Liverpool manager Arne Slot has made it clear that one player in particular was feeling quite down after the draw against Aston Villa last night.
The Reds dropped points again after a recent disappointing 2-2 draw away to Everton, this time finding themselves held by Aston Villa at Villa Park.
I’ve got NO respect for him, he’s even worse than Mario Balotelli!” – which ex-Liverpool teammate is Steven Gerrard talking about?
Things could’ve gone very differently for Liverpool, however, if Darwin Nunez had put away a great chance in the second half.
Speaking after the game, Slot made it clear that Nunez was not feeling great about himself in the dressing room, even if he didn’t specifically name the Uruguay international in this post-match interview below…
Nunez will no doubt feel he let his team down at a big moment last night, with the former Benfica man surely needing to do much better given the quality of the chance, which was put on a plate for him by Dominik Szoboszlai.
This now means Liverpool really need to win away to Manchester City this weekend or Arsenal will really be right back in this title race.
Darwin Nunez has shown he’s not good enough for Liverpool
If there was any doubt remaining, that’s surely all gone now – Nunez is simply not good enough for Liverpool and needs to go.
The 25-year-old looked an exciting signing when he first joined LFC, but it’s not worked out for him and a better striker would have helped the club to an important three points last night.
