Sadly even that credit in the bank is being spent. I'm beginning to think he's a bad buy. It happens, and its not like he's Anthony bad

Haha one of the top scorers in the PL + LC+EL and it's 'not working'. Sigh.
I want him to work out but the clock is ticking. He's a player who will become a world class attacker or needs to be sold to recoup costs.
For what we spent, he can't lapse into a bench option or an "alternative".
[article]Darwin Nunez scored his 23rd goal for Liverpool in all competitions, but the first to come from outside the box. Before today, each of his last 40 goals in club football had been from inside the penalty area.[/article]
It has to be Gakpo or Jota through the centre and Nunez wide - he’s just not a good enough at finishing or staying onside to lead the line and for all the assists, he’s not creative enough or has the technical ability to play as a deeper false 9 type.
I wouldn’t be against him playing on the right while MO’s away either.

Nunez on the right while Salah is away makes more sense.
His best display by a mile was in that space vs Newcastle away.
I just feel like if his happens we’ll all start to get pissed off with what he brings to a wide position, he doesn’t have it in him to beat a man in any way other than pace. If he starts pulling off those Bournemouth goals every week nobody will care but really does he have the qualities we like in a wide player?
This thread hexxed him. I'm disgusted with this fanbase
Performance wise he's been excellent. Smart with passes, smart with runs, strong pressing game.
The offside issue is something that will always happen when playing on the shoulder. Hopefully he gets a grip of himself but we'll see.
The finishing issue. God fucking damn. I don't know what it is. He alone probably has an xG of 4 each game, he just cannot finish. So it's clearly a hex.

It's not really an insult – donkeys can be endearing and hardworking, just like Darwin.
Look how cute he is!

Hopefully the curse is lifted and next game he gets a hat trick
I've said for a while now, instinctively he's world class.
But as soon as he takes a touch, he doubts himself and all bets are off.
World class my backside. Bergkamp was world class, Berbatov was world class. He's nowhere near that tier.
You can't be a world class non scoring striker.
He's extremely raw, something you'd expect from a 19-21 year old. Like I've said time and time again, we bought a project, we just didn't realise how big of a project it was.
Well he’s playing a big part, a lot of minutes and we’re top of the table.
If he’s part of only the second team to win a title in 34 years all will be forgiven!
Read my post again. I'm not saying he is world class. I'm just saying certain aspects are.
The main parts are lacking though.
