I don't know if we specifically need him, but we definitely need a long term right back with world class potential. Nunes has done well, but can anyone honestly say that he's got it in him to become one of the best right backs in the world? Because that's what we're trying to replace.
Apart from the acl I don’t think it’s that bad.
Offers nothing in attack ???
I would sooner have a full back who first and foremost can defend.
You can't quote a niche stat from a single game and then call me Mr stats because I showed his goals and assists haha
Assist stats depends how a team uses a fullback and he's more likely to invert and assist Newcastles wide players than overlap and assist the goalscores,so there's that.
Often dictated by the players skillset though right. Trippier got forward loads to cross, Hall does it now on the other side. Why does Howe let them get forward but not Livramento? Probably because he's not as good at it
No idea, and don't really care. Pep will know his skills, and if he wants him to play inverted and thinks Livramento is a good fit that's fine, not my concern.
Nunes does have it in him because he currently is one of the best in the world at RB.
Not to mention the lad we are trying to replace wasn't close to being the best in the world in his last 12/18 months.
Steady on old chap. In all seriousness he has been very good this season.
Twitter full of the same comments. A lot saying his attacking output is shite, likening him to Walker and saying perhaps that what City want, a quick RB with more defensive instincts. A few saying he was better at LB also.
Let me go see what all.the fuss is about
