Darwin Nunez has made massive steps in his Liverpool career and his much-criticised defensive work is the reason for his growing chances in the Reds starting XI, says Jurgen Klopp.
The Uruguayan was critiqued in his first season on these shores by rival fans, with his manager saying that defensive dirty work was Nunez’s ‘ticket’ to the first team. The striker scored a goal to put Liverpool back ahead in a tricky match against West Ham on Sunday.
Mo Salah and Diogo Jota scored but it was Nunez who Klopp singled out for praise.
