Hello, Eds, I hope you are all well.
Is there anything true to the Mbuemo links?
{Ed002's Note - Bryan Mbuemo (RW/F) Seen as a potential upgrade to Miguel Almiron by Newcastle. I am not aware of any approach by Liverpool and having read the article in Equip they are not saying Liverpool are interested.}

We should be all over this. Top player, ticks so many boxes. Similar to Mane at Southampton.
31 May 2024 13:43:19
That's who I would go for if we to buy a forward. premiership experience, good age, can play right side or up top.
31 May 2024 14:30:21
I agree onekiss is he the same age mane was also?
31 May 2024 15:40:14
OMG. scrapping the bottom.
instead we can give opportunity to some youngsters.
YNWA.

2 years remianing on his contract, with an option for another likely means 50m+ but premiership ready and rarely gets injured.
31 May 2024 16:15:08
Yep he’s the same age as Mane was. he's a great presser like Mane was and look at their numbers
Mane 2014/ 15 - 2015/ 16 per 90
0.44 Non penalty goals/ assists
0.57 expected goals/ assists
1.53 key passes
2.76 shots
Mbeumo 2022/ 23 - 2023/ 24 p90s
0.44 Non penalty goals/ assists
0.58 expected goals/ assists
1.53 key passes
2.31 shots.

Mane was 24 when he joined Liverpool and scored 11 goals in 37 games the season before he signed. Mbeumo is 24 and scored 9 goals in 25 league games last season. If the club feel that Mbeumo is ready to make the next step the way Mane did he would be an excellent signing.

Said a few weeks back I’d like Bowen or Mbuemo. In my opinion they are the two best right wingers in the Prem outside of the big 6. Palmer and Saka aren’t realistic options. You can’t even estimate a price because the answer would just be “no”.
Mbuemo is younger so makes more sense on that front. But then Bowen is HG and doesn’t have the AFCON inconvenience. I’d be well happy with either.

I Wonder what a prime Sadio would be worth now. Explosive, Clinical, Aggressive ??.
01 Jun 2024 05:38:17
Probably the same price as Mbuemo, @LiverpoolFC8.
01 Jun 2024 06:56:57
I like both players as well but I would prefer Bowen.
01 Jun 2024 07:01:19
Mbeumo is probably the most typical Michael Edwards signing . Has he got injury issues though or has he just missed a chunk this season?
01 Jun 2024 07:11:32
Mohammed kudus of West Ham is another that you could see us go for not sure on his price as he only moved last year but seems to have had a decent 1st year at the hammers . Slot will know him from his Ajax days and is the right age similar stats to Mbeumo seems to be able to run and carry the ball for fun . Also very mane esque player . Maybe if Diaz where to leave and we received big money kudus could be the man to replace him .

Love the comment Ed002 "Seen as an upgrade to Miguel Almiron" that is not hard!
01 Jun 2024 08:37:07
I like Kudus but I don't see there's any chance we can get him this transfer window.
01 Jun 2024 10:38:38
We should be signing players like Chiesa, Kravadona and Rodrigo. Players who can walk into our team instead of backup players like mbeumo or bakayoko.
01 Jun 2024 11:30:34
King Carlos are you Jack Grealish in disguise?
01 Jun 2024 13:04:59
Mbeumo is a baller, didn’t realise he was so
Young. Missed a chunk of last season though but always impresses me when I watch Brentford. Speed and clinical.
01 Jun 2024 18:13:21
DarwinTheGoat, if we look outside of the Prem I wouldn’t mind Chiesa. He’s about to hit his prime and looks special.
02 Jun 2024 11:34:35
MKS, always loved Chiesa and it seems the big injury he had did not slow him down, after all. Really good player and plays like his dad Enrico did. Pace, power, tenacity and a gives his all in every signle game he plays.
As for Mbeumo, good playe BUT I think we can do better than him, frankly.

I'm a fan a useful stats . the important ones, games, goals (not including penalties, grandma goals), assists, interceptions, headers won, tackles won, completed passes, touches in possession (not a concise list) . BUT all this "expected" ballorks is TV junk. How about "miss controls", "poor First touches", "bad decisions" (not wife related! ) that would see several players excluded from duty! Its not a complicated game!
