"He's never going to be a clinical finisher" – Carragher makes bold claim on Liverpool attacker




Jamie Carragher has claimed that Darwin Nunez is not a natural goal-scorer considering his unorthodox shooting technique


Nunez, 23, started the last contest on the substitute bench before replacing Salah in the 81st minute.


Nunez controlled a pass from Trent Alexander-Arnold on his chest before slotting it with a left-footed strike in the 90th minute.


Carragher claimed that Nunez's shooting ability doesn't instill confidence.



Jamie Carragher:


"I think sometimes when he goes through and he has that time to think about it, I don't think anyone really feels confident he's going to finish. Away at Newcastle, he brought it down and he just hit it. And even then, I was thinking, 'I can't believe he's hit that so quickly'."


Carragher added:


"But that's the type of thing he does, he'll shoot from anywhere – gets lots of shots off. But I think that's just him. You know, he's never going to be a clinical finisher, I don't think. I might be wrong."


Nunez has scored 15 goals and contributed four assists in 37 appearances, averaging a goal contribution every 114 minutes.


Klopp expressed his opinion on his team's performance during their 6-1 Premier League victory at Elland Road. He elaborated:


Jürgen Klopp:


"I enjoyed it a lot! I think it's the best game we've played this season, from all perspectives. It was a really good game, sensational goals. Counter-pressing-wise, the best game. I was close to saying in decades, but it was long ago! My favorite situation is 92nd minute... we lose the ball and four players chase the poor boy from Leeds."
