According to the GUARDIAN and PRESS TV, Sardar Azmoun is on the radar of Liverpool

[Malavani]

Annoying English fans are already trash talking him on youtube and social medias. This is just a glimpse of the additionnal pressure he will have to support if he joins a team like Liverpool right now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMTu...?v=BMTuJBadPGU

english fans are the worst. Their country hasn't won dick since the dubious 1966 world cup and they still got the gall to shit talk others

Liverpool fans discussing potential new signings (incl. Azmoun):

Gotta love the Liverpool accent!

When do they start talking about Azmoun?

Well to be fair and if you're not being biased because of Azmoun being Iranian, a lot of them have a point about him! He's too of a raw talent for a club like Liverpool! Even if he signs there, probably he wont get much playing time for a long time.
I specially think this guy is quite right:

He's good at heading, has a decent finish and presses but he doesn't have much pace and lacks technical ability. He looks very raw

If we do actually go for him I hope it's a summer move because he looks like he needs to play week in, week out right now.

I'm sure if we all were non-Iranians and true Liverpool fans, we'd probably say the same about him!

Fine, do you agree with these comments as well?

we don't need any of these shitty players... liverpool should not release mane for african cup simple as that

If LFC needed a statue with poor touch that was a good header, they would have kept Benteke.

he is shite dont buy him LFC buy icardi from inter and he will be our next suarez

No, but if you hadn't seen anything from him before and only see that video (for which the comments are for), you'd agree with them too. In the video, beside that goal, Azmoun didn't really play as a top European based player should!

That's the point. These fans are quick to judge and say a player is "shit" after only seing a single compil of ONE of the numerous games he played, which says a lot about them. And no, I wouldn't necessarily agree with these comments if Azmoun wasn't Iranian.

Azmoun is not really at the level to compete with Mane, Sturridge or Origi. If he does sign to Liverpool which is unlikely he's going to be on the reserves or on loan for 100% of the time.

I read the points they made and they aren't wrong. Benteke is a better player than Azmoun currently. The only think that Azmoun is top level at is heading of the ball. He doesn't have top level touch on the ball and his shooting isn't top class either.

So calling him shit is one thing, but saying they don't need him is competently another.

[ali alipour]

I'll take Klopp's opinion over pfdc experts or British fans anyday. If this is all true and he deems azmoun as good enough to sign, then he would probably be good enough to get some playing time.

There is nothing about Klopp saying anything about Azmoun. Which opinion are you speaking off?

reminds me of movie Snatch, where that dude says "I thought this country spawned the fucking language, but so far nobody seems to speak it"

England is a football Mad country(much more so than Iran), the game is like a religion to many folks there, perhaps even more important to most..!
hence their people get really involved in the game and in every lil aspect of their favorite clubs..!
so Shitt talk, ignorant fan remarks becomes more prevalent and unrealistic fan expectations from their new signings seem somewhat inevitable..!
besides if generalizing, by nature and seems like culture, British are some of the most depressingly negative, pessimistic , deceptively prejudice / self-righteous, arrogant folks, you'd ever get to know...!! especially their football fans...!
personally I dont take much offense to their ignorantly negative comments in context of the understanding of the above & depending of their club's situation..! besides i do love me some "Clever Sarcasm" be it even personally offensive, and these lot are the world masters of delivering such remarks on their football forums by the barrels daily..!!

from a pure football perspective BPL is a damn tough league to play in due to high physicality, fast speed of the game and high caliber of playing of often overly deep squads and the evenly spread strong teams throughout the league ...!
I'd love to have an iranian in BPL, so i can start to follow it more intently and closely again, havent really paid much attention to it since Ashkan's departure..!! very, very few iranians are cut out to make it in BPL and of all, none has shown me the potential for actual decent success in that league than Sardar...! it certainly isnt the best suited EU league for new talents to per say develop their game, but i believe Azmoun has already passed much of that stage ...!! he still may well not cut it at a huge club like LP, but if not, he can always be loaned off elsewhere in the league hopefully in a less high profile EPL team that can afford him more playing minutes..!
besides LP along with RM n BMunich were my childhood favorite clubs and it would be soweeeet to have an iranian getting me assimilated in to LP fan-base and the club again after few decades past..!

But man, I was specifically referring to those comments saying he is shit, there is absolutely nothing wrong with thinking he isn't good enough for Liverpool or saying Benteke is a better player etc...

[Malavani]

Hem... If the following news is true that would definitely put an end to Azmoun's chances of joining Liverpool (sad but true)

Theres a couple sides to this that we must consider.

Pros:
- Great exposure
- Quality manager to learn a lot under
- Very high quality league and opposition
- Quality team to work around/with

Cons:
- Very difficult to make the first team
- Might not get much playing time at all
- Will be put under a lot of pressure in the time that he does get

I personally would see this as a positive move. I would be very surprised if he jumped into getting regular first team time and play. If anything i'd expect him to only play in a handful of games the entire season, apart from the occasions when he gets subbed on for 15 mins or so. BUT one positive is that, like someone mentioned before, he could follow a path like Victor Moses and use his liverpool resume to loan onto other EPL teams that will give him more playing time and an opportunity to show himself and grow. He could transfer to a team like Sunderland or Leicester for a season or so and when his loan expires and he comes back, he might drop right into the starting lineup.
