I haven't been able to catch games.

But I have a question for those who have: How's the extra time? Are they taking a page from the WC handbook or is it same as always? (I mean, PL games generally don't have quite the same level of time wasting as WC games do in general, but even then, should be noticable if they follow the same 'rules'.)

Drone, you are a specialist on the scandinavian leagues
What can you tell me about Andreas Schjelderup. Although i cant pronounce his name it looks like Benfica is closing on him for 10+6M for 80%. Is he good?

Eh I'm not an expert on the Danish league, and he went to Denmark to play before he got any games in Norway. So I've never actually seen him play. However, media has been raving a lot about him, and his Danish club Nordsjelland seems like they're excellent at developing talent.

Impression I'm left with is he's not a haaland/odegaard level talent, but he has been improving a lot from 16 to 18. He seems like a very reasonable guy (going to nordskjelland while having offers from a lot of genuine top level clubs, going to benfica as a next step) is really sensible, and if he is as good as some papers claim, I can see him have a very bright future, and that you'll get to sell him for quite a bit more in three years.

I wish we could hold to a good player for 3 years ahaha. We Just bought Enzo on july for 10+8M for 75%, and people are already talking about 100M more in January. João felix player 6 months for Benfica first team. Cancelo and Bernardo played like 2 or 3 games in the first team. The only top player we could hold for 3 years was Rúben Dias.

I hope this Andreas guy come already in this transfer window and we can hold on to Enzo for 6 more months and maybe, just maybe, we can do some underdog Cinderella story on the CL.

We have a lot of young talent on this team. António Silva is 18, Enzo is 21, florentino is 22, Gonçalo Ramos is 21. Let's see what happens.

It's time for West Ham to dump Fabianski. He was pathetic in this game, beaten by weak shots at his near post twice, one ending up being offside.

From what I've been able to gather, he's still very unrefined and inconsistent. He misses quite a lot of sitters, which isn't good at all and makes great meme material. Meanwhile he also finds a lot of passable chances, creates all kinds of chaos and in general seems to contribute quite a bit on the attack even if it's not necessary goals or assists as often as you'd like.

So, overall probably not as consistent a goalscorer Liverpool had initially hoped and can be really frustrating at times, but looks way more unrefined than hopeless or outright underwhelming to me.

Do you think Newcastle would be where they are without the ridiculous cash influx they got?

Was haaland ever a meme btw.? I don't think so. He was a beast all the way since his time in Salzburg imo.

Haaland had 1 'bad' first game (where he showed excellent movement but missed a giant sitter) but was great from game 2. I think some memes were made between game 1 and 2. xD

I think Haaland is part of the issue for how Nunez is evaluated. Nunez had a super dumb red card but afaik he hasn't performed badly aside from that - strikers that dominate their first PL season are really rare. But Haaland has and Nunez was Liverpool's signing that was supposed to 'match' City's acquisition. That, he certainly hasn't done.

Nunez seems more like a belated replacement of Suarez. They're quite similar in terms of skillset and level of aggression.

If Klopp wants Nunez to directly replace Mane or replicate Haaland, then it's a mistake. I'm guessing Nunez was brought in to bring in some joga bonito spark to Liverpool like Coutinho and Firmino. But I doubt he can adapt so quickly to EPL. The only reason why he's being expected to make an instant impact is his transfer price tag.

Nuñez also looked wasteful and inconsistent in his first year at Benfica and then transformed into a monster in his second year. As he adapts and gains confidence his numbers will improve. It's also the case that his athleticism and aggressiveness create a lot of chances that the team wouldn't have had with a different striker on the pitch. He's such a physical presence for defenders that he can create space for others.

He's not Haaland but then again, I don't think you've seen a Haaland-like finisher since peak Cristiano Ronaldo?

Yes, I think Nunez has potential to develop into a monster forward like Suarez, Falcao, Drogba and Costa. Liverpool should give him time and space this season to grow. It's just unfortunate that fans and the media keep comparing him to Haaland (who is slightly ahead in experience due to the Dortmund baptism).
