Jurgen Klopp is about to unleash Robert Lewandowski plan at Liverpool after £85m change
[article]A step into the unknown for the Reds boss? Perhaps. But only in terms of his Anfield reign. After all, he knows how to get the best from an out-and-out striker. Just ask Robert Lewandowski, who spent four years working under Klopp at Borussia Dortmund.
"He released that striker's instinct in me,” the Poland international once said. “I didn’t know that I still had so much potential inside of me. He saw something in me that I couldn’t see.
"He taught me so much. When I arrived at Dortmund, I wanted to do everything quickly: strong pass, one touch only. Jurgen showed me to calm down – to take two touches if necessary. It was totally against my nature, but soon I was scoring more goals.
“When I had that down, he challenged me to speed it up again. One touch, bang, goal. He slowed me down to speed me up. It sounds simple, but it was genius, really.”
Lewandowski scored just nine goals in his first season at Dortmund. His next three saw 94, highlighting the reward of Klopp's advice. And while the Liverpool boss will hope not have to work so hard at extracting top form from Nunez, nobody should be concerned at the forthcoming shift in attacking emphasis at Anfield.[/article]

Love it. We’re so lucky to have Klopp.
@Hansern was the first person to announce beck in Sept the club was scouting Nunez. So alot of research has gone into his purchase.

Did anyone see that TalkRadio clip, they spoke on phone to Nunez's Benfica team mate Adel, he said some really good shot about Nunez but in summary he said he is a hybrid of Cavani and Suarez. Fuck me, so happy, anyone seen the Vampire Diaries spinoff named The Orignals ? Yeah man we have The Hybrid !!!
I think we are missing a couple of elements here. The big ones are wages and contract length. I think we forget that signing young players means lower wages than those they replace (except for Haaland and Mbappe - a big reason we did not go for them).
Darwin’s contract will be for 6 years, which means that the transfer fee will be amortized over that 6 years. Secondly, his wages are not that high, compared with other big players in the market (eg Haaland- who is much more expensive combining transfer and wages) or the cost of renewing Mané.
Even if we got zero for Mané, if we renewed Mané for 6 years at going rate for a world-class striker (~300K/per week) - not that we would give him a 6 year contract, but everything needs to be considered on an annualized basis. The wage difference alone pays the transfer fee. Any sales from Mané are a bonus.
One Hal is already more than enough.
Or Natasha Bedingfield.
His Ma is an average bang
Or Lynda Bellingham.. 'ahhhh bisto' *points to the sky like fat frank*
May explain why I’m bang average
Innit. Pity circumstances haven't allowed us to parlay that connection into a move for Lewandowski over the years. He'd have been an absolute smash at LFC.
Well you’ll find out what a banging from YerMa’s like tomorrow!!!!
It’ll be third or fourth one.
The wage difference isn’t likely to be that significant here - reports suggest €6m net per annum for Darwin, which equates to £185k per week - Mane probably isn’t on much more than that at present. The wage “saving” here is what Darwin will earn relative to what Mane was asking for (reported £400k). But that just preserves some of this year’s transfer budget, it doesn’t add to it.
The amortisation of the transfer fee isn’t relevant here - the key driver is available cash, not profit. I’m not aware that we have any issues with profit for FFP and the sale of Mane would probably address those anyway.
BTW he's going to have to continue being known as Darwin rather than Nunez, isn't he, esp.if his near-namesake also fetches up here.
Yeah as there is a Win in Darwin and shortened Darling in it as well
Spoken like someone who follows the SCM Xpert Eleven league.
It’s like something @Jürgen4PM would day before Prepare4aHumping FC are about to experience another massive humping.
