough weve been behind him all season. Hes only scired 5 goals in prem all season. He has our love and appreciation, but it is crunch time. I think your missing a lot as an American fan.
I’m curious, what else should I be paying attention to? I do get that he has to do better. But the stats are telling me all the potential is there for him to be world class. 31 goal contributions is still VERY good. To put it in perspective Luis Diaz has 17. But he is praised pretty much weekly.
I think your missing the point my friend. Im a huge backer of darwin, have since we played benfica in CL a while ago. No lfc fan that i know doubts darwins potential. If he took his chances, was clinical he would have more goals than haaland. You saying he has 31 goal contributions, seriously muddys the waters, not to be rude, stats mean f all in terms of results, last few games except Tottenham game, lpool had over 570 passes compared to other teams, around 270 to 350 but we stll lost. Darwin has only scored 5 prem league goals this season. Great he scored more in cup comps, but for 85 million he's not doing the business for us. I hope he can find a way, and dovwhat did at benfica in his last season there for lfc, i pray for that. Stats are good for analysis of the pitch, but not totally reliable, the only thing that matters is the goals. I hope n pray he shuts us all up, but at the moment he just not doing it. As for assists, i think they are a bit of a nonsense. And i think those that are bashing him on the internet probably rival supporters, haters. True lfc fans will always back the team and players.
He's scored 11 PL goals, not 5. Not discrediting what you're saying btw as he does need to score more, but his numbers have improved from last season. Here's hoping they improve much further next season.
If we're going to count Darwin "winning" us games, we better count him losing us games as well.
That’s fair too
His job is to score goals, that's the main stat unfortunately.
True true! The stats beyond that tell me he has the potential to score loads of them though, is what I’m saying.
@@UNCONFORMEDCF Totally agree, however, I think his price tag created a very high expectation
World class is used far to freely - regardless of Darwin and so many other players with this type of statement - there is no way he is world class - I’m 60 years of age and a Liverpool supporter for 50 years - so my thoughts on Darwin - needs to use his natural instincts - cheers
Very true, Who would you put in the world class category these days?
Darwin removes instagram posts.
Do you think hes breaking up with us? 😪😪
Ahaha he could be. 😭 it’s a bad romance
All I know is that With the chances that Nunes has had Michael Owen would have score 40 - 50 goals this year. This team create more chances than any other team in PL history. We need a striker who can convert these chances. Hitting the woodwork is a miss. The same as the number of shots he hit straight at the keeper. I won't call him for when the goalkeeper has made a good save. All the fans agree that every other aspect of his game is great. We love him him for his all round game. It's the important part of his game that we need, the goals. The reason he hasn't had the minutes of other teams strikers is because he has been subbed for missing shots, easy shots. We will lose Salah at some stage, in the very near future. Nunes is not capable of replacing Salah's goal contributions. Salah has missed a lot of games this season and he's still our top scorer and top assister. Without Salah's goals we slide down the table. It's imperative we get someone who can score one in two chances/one in three chances. We may have that in the youth team. Danns and Koumas are both lethal. Dann especially is a cool striker. Did you check out the backheel goal I told you about? If a PL player had scored that goal it would be one of the goals of the season.
I like Koumas (I really like this kid) and Danns a lot. And hopefully they get play time next season. Especially Danns. I think he has a lot of potential. And yes I did! Too nasty!!
But rarely scored tap in for Liverpool ..
But no guarantee as the team Owen played in created chances add Owen missed a few himself .
Yes he would of got more than Nunez but not the figures your spouting
@@graemebucknall2331 If Nunes had converted half of those chances. easy chances he hit over the bar, put past the post, hit at the keeper. we would be top of the table. Not just him. Gakpo has almost been as bad. Diaz has missed a few. We would be cruising to the title with some quality, clinical finishing.
Hitting the post nine times wins no prizes.
@@happilyeggs4627 what the defence leaking goals ..
salah , Jota , Gapko all missed chances .
What about if Jota could stay fit to play more games ..
It’s not just on Nunez when they can’t keep clean sheets .
If we were drawing 0-0 abd it ended that way then yes .
Nunez confidence has taking a battering ..
You can see the anguish as he knows he should have scored more .
But as fans we should give him that love he deserves as a Liverpool player ..
As I’m pretty sure how he feels about himself is way worse than what we think ..
But his stats as it’s pointed out are not bad not great .
I’d give him another 12 months under a new approach I think we’ll reap the benefits.
It took him 2 season at Benfica with a language he could speak ..
Prem is unforgiving
But to sit 3rd behind Watkins and haaland as forwards for G&A is a positive ..
When you do the break down on his stats and look at everything he does
15 pts on his own is more than any other player in red .
But to keep conceding 1st puts pressure on the front line ..
we use to have it mane wasn’t firing
Salah or Bobby picked up the slack .
Have you forgot Jota went 30 games without scoring over 2 seasons .
It took just 1 goal to open up the food gates and he had prem experience.
So let’s not be to harsh on the kid who is only 24 .
He’s not Owen no but Owen couldn’t do what Nunez does
@@graemebucknall2331 Agreed on the defence. It changes nothing about the goalscoring.
well, he seems vaccinated against scoring. What can u do if your strikers doesnt score?
😅
Imagine if he never hit the post and they went in… sounds like if my auntie had a set of balls she’d be my uncle. Can we stop with this mental gymnastics trying to justify that Nunez is good enough to lead the line for Liverpool. He’s had 2 years now and whilst he’s a good player he’s ultimately a liability who’s no where near good enough to lead the line for Liverpool. I don’t know why we are still trying to pretend otherwise.
Yep...he's hurting the stats for individual players...most notably, Mo. If he ain't putting away those sitters...then Mo et al don't record an 'assist'
Dayum!
@@UNCONFORMEDCF 🤣🤣🤣
