One thing about Haaland, he looked lost playing for Manchester City and even missed an open goal from just 3 yards which would have made it 3-2 and made the final couple of minutes exciting. Liverpool new signing Nunez on the other hand did very well including scoring and getting the penalty.

Quite accurate, the truth about the matter is Haaland is under much pressure to perform than Nunez, Nunez has Mo Salah to rescue the game if he isn't having a great game but who does Manchester city have, they mostly have creators than finsihers which puts pressure on Haaland to deliver and the media has its role to play as the camera would always be pointed at Haaland than Nunez.
Manchester City have a midfield full of players that can turn a game around and support their strikers but they do not have anyone up front that can assist Haaland when he misses chances. I fear this move to the Premier League might be a disaster for Haaland and a very expensive mistake for Manchester City because ultimately he will be judged on goals scored. If he scored 20+ goals in the Premier League he will be considered a success regardless of whether Manchester City win anything or not.

But I think Liverpool have started missing the impact of Sadio Mané but it seems Luis Diaz is not doing a bad job. But that creative and sharp runs from Mane is really missing.

Luis Diasz doesn't have Mane's physicality as such won't be a direct replacement of Sadio Mane. He could do other things but those sharp runs and tackles that Mane brings to Liverpool attack would be missed as we're already noticing. Mane never gets tired and hardly get injuries. Lets watch to see what Luis Diaz can offer.
Diaz has the potential to be a cult hero at Anfield, he can bring his own style to the game but he has played zero Premier League games to date therefore has to build his reputation from scratch. Mane was carrying out a fundamental role week in week out for Liverpool and he was instrumental in their success. As the season goes on Klopp along with Liverpool players and fans will miss Mane and his loss will only be fully felt if Liverpool fail to win any trophies this season.
