Ekitike to Liverpool was the most obvious signing ever for us this summer, I’m surprised more people didn’t see it, Slot wanted a facilitator profile yet the fan base were relentlessly mentioning players like Gyokeres and Osimhen lol
[🟢] NEW: Arne Slot spelled out exactly where he saw Ekitike fitting in at Anfield: as a dynamic No 9 capable of bursting in behind, but also dropping deeper and linking play when needed. [@TheAthleticFC] nytimes.com/athletic/65065…
Arsenal were the only English team to lose both legs, home and away to PSG
Martin Zubimendi 🗣️ “Arsenal were the only team who truly stood up to Paris Saint-Germain in the UCL and they let it slip because of minor details.”
“Liverpool are spending so much money” Won the league = £180M Finished top of the UCL table = £80M New Adidas deal = £60M Player sales this summer = £60M Net transfer spend last season = PROFIT of £4M Success on the pitch and being well ran off it allows for this spending
Trent would have been sat in the corner on his phone texting Jude, now we got Frimpong who is life of the party and currently entertaining the group with UNO, what a fella
A dramatic end to a competitive game of UNO 👀😅
That’s now Kerkez and Ekitike who were both childhood Manchester United fans rejecting them for Liverpool this summer
[🟢] NEW: Manchester United made a push for Hugo Ekitike last week, but he already committed to Liverpool. [@David_Ornstein on Sky]
Ekitike 24/25 vs Nunez best season 23/24 Ekitike better in all important metrics
Ekitike looks an incredibly reasonable price when you consider the state of the market right now (NPG = non penalty goals, league only last szn) Ekitike £79m - 14 NPG Mbeumo £71m - 15 NPG Joao Pedro £60m - 5 NPG Elanga £55m - 6 NPG Kudus £55m - 5 NPG Madueke £52m - 7 NPG
Ekitike 24/25 vs Isak 24/25 Ekitikes conversion rate will improve when he’s coached to take fewer unnecessary shots, especially low xG attempts (harder places to score from, like shots outside the box)
Darwin Núñez with a first-half hattrick against Stoke City behind closed doors. I’m telling you lot, we shouldn’t be selling him. This will be his season.

Personally think this could be Hughes and Edwards plan Ekitike in Nunez out Isak in Diaz out Liverpools attacking rebuild complete
