    rank appointment given where they were. and the club needs a good long look at its upper structures as a result.

    Dominic Solanke Bournemouth 12
    Son Heung-Min Tottenham Hotspur 12
    Jarrod Bowen West Ham United 11
    Hwang Hee-Chan Wolverhampton Wanderers 10
    Alexander Isak Newcastle United 9

    top assists
    Mohamed Salah Liverpool 8
    Ollie Watkins Aston Villa 8
    Pedro Neto Wolverhampton Wanderers 7
    Kieran Trippier Newcastle United 7
    Julián Álvarez Manchester City 6
    Anthony Elanga Nottingham Forest 6
    Phil Foden Manchester City 6
    Pascal Groß Brighton & Hove Albion 6

    Big chances missed:
    Darwin Núñez Liverpool 18
    Erling Haaland Manchester City 17
    Ollie Watkins Aston Villa 13
    Nicolas Jackson Chelsea 12
    Dominic Calvert-Lewin Everton 9
    Rasmus Højlund Manchester United 9
    Alexander Isak Newcastle United 9
    Jarrod Bowen West Ham United 8
    Mohamed Salah Liverpool 8



    Pretty clear whos the absolute star of the prem and who is not. 20 games played and 22 goal involvements with 8 misses.

    The funning thing is all the critique that nunez gets and he's missed as many as haaland wo gets none.

    It is frustrating but better to be in the right position to miss them than not getting chances at all.

    Definitely, he gets in time and time again which is not easy to do.

    Will he ever be one of the best finishers? I doubt it, but I can also see spells where he bags up as well.

    One of the good things about having Nunez for me is in his chaotic style he tires defenders by running them ragged so a more intelligent player can stroll on and get a tap in :)
    Based purely on yesterday lmao<laugh>

    I still shudder whenever fleeting memories of ours tactics against Barca crop up .Just everyone bar Owen camped in and around our box and just hoofing it for Owen to chase made in a way worse by the fact it worked .
    His negativity against Boro away when we had made a great start to the season may have cost us a title

    I love him - he terrorises defenders with his direct approach. If he can learn to be more efficient with his finishing he'll be unstoppable.

    maybe just close his eyes when shooting might be more effective.

    the irony is gakpo absolutely ****ed up his tap in and it spooned in.

    nunez had 5 hammered at dubravka and all stopped. he kneed one which was actually good effort from the ball he got and it still hit the keeper.

    I think he's a great player to have on the squad... But at the same time he is frustrating as hell at times.

    Yeah, he couldn't buy a goal yesterday, but his efforts weren't bad. But he keeps plugging away, doesn't hide, and keeps causing havoc.
    And yes, Gakpo did his best to screw up a tap in but it still went in, Nunez must have been wondering why the gods have it in for him.

    I'm more frustrated for him than at him.

    Also, we shouldn't forget that he has as many assists as Mo and Trent.
