Gakpo is a LW
Nunez is a striker
Play your players in their best position.
It is possible for younger players to develop and change positions during their career. Thierry Henry came to Arsenal as a left winger and became 1 of the best CF in the history of Premier league. There are many other examples.
I probably prefer Nunez as a CF but he also looks good as a LW. Gakpo has looked good as a false 9, maybe that will be his position for us or maybe it's a temporary thing and Klopp has other plans.
We are in a period of transition and we'll need to wait and see how Klopp develops the team. Obviously we need a few more players in the squad and there are other players who need to find a fixed position in a starting 11- Elliot, Carvalho, maybe Bajcetic.
Some players may always have less certainty about their starting position. 1 of Jota's advantages is that he can play CF and RW. It might be disadvantage for him as well because he never gets a settled run in 1 position.
