La Pantera Núñez sigue siendo reconocida por la afición 

For the match against Arsenal, coach Jürgen Klopp made some technical adjustments in his team to try to get a victory at home that was denied by a good approach of the rival, being the 1-1 draw a score that could have been different if the attacker Darwin Nunez had had more than just 20 minutes of play, but even with so little time on the clock, the Uruguayan element could be a topic of conversation on social networks where he has already been named otherwise.

After Nunez had a couple of negative nicknames after a couple of bad spells during his first season with the institution, this time that the goals have not accompanied the Charrúa, his new nickname has changed for the better, and his incursion on the left wing has caused him to be compared to the Brazilian player Neymar.    

 

It is true that calling an Uruguayan as Neymar is not very appropriate if you take into account the rivalry that these two countries and their players usually have, but it is curious to know that some Reds fans see their player with certain characteristics that made the Brazilian attacker one of the best wingers in recent years, including part of that analysis a harsh reality that is a low goal-scoring quota even being an element that likes to play on the wing.

 

It seems that the constant calls of Nunez to the starting lineup starting from the left winger will be the new test of Klopp to his player so that he can find his best version, having so far very good sensations of Darwin participating in that area, shining during the 90 minutes of the Carabao Cup against West Ham United where he could duplicate with Curtis Jones.

Having identified that at least at the moment his participation from the center forward position was not the best, Nunez has opted to focus his efforts on being an element of help in the team prior to the goal, finding a good partnership with Mohamed Salah that has been lost with the passing of the matchdays, emerging a new interest with Curtis Jones who came on as a substitute just when Darwin entered for Cody Gakpo
