      Needs to work on his finishing and final decision. Other than that, he's pretty good with his run and pace. He left Laporte behind like a championship player with his pace.

      Here we go again. People writing off a young lad, I thought his decision making was fine. Was he any worse than haaland in yesterdays game? He got a good assist for Salah and missed a few difficult chances.. as did haaland before he was taken off.

    10. Don't Salah Salah on

      He's not a CF he has a bad first touch, lacks composure on the ball and in front of goal, can't link the play, maybe the best thing for now is to stick him on the left as his pace is an asset, stick Salah in the middle, move Diaz to the right side and stick Bobby in the 10 role maybe that could work, but Darwin Nunez is definitely not cut out to be a CF for Liverpool.

      I still don't understand when and why people started to believe that players can't get better. If this is the 'worst' he ever is for Liverpool, then watch out.

      Nunez has scored 9 goals in the last 15 games . all in the last 12 games, so he will be fine, last Prem Game before world cup he scored 2 goals vs Southampton and scored against Napoli and Ajax in champ league. why all the fuss . it's odd really.

      Let's criticise foreigners more than English players again….. Still waiting for Grealish to justify his price tag but we won't hear about that will we.

      This guy is 22 – he is probably overpriced BUT – give him some time to get rythm. He has been played out of position – liverpool are completely up the swanny as a team. Scoring goals isnt just the finishing – Lpool are completely out of sorts and that will affect Nunez confidence. Liverpool overall play apart from the goals 3/10 – they were rubbish.

      He lacks consistent composure. It is almost as if his mind and body easily gets out of sync. He's got the physical attributes and movements of Fernando Torres but unfortunately he lacks the intelligence

      I feel like if by this time next year he is playing like this then he was a bust but my god. Is everything mememe nownownow like this game tight and a fun watch. Nunez is a fine player; I think there is work to be done by him but let him play. It was a fine way to get back into things after an awesome world cup final, A lot of great football here, haaland had a great goal, young guys from pool showing their stuff, Salah great goal after a great run by Nunez. Watch the game and have a bit of fun. Every time these two teams play it's a feast for the eyes. Nunez has found the net he will grow in these big games if he doesn't then he doesn't. Negativity will ruin the game and especially where American sports are already less about the game and more about the negative and the political. Don't let the world's game get like that please as an American its tough enough dealing with LeBron missing a shot by one inch and hearing he's washed.

      Look at the exaggeration…it's about 20 games into his first season, he has no Diaz, Firminho or Jota around him. Also he set up Salahs goal and the biggest exaggeration, was £100 million striker…what a hater shaka shitlop is

      Great comments from the international coaches and football experts. How beautiful that they all share their illuminating wisdom. I bet most of these individuals posting comments are from overweight couch potatoes who hardly ever kicked a ball in their boring lives.

      I watched the game and honestly Nunez is becoming cringe and hard to watch, you can see his team mates expect very little from him, Haaland comes back and smashes it

    42. imanishay on

      Nunez 18 games 8 goals
      Haaland 18 games 24 goals
      Best comparison the deluded scousers have ever made 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
