Really? I can't find that stat. According to TransferMarkt he hadn't missed one prior to joining us (going back to 2019 in Liga 2) :
Darwin Núñez - Penalty goals
This is the detailed penalty statistic of Darwin Núñez of FC Liverpool. The statistic shows in detail how many penalties the player took in his career.
Absolutely - and last night's fuck up was 100% Slot fault.
To be honest it should never have reached penalties, the game as it turned out was Slots fault 100%. He new towards the end of last weeks game away that we needed 4 midfielders to compete, and there was no reason whatsoever to go gung-ho against them - absolutely none when we were already 1-0 up from the first tie. Much of what Slot did - just did not make sense to me yesterday.
It's not rubbish, mate. You are one of a group of people that I can't remember ever accepting that he's been shit in a game, without always following up with a "but.... ", and then reminding us, for the millionth time, that he's a legend. We all know how flippin' good he is. We don't need to hear it over and over, every flippin' time somebody dares to point out a poor performance.
Nobody has said that it's all his fault that we're out this morning, but he was completely ineffective in both matches against their LB, and he missed two glorious opportunities to make it 2-0 to us, last night. If he's our star player, and he gets all the glory when we win (and he does), it's only fair that when he doesn't deliver, that it be pointed out.
You say some on here wait for him to have a bad game, to jump on him... Maybe so. I don't. I discuss what I see, regardless of player or reputation. And then I wait for the usual band of blind apologists to charge in and tell me why it's blasphemy to even think such thoughts.
Heres a couple of stats for you. Across both legs, Salah lost possession of the ball 47 times and he won 3 of 23 duels with Mendes. #BallonDor
I see what you’re saying, but this is one tie against one particular player who seemed to have Salah dealt with. I’d rather look at his stats overall this season and what he’s delivered with regards to what we want of him. Goals and assists. He’s also our main outlet whenever we go direct. Maybe less so when gakpo is fit, but still.
The reason why Salah hasn't won a ballon dor in part, and I'm not saying it's fair, is because he often doesn't look particularly skillful on the ball and never has. People eat that type of shit up.
I'm not expecting him to beat a mendes, and haven't for a long while. He's evolved into not having that ability due to lack of pace.
I do want him to play people in with an easy pass.

Theres a big difference between having elite speed and not having it. No one thinks he's slow.
A shoe in for ballonthefloor
Yeah this Salah season seems to be something like when that girlfriend whose been getting a bit old and boring, moaning all the time, has suddenly started putting her finger up your bum as you're about to jizz because she wants you to say yes about buying her that massive kitchen extension she wants when you could literally buy four 18 year old sluts for an hour a day till you died instead.
I want to do the maths but I need to know whether he's a smoker.
He's more complete player now then when he joined, so that kinda trumps the speed regression imho.
But how do you define elite speed? Who in our squad are in that category now?
Mo was ineffective across the two legs but I don't see him as the problem. The issue is we have no one else who can consistently score.
Jota has fallen off a cliff. Gakpo is hurting. And the other options aren't worth rehashing old ground over.
Mendes is a top fullback but it sure makes the job easy as a defender when you know the rest of the attackers aren't threats.

None who start.
I think you obviously are just jumping in soon as someone offers a different perspective. When he has bad games, it's been highlighted and pretty easy to see.
Going on about same player every time is a bit tiresome. If you don't like someone's opinion then ignore it or move on, it's a forum. Just like the fact I find it tiresome same topics are triggered doesn't mean I can't say what I like.
You use we as a collective, and honestly, I don't care what you want to hear. If you want an echo chamber, suggest twitter.
If I want to say he has played rubbish, I will comment, and if I want to say how amazing he has been again, I will say, but what's your obsession with one player? Seriously, grow a wider perspective of a team game. We do have as mentioned other players across both legs who were ineffective.
