DARWIN NUNEZ SPEAKS UP ON ISSUES HE HAS WITH JURGEN KLOPP

Darwin Nunez has already admitted what has to happen at Liverpool next season

A report from liverpoolecho has it that after a debut season that began with a bang and ended with a whimper, Liverpool are still no nearer to determining exactly how Darwin Nunez can make a maximum impact at Anfield..Information Guide Nigeria

It would be fair to say the Uruguay international striker was on the radar of only a few Reds supporters before the Champions League quarter-final against the striker’s Benfica in April 2022. Goals in each leg soon changed that, and saw him catch the eye of Jurgen Klopp as the Liverpool boss looked to add to an attack that would soon lose Sadio Mane to Bayern Munich.Information Guide Nigeria

Nevertheless, eyebrows were raised when Liverpool thrashed out a deal shortly after the Champions League final loss to Real Madrid that could eventually see them pay a club record £85million for his services.NYSC Portal

Scrutiny, then, was intense on Nunez from the moment he signed, not helped by an over-eagerness to impress that hampered a number of pre-season performances and led to him being mocked on social media before a competitive ball had been even kicked.NYSC Portal

However, the hype reverted in the Community Shield when Nunez came off the bench to win a penalty and score as Manchester City’s own big-money signing Erling Haaland was temporarily overshadowed. Despite then scoring in the Premier League opener at Fulham the following weekend, it would prove a false dawn, a red card for a needless headbutt on the 24-year-old’s home debut against Crystal Palace then ruling him out for three games.JAMB Result

With 15 goals and four assists in 42 outings – 11 of his strikes coming in his 26 starts – it has hardly been a terrible season for Nunez, who has been steady rather than spectacular. Improving his command of the English language will help, as will a tendency to perform better after his debut season as was shown at Benfica.

“Obviously, I still have many things to work on, for example my finishing,” said Nunez earlier this year. “But I think the same thing is happening to me as happened to (fellow Uruguayan Luis) Suarez. In his second year, he tore it up.

“Something similar happened to me already at Benfica. The first year went very badly for me and in the second, I exploded. Here, I think the same thing is happening. I hope next season will be like that. I’ll put my best forward and hopefully I’ll get a bit of luck.”

The forward is right. Next season needs to be when the real Darwin Nunez stands up for Liverpool.
