Who, Fernandinho? 😉
Ik you are joking 😀 if not you’ve lost the plot hahaha
the jokester JJ !
Amazeballs Diaz 😉
Both - joking AND lost the plot. 😀
Your wish is my command. Especially since the consensus is that he's been indeed "bueno."
You're right of course, but fuck me have they both shone... Give us a couple more signings like these
Made such a difference when he came on.
Not sure Salah, jota, mane, Keita thiago or even big joel went by anyone all match. Then diaz came on and literally took the piss.
What a difference bringing him on instead of mini or ox....

Sublime skill. And not just that one clip.
He made the difference...his tricks and skills it's like having Ronaldinho in our squad. The only player in the league that has similar level of flair is St Maximum at Newcastle but Diaz has the end product to boot
I'd have two footed the cunt. Dancing in front of me. This ain't strictly. Yep booted him all over.
Fixed
Luis Diaz has done pretty much everything right since joining the Reds and he had the fans grinning like idiots yet again in the derby for some outrageous moments of skill
This is Anfield

[article]Colombia hero Tino Asprilla, who spent time at Newcastle and Parma, has heaped praise on his compatriot.
The pundit also suggested Diaz could replace Vinicius Junior at Real Madrid. That’s despite the winger notching 18 goals this term and starring against Manchester City on Tuesday night.
When asked about Diaz’s displays of skill, Asprilla told ESPN: “The English are not used to seeing these things – it’s very difficult.
“That’s why when he did it they were surprised. It’s just that the English are made to play with a seriousness.
“That’s why the South Americans are so sought after. That’s for special players.
“Even in the warm-up he did with Thiago, people were going crazy when they started playing little games. You hardly ever see that kind of thing.
“The doubt was whether this boy was going to have a place; a place was opened up.
“If there is a place in Liverpool, there is a place in Real Madrid. Don’t tell me that Vinicius is going to put him on the bench, never in his life.”[/article]

I saw half of the game on my phone, but wasn't Diaz a bit shit tonight? Didn't seem to create much and lost the ball quite often. He must be a bit knackered trying to replicate the amount of defensive work Mane used to do when playing on the wing while also threatening in attack – he never had to do both to that extent in Porto and I think he will need a full pre-season with Klopp to build up that level of fitness and endurance.
No I thought he was solid... doesn't have to be Ronaldinho everytime he plays. Also he had about 3 men marking him at times.
Haha I think you need to re-watch the game on a larger screen mate.
His general play is great and his attitude marks him out as a player who will improve once he's had time to adapt to the league and our systems, but being objective he has lacked end product at times. He gets into great positions and makes the wrong decisions, that's OK he's just not on the same wavelength yet so he's improvising as opposed playing as part of a well drilled set up. I do think some of the praise has been a bit over the top at times
Probably. Good to know I got a wrong impression, it seems.
He wasn't shit but I agree with the general conclusion. He started brightly but after a got the impression that his energy seemed to have dropped a level or two and he just kinda faded out of the game for a period. Like you say a full pre-season with us will hopefully help with this.
Diaz's only saving his best for the 2 upcoming finals so i wouldn't worry one bit.
