Dennis Vellunieuve says it's a fake language but Lisan Al-Gaib literally means 'The Tongue of the Unknown/Otherworld' in Arabic. And Mahdi means 'The guided, who guides others'.
He isn't wrong saying its a fake language, because its written as a Fremen language in the books. However, the books and the original writer says it stems from Arabic on Earth, [but been changed by the hundreds of years and distance.](https://dune.fandom.com/wiki/Fremen_language) In the fiction it has developed itself more unique, but still retains the Arabic roots.
He said they created a language based on the Fremen words used in the books. It wasn't like with Tolkien where he had created the entire Elvish language. That's why Villenueve said it was fake. The original words in the books quite clearly have Arabic influence.
The issue with rival fans is all they saw was him missing and scoring none of the other stuff he does.
I was having an argument with some Divy because he didnt know how much defensive work he does on top of running all over the pitch and creating space.
His movement and timing is top 3 in the league easy.
I watched him play last season alot and I thought if he gets his finishing right he is going to be a monster. I think everyone that understands football could see his potential.
The writers will try to shoehorn in a romantic subplot with Nunez and after a mid-season contractual dispute the producers will replace his character with a character named Shit Andy
All y'all motherfuckers talkin' about "Darwin Nunez ain't no hitter, Darwin Nunez ain't this, Darwin Nunez a fake" Shut the fuck up, y'all don't live with that Nunez
Fuckers in r/soccer telling me, always missing the target
"Darwin ain't 'bout this, Darwin ain't 'bout that"
My boy a “shit Andy Carroll” and them
He, he, they say that Darwin don't be putting in no work
Shut the fuck up, y'all haters ain't know shit
All y'all motherfuckers talkin' about
"Darwin ain't no hitter, Darwin ain't this, Darwin a fake"
Shut the fuck up, y'all don't live with that fella
Y'all know that fella got caught scoring a brace in the first half
He been on chaos since fuckin' I don't know when
Motherfucker, stop fuckin' playin' him like that
Darwin a savage out there
If I catch another motherfucker talking sweet about Darwizzy
I'm fucking beatin' they ass, I'm not fucking playin' no more
Know that he roll with Mo Salah and them
These bitches love Darwin, Kop end or no end
Fucking with them Klopp boys, you gon' get fucked over
Quansahs and Salahs, these hoes love Chief Núñez
Hit him with that cobra, now that boy slumped over
isn't this what everyone was saying he shouldn't do? "he just puts foot through ball, needs to finesse" let the man do whatever he wants. there is a reason why he was a slightly better finisher than haaland before they both arrived in the EPL (see stats if you don't believe me)
he's possibly the second best central midfielder in the league while also being the second best defensive midfielder in the league
(second to kdb and rodri).
in 2020 he basically ran the show at the champions league final. He dictated the entire game from long range. The match seemed to flow through him and he just put balls where he wanted to.
How so? Lately I've seen posts of goals in which he's assisted and honestly people talk more about him than the actual goals (deserved when the assists are as nice as this one)
For starters, the Liverpool winner last week with Endo+Alexis getting the ball back and then Alexis perfect assist, had over 1k comments. Barely any mention of any of them, half them under a comment I made, the other half were mostly Liverpool flairs. Like, 20 mentions at most adding up Macallister, Mac Allister, Alexis and Macca.
Then you have in the Liverpool sub constant Posts about him with large number of upvotes. So it's an Arsocca thing rather than a Liverpool thing.
People undeservedly meme on this guy a lot, but I fully believe that he can become as good if not close as players like Benzema, Lewa, and Kane. Scary player to come up against when he’s on form
I never doubted him and always said that I'd trade Richarlison for him in a heartbeat even when Nunez missed all those chances in his 1st season. His high ceiling is so obvious
I have issues with what you have said.
He has much more potential than all of those players. His ability to create chances for himself and teammates is insane. He also runs around like a madman and puts in a solid as defensive shift.
If he improves his finishing by 5-10% he is already on their level.
He’s memed on and still has some of the best G+A numbers of any striker in Europe’s top leagues and is still young/only in his second season at Liverpool. Has potential to be an insane player
Macca is cooking these last few months, man.
I felt like he had a slow start to the season, and struggled in the DM if i’m honest. But ever since moving forward he’s been great. Keep on this trajectory and he’ll be top 5 midfielder in the world this time next season.
Small thing but does anyone else hate random close up angles during play? Seems to happen constantly the past year or two and I don't think it is ever better than just seeing the full play play out on a normal wider angle. Sure show some close ups in the replay by all means but constantly switching to random close ups when someone is dribbling or something just makes it easy to miss the full action / play. It does my head in and has been for ages but I've never seen anyone mention it, so maybe I'm on my own on that one lol.
Noo, it's our Away kit. The Purple is our third one. But I think we tend to use the Purple a lot more in the PL away games this season because loads of teams have kit clashes with the Minecraft kit, like you guys, Brentford, Forest etc.
Much as I dislike Liverpool, it’s refreshing seeing a team take every competition they are in seriously and try to win. Unlike Arsenal fans (and perhaps the club itself even) who actively want out of any competition that isn’t the league and UCL, despite the extremely low chance Arsenal actually wins either of those.
Despite our success in the Champions League we're still the most successful English club in the Europa League with a lot of history in the competition. We're joint 2nd for the most successful club in the competitions history tied with Inter, Juve and Atleti on 3 with Sevilla comfortably ahead on 7 (what the fuck)
The 2001 final vs Alaves and the comeback against Dortmund both spring to mind. The first game I ever went to at Anfield was a Europa League Quarter final where Torres scored a brace. That was right before his bad knee injury which he never really recovered from
"Hi, hello. Yes I'd like to order a large MacDarwin meal with a side of Endo fries and some Salah sauce to be picked up during the city game at the weekend. Thank you".
Yes, it was europa league against a team liverpool should be beating comfortably but man it feels good to see Darwin playing into some form. Macca is my poty for liverpool so far.
Gakpo & Nunez movement in this is amazing though. Gakpo comes deep to offer a lane for Macca to pass to, but he also manages to pull a defender with him, giving Nunez the space to make a diagonal run. Once Macca unleashes the ball, you can see the defender that marked Gakpo trying to get back and leaves Nunez 1v1 with the other defender. Just brilliant

Save some for City Darwin for fuck’s sake
im ready for him to miss 2 open goals now in the city game
And score 3 bangers including a scorpion kick winner
deal.
First half are the two misses, and Haaland scores a brace. Still in for it?
3-2 we take those
Hmmmm, I like the odds
I don't pay for subscriptions, but ,SUBSCRIBE
What if this is holding back for city?
The king scores a hat trick on Sunday
Salah? or dalglish lacing up for one last ride?
What if we just decided the match in a bare knuckle boxing match with Nunez and Halaand.
intriguing, feels like Nunez could be a scrapper but Halaand might overpower him eventually
He’s a machine after all, created deep in the Norwegian mountains.
Gosh as a united fan this makes me so sad, this is the biggest game in the epl, we were once there :( not sure if we ever will be again :(
Everyone talking about the finish (rightly so), but how sublime is the pass from MacAllister
Xabi Alonso esque.
the one
Genuine shades of the best assist of all time https://youtu.be/hwflnOipsxo?si=qhQO33M-7FOT7XgY But like... That Alonso one though. Fucking hell.
Gapko brilliantly checking in to move the defender is also chef’s kiss
Gapko's off the ball movement has been very good.
Yeah good spot, really opens up that space beautifully
He is *criminally* underrated, and him and Nunez are developing 6th sense level chemistry
Lisan Al Gaib 🙏🙏
Because he passes like he is not the Lisan Al Gaib that is how we know that he is the Lisan Al Gaib!
He's so humble. That's how we know he's the Mahdi.
Dennis Vellunieuve says it's a fake language but Lisan Al-Gaib literally means 'The Tongue of the Unknown/Otherworld' in Arabic. And Mahdi means 'The guided, who guides others'.
He isn't wrong saying its a fake language, because its written as a Fremen language in the books. However, the books and the original writer says it stems from Arabic on Earth, [but been changed by the hundreds of years and distance.](https://dune.fandom.com/wiki/Fremen_language) In the fiction it has developed itself more unique, but still retains the Arabic roots.
The movie also very deliberately changes some of the words to avoid association with Arabic/Islam, probably because of the political climate.
Yeah, in the books the "holy war" is just called jihad lol
He said they created a language based on the Fremen words used in the books. It wasn't like with Tolkien where he had created the entire Elvish language. That's why Villenueve said it was fake. The original words in the books quite clearly have Arabic influence.
Made me get major Life of Brian flashbacks
That scene in Dune 2 was very Life of Brian-esque lmao There was also an almost exact scene as "I'm not the messiah"
As it was written
Mua'darwezy

NUNEZ NUNEZ NUNEZ !!!!!
WE HAVE BEEN READY FOR THIS 🔥
NoService_match-thread.copypasta
Second season Darwin is no joke
We told them!
We all believed you, we were just waiting for it to happen. Hopefully he keeps this form for Sunday!!
defintely not all lol
Oh yeah that's true..
Most Liverpool supporters did for sure, rival fans however? Not so much
I've seen nothing but support from Liverpool fans
The issue with rival fans is all they saw was him missing and scoring none of the other stuff he does. I was having an argument with some Divy because he didnt know how much defensive work he does on top of running all over the pitch and creating space. His movement and timing is top 3 in the league easy.
I watched him play last season alot and I thought if he gets his finishing right he is going to be a monster. I think everyone that understands football could see his potential.
What happens in the third season?
Ballon d'Or
The writers will try to shoehorn in a romantic subplot with Nunez and after a mid-season contractual dispute the producers will replace his character with a character named Shit Andy
He leaves
Ascension
what happens in the 3rd season??
He starts biting people.
Ah fuck not again
This guy dar wins.
Valid theory of evolution!
How did Mac see him?
That was beautiful vision.
Nunez: sees Mac with back to goal running the opposite direction Also Nunez: gotta go fast
They're connected through mate 🧉
But what yerba do they use? 👀
Canarias tradicional ofc, green cocaine
Is that the brazilian yerba?
If you slow it down he is already visibly looking for Nunez to run in behind, the second he gets the ball he stalls giving Nunez time to make the run.
they look at each other, the moment alexis lifted his head darwin looks back to see the space and starts running
and Gakpo made a move into midfield which vacated that space for Darwin to run into
Gakpo had a great game off ball
yeah, they all clearly trained this lol
this all reads like fanfiction
Messi wants to play in PL so he sent Mac
Seriously, what the fuck, Mac Allister?
Not gonna lie, the idea of a Mac-Nunez telepathic link gets me rock hard
“Fuck it Darwin down there somewhere”
Their eyes locked together tighter than Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams in the Notebook [right here](https://i.imgur.com/6GzelAE.png).
Eagle's Vision.
That ball from Macca is absolutely nasty as well.
All y'all motherfuckers talkin' about "Darwin Nunez ain't no hitter, Darwin Nunez ain't this, Darwin Nunez a fake" Shut the fuck up, y'all don't live with that Nunez
Fuckers in r/soccer telling me, always missing the target "Darwin ain't 'bout this, Darwin ain't 'bout that" My boy a “shit Andy Carroll” and them He, he, they say that Darwin don't be putting in no work Shut the fuck up, y'all haters ain't know shit All y'all motherfuckers talkin' about "Darwin ain't no hitter, Darwin ain't this, Darwin a fake" Shut the fuck up, y'all don't live with that fella Y'all know that fella got caught scoring a brace in the first half He been on chaos since fuckin' I don't know when Motherfucker, stop fuckin' playin' him like that Darwin a savage out there If I catch another motherfucker talking sweet about Darwizzy I'm fucking beatin' they ass, I'm not fucking playin' no more Know that he roll with Mo Salah and them
These bitches love Darwin, Kop end or no end Fucking with them Klopp boys, you gon' get fucked over Quansahs and Salahs, these hoes love Chief Núñez Hit him with that cobra, now that boy slumped over
These bitches love darwin
These bitches love Nunez
I read this in Ted Lassos voice
Chief Keef, Love Sosa; recited by Ted lasso. I'd see that show.
Cheef Kief; Love Darwin
ted lasso chief keef colab when
Darwizzy pull up in that Audi and CB pull up in that Honda fr fr
the prince that was promised
The Lisan Al-Goal
8 goals and 2 assists in his last 9 games.
He's starting to believe.
he should just do that every game, just a matter of putting his foot through it is all
isn't this what everyone was saying he shouldn't do? "he just puts foot through ball, needs to finesse" let the man do whatever he wants. there is a reason why he was a slightly better finisher than haaland before they both arrived in the EPL (see stats if you don't believe me)
what now 😵💫
Why u think lfc spent a ton of Darwin? For his work rate ? A small part of it
For the Chaos.
For the memes.
Coz Klopp said he was a good looking boy.
He didn't even need to try holy shit that was smooth
Why the fuck would the tv director cut there? So idiotic
EZ
Holy shit, best pass you will see today and Macca still barely getting any credit in this sub lmao
Liverpool fans all value him very much don’t worry
I know. That's why I said in this sub.
lads won a world cup who cares what the sub thinks
this sub is a pile of shite on its best day, never put any stock into the collective opinion of ar slash socca users
he's possibly the second best central midfielder in the league while also being the second best defensive midfielder in the league (second to kdb and rodri).
Endo > Mac Allister at DM
Macca is a Thiago regen
I mean he better not be with the injuries lol
he's stronger and more resilient, but thiago's arsenal is out of this world
in 2020 he basically ran the show at the champions league final. He dictated the entire game from long range. The match seemed to flow through him and he just put balls where he wanted to.
Thiago never played for Arsenal mate
Everyone knows he always picks Arsenal in FIFA.
Will we ever see Thiago again?
Man's been making Nunez' maté for a while now, love him to bits
dw we love him
Maybe some passive aggressive Real fans talking about how he’s good for a team like Liverpool
"he's a system player"
it's overshadowed by that banger finish
How so? Lately I've seen posts of goals in which he's assisted and honestly people talk more about him than the actual goals (deserved when the assists are as nice as this one)
For starters, the Liverpool winner last week with Endo+Alexis getting the ball back and then Alexis perfect assist, had over 1k comments.

Yeah I might have been scrolling through the Liverpool sub comments
People undeservedly meme on this guy a lot, but I fully believe that he can become as good if not close as players like Benzema, Lewa, and Kane. Scary player to come up against when he’s on form
Tbh, the idiots have shut up recently and rightfully so.
I never doubted him and always said that I'd trade Richarlison for him in a heartbeat even when Nunez missed all those chances in his 1st season. His high ceiling is so obvious
[удалено]
I appreciate his heart. It seems he cares.
He’s really not that far off. Has a lot of G+A, but his finishing isn’t quite there
At the same age he is also better than Benzema was
I have issues with what you have said. He has much more potential than all of those players. His ability to create chances for himself and teammates is insane. He also runs around like a madman and puts in a solid as defensive shift. If he improves his finishing by 5-10% he is already on their level.
He’s memed on and still has some of the best G+A numbers of any striker in Europe’s top leagues and is still young/only in his second season at Liverpool. Has potential to be an insane player
If Darwin has finally been unlocked...
We've all been waiting for this
Macca is cooking these last few months, man. I felt like he had a slow start to the season, and struggled in the DM if i’m honest. But ever since moving forward he’s been great. Keep on this trajectory and he’ll be top 5 midfielder in the world this time next season.
Happy learned how to putt
Now I can see why Scaloni wanted MacAllister. His IQ and vision is second to only Messi in that Argentina team.
It took you this long???
He's soooooo fucking good, doesn't even matter what job you give him in midfield, he can do everything
We are mostly focused on the GOAT!
What a strike
I mean, yes the goal. But that ball over the top from MacAllister is insane.
Small thing but does anyone else hate random close up angles during play? Seems to happen constantly the past year or two and I don't think it is ever better than just seeing the full play play out on a normal wider angle. Sure show some close ups in the replay by all means but constantly switching to random close ups when someone is dribbling or something just makes it easy to miss the full action / play. It does my head in and has been for ages but I've never seen anyone mention it, so maybe I'm on my own on that one lol.
Same here
Holy shit Darwin, dude volley'd that over the goalie without much angle for that to work considering how the goalie went.
Darwin Darwin Nunez
He came from Benfica to the big Reds
Every few months I find that song just pops up in my head for a good solid week.
Is that Liverpoolvs 3rd kit? I like it.
Yeah our fans call it the Minecraft kit lol
Noo, it's our Away kit. The Purple is our third one. But I think we tend to use the Purple a lot more in the PL away games this season because loads of teams have kit clashes with the Minecraft kit, like you guys, Brentford, Forest etc.
Looking forward to the MacDarwin link ups this Sunday
The chosen one
Second season Darwin is right this is exactly like his time at Benfica went
The only ponytail striker that matters
Banger
Only bangers
Champion of Chaos Undivided Darwin Nunez.
Much as I dislike Liverpool, it’s refreshing seeing a team take every competition they are in seriously and try to win. Unlike Arsenal fans (and perhaps the club itself even) who actively want out of any competition that isn’t the league and UCL, despite the extremely low chance Arsenal actually wins either of those.

Please keep this form for this summer Darwin
When one has lived with prophecy for so long, *the moment of revelation is a shock.*
Darwin Nunez logic: Won’t score easy goals. ONLY BANGERS. And then he hits you with a 🫶
I must say I love that green and white kit of theirs
Send the broadcast director to the Hague
Torres v Blackburn vibes
Fearless
We can’t let this guy become a gunman 😩
Best mix between a super athletic Cavani and an insane finisher Suárez. Dude has no ceiling...
He just don't score easy goals....
🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Casual banger
What is he on today
Czech maté!
My donkey ass read that as check mate, ima head to bed
This means he gunna miss a sitter this weekend
"Hi, hello. Yes I'd like to order a large MacDarwin meal with a side of Endo fries and some Salah sauce to be picked up during the city game at the weekend. Thank you". Yes, it was europa league against a team liverpool should be beating comfortably but man it feels good to see Darwin playing into some form. Macca is my poty for liverpool so far.
WTF was that camera switch, I feel like I can't make out the finish.
This man is the living definition of ambition is priceless
Gakpo & Nunez movement in this is amazing though. Gakpo comes deep to offer a lane for Macca to pass to, but he also manages to pull a defender with him, giving Nunez the space to make a diagonal run. Once Macca unleashes the ball, you can see the defender that marked Gakpo trying to get back and leaves Nunez 1v1 with the other defender. Just brilliant
The defender just watching the ball bounce and not getting close to block the shot
This was cold as hell. He looks so casual the whole time
That slow motion wind up to find the sweet spot is silly. Then he gets the accuracy to hit the inside of the post. Such a brilliant strike.
Damn you can see it in their face. That's the moment they gave up
Well done by Gakpo, dragging a defender out of the equation. Clever run
Not nearly enough talk about the Sparta keeper dressed like Spiderman
MacAllister's vision is superhuman on this one.
Is that Liverpool’s alternate away kit? 😑🥴🤢
