Darwin Núñez Player Thread (F)

Please don't break your foot, kicking the advertisements boards after you score the Winner v City, please.

How are people not in here praising the heroics of our great no.9!

What a performance, two worldie finishes, hope it does his confidence the world of good.

Next stop Anfield, to bury City!

He's F***ing boss. Love him to bits (almost said love the bits off him).

That shot conversion is slowly creeping up and that was the only part of his game letting him down, everything else is there.

Darwin is in the kind of form that will worry city. He looks full of confidence and like he's really enjoying his game. Long may it continue.

You can see why Klopp wanted him

I love DarWIN Fúñez, but Sunday is going to be the Joe Goalmez show... 

The lad is boss. Always was.

He simply has to be on the field....he may make easy things hard and hard things easy but when he's out there, you always know there's a chance of him doing something amazing. He's undroppable right now.

....and he owes chrome dome Guardiola a shlap on the back of the skull after the last game in Emptihad....

I could only watch the highlights but the 2 goals were world class.
I honestly think that when Darwin leaves Liverpool he will be in our top 5 goalscorers list, maybe even in the top 3

Selfishly I didn't want him to come off against Sparta. I wanted him to get the hat trick to instill even more confidence in him, ahead of this Sunday.

What a F***ing player he is, could genuinely win us some titles this season. Sensational and worth every penny. Gets better with every game!

Hope he smashes city tomorrow, tw*ts Haaland and gives Pep a nice rub on his head before running down the tunnel

Been brilliant

Darwin will absolutely be at the top of his game tomorrow, I can just imagine him relishing the thought of running onto the Anfield pitch and running rings round the citeh defence and the KOP will absolutely love him for it !!

Very good shift from DWN. We don't get the all important pen without that chase down....just needs to fine-tune his runs.

Didn't agree with his sub. A 50% Nunez offers far more than Gakpo.

Unlucky not to score too, only to be denied by a point blank save which Ortega didn't know much about.

He showed that he can do the hold up play of a number 9 today too.

Was always an outlet not only in behind but coming deep for a ball over the top too, linking up with Diaz with a flick on or a pass on a half turn.

Unlucky to not have finished the game but as some have said likely due to fitness but I'd have loved to see him have more time with Mo and Diaz.

He was a threat and could have scored. Diaz was more wasteful than him and could have been subbed in favor of Gakpo who dropped deep to get the ball.

Nunez has definitely won us over. He's with Salah, our most important striker now that Jota is out. Diaz and Gakpo need to step up.

"Darwin Núñez will not be part of Uruguay squad for the upcoming games due to physical issues......

Understand he has no serious injury but Darwin already suffered problems in the last week and will recover in Liverpool in the next 10 days"

- sounds a bit like what Fergie used to do with Man United players during internationals, but we'll see.....

Nice to see common sense prevail. 'All agreed that the proposition of Darwin being sent to play against the Basque Country was utterly daft and totally out of the question'.

Yeh it is common sense which isn't common by international managers.

Just take Southgate and what he did to Gomez

There are world class strikers, and there is darwin nunez.

Oh for a Jota, a Fowler, a Torres. A Rush.
