Its free real estate. Did you just go 50 or for the round 100?

Pigeon_Killer · 21 Jul 2022 at 19:53

Surely over 100, 114 to be precise.

BaZ87 · 21 Jul 2022 at 19:58

He might get rested a couple of times, 108 I'd say.

Being an Arsenal fan, signings are a bit like going to a restaurant with friends.

You choose your dish and when you get it, it looks good, but then you look around and everybody else’s look tastier

Quality keeping from marshmallow hands there

Pigeon_Killer · 21 Jul 2022 at 20:03

I'm changing my mind, what's 4 x 38 goals?

BaZ87 · 21 Jul 2022 at 20:03

Make that 112.

Bet you feel like a right idiot now. 152 or if Baz is right, 144.

Decent second half. Thought Carvalho would get some cup games this season but he looks ready now.

Joking aside, Dixie Dean will be a forgotten man after Nunez takes his record this season.

52 goals, keeping it realistic.

Seriously, can get 16/1 on top scorer for Nunez, not bad odds.

Worth a little punt. Any striker will get loads of chances in this Liverpool side. Only issue will be Salah nicking all the goals. He won't be on penalties and that makes quite a lot of difference when it comes down to those last few goals.

Nunez easily gonna smash MARTIAL on the golden boot now. Soooooo easy!

Random Guy Esq. · 21 Jul 2022 at 20:26

Not bad for a lad already relegated to the bench.

IvanDobskey · 21 Jul 2022 at 20:27

We've needed a proper number 9 for years. Nunez looks the part. Early days yet though.

I’m keeping faith with my own man and having a punt on Jesus at 20/1. He’s gonna be upfront from the start pretty much every game.

It's not just penalties, it's game time too. Salah will start pretty much every PL and CL game he's available for and I'm not convinced Nunez will, certainly not in the opening months.

He is going to be the next Andy Carroll for you guys.

This comparison to Andy Carroll is lazy football twitter nonsense.

Good to see him get some goals to shut some people up.

C Kent · 21 Jul 2022 at 21:49

Good win, good run out, only downside is I won't see any more of those 'fail' comps for Darwin after he has played less than 50 minutes of football for us

Tall, stupid pony tail. Dead ringer.
