Forlan was milles better techically speaking. Nunez decision making is poor, Klopp can improve him but from Uruguayan standards he will never be on the same level as Forlan, Cavani or Suarez.I don't think you've seen Forlan play consistently

I think he stalks Nunez.
Yeah Forlan was a great player. Unless he specifically means the version that flopped at United then okay but I would say even that version was better than what we’re seeing from Nunez.Forlan was milles better techically speaking.

Brilliant. I don't know if he knows.I think he stalks Nunez.
At United as far as I can remember he did struggled to score goals, at least in his first season, but he still scored a couple of goals after and he was a clever player but at that time beside Van Nistelrooy they still had Ole, and next season came Saha and Cristiano.Yeah Forlan was a great player.

It is what is going on between his thought process and his execution and his lack of technical ability.I don't understand why he struggles so much to hit the target from good positions
Yep, you could tell Forlan was a very good player who just struggled to score initially and then lost confidence. He started to look very good before we sold him. One of the few times I thought SAF made a bad decision at the time and was subsequently proven right. Generally when I thought the great man got it wrong, I proved to be way off the mark!At United as far as I can remember he did struggled to score goals, at least in his first season, but he still scored a couple of goals after and he was a clever player but at that time beside Van Nistelrooy they still had Ole, and next season came Saha and Cristiano.
Sensation I had was that he wasn't a classical striker, more a mobile forward, but with a much cleaner technique than Nunez. His best time was later at Atletico Madrid.
The only similarity between Forlan and Nunez is they both make Scousers cry.

Exactly, yet you have idiots here willing to spunk 100m at any half decent striker (that’s flawed) because of how badly people want a “proper 9”The problem with the inflated striker market in a nutshell… there is literally no one available that is actually worth huge money right now, which paradoxically means everyone’s gonna end up panic paying that for the scraps.
He's an idiot character wise too, why would you feel sorry for him? He is excellent fit for Liverpool in that sense.Can't help but feel bad for him - not for them of course. Not like anyone of us would turn down a big career move even though we know we probably aren't at the required level for that stage. His confidence must be shattered.
I think he's better than this tbh, but never as good to warrant how much was paid or how much he was fawned over by some of our fans even.
The only redeemable quality about the video is that he's using a bag for life.
Think it's sad that you guys make fun of him... I was raised not to make fun of people with intellectual disabilities
Is there a compilation of all his chances available? That would brighten my day.
Here you go.Tweet

Must be very difficult living in Sweden, thenThink it's sad that you guys make fun of him... I was raised not to make fun of people with intellectual disabilities
Thanks. They're all bad, but that second one especially is awful. Any striker worth his salt will hit the target from there. And on the last one the keeper is almost begging for him to put it between his legs.Here you go.Tweet

There was more too, but if there was made a comp of Palmers finishes yesterday, it would make Nunez look like a true marksman.Here you go.Tweet

I sort of see your point, but if you look at his four chances in the video above, he has plenty of time in two of them, but in the other two he has to react instinctively. You could also argue, that on his assist he had a lot of time to mess it up, but ended up picking the right option and executing it well.You can see he plays better on instinct. Anything he has to do without thinking he can manage (the assist) but when it comes to finishing, if he has time to think about it he caves and just swings at it.
Lukaku for all his flaws atleast scored goals. This guy is a jokeBaffling me how bad he is at the moment, his miss collection way worse than Lukaku pisstake videos when he played for us.
We make fun of him and rightly so, but here we have a bunch of people who defend and think Fred, McT and AWB are good players when they also lack basic technical abiltiy.Anyways, anyone that defends Núñez by pointing to his numbers doesn’t know football, I’m sorry. “Oh but he gets into dangerous positions, he’s lively” yeah so did Luis Suarez for Liverpool yet he’d have 25 already this season and a hat trick today given how many inexcusable misses this donkey has had already. He lacks composure and basic technique, those aren’t things you suddenly gain with experience.
Think what stands out is not the fact that he's not prolific, it's that he seems to miss important chances in big matches when his team really needs him. Similar to Lukaku in that sense.We make fun of him and rightly so, but here we have a bunch of people who defend and think Fred, McT and AWB are good players when they also lack basic technical abiltiy.
Nunez has all the good movements of a striker, he just doesn't have those technical qualities needed to be really prolific, if he did he'd scored 40 goals a season. Instead he'll probably end up in the 15-20 bracket, which is alright but not what you want or expect for 100m.

I believe at this point, this guy is just enjoying the publicity and fooling around more to get more views
Yeah he's totally not serious. Heard him interviewed before and he's only having a bit of a fun, probably enjoying winding so many upI believe at this point, this guy is just enjoying the publicity and fooling around more to get more views
