I like him however there’s an uncomfortable dialog available relating to Darwin Nunez. Take a look at Isak tonight, that’s the type of #LFC quantity 9 we thought we had been getting in Darwin Nunez. I don’t doubt his work ethic however his high quality in entrance of purpose isn’t ok.

Solely factor worse than this Nunez efficiency is that I’ll inexplicably see a large a part of the fanbase blame it on everybody however him

That mentioned, a number of nonetheless think about Nunez coming good…
Arne Slot has nullified Darwin. The No9 is not getting many probabilities, he isn’t a dependable purpose risk and he is stopped creating for others. He is doing a *job* for the crew out of possession however it’s like utilizing double-sided sticky tape to hold an image if you ideally want a nail.

Nunez isn’t getting sufficient probabilities proper now, sure he was poor however that doesn’t change the truth that he isn’t getting sufficient service. Take a look at the targets we scored yesterday, these varieties of targets are actually his bread and butter. We don’t create these varieties of probabilities for him.

The truth with Nuñez is that he’ll nonetheless have a component to play on this season.
Fairly than whining or rage-baiting each time he takes the pitch, simply cope with the truth that he is sporting the shirt and again him. You are able to do your post-mortems when he is gone.
