Liverpool Manager Jurgen Klopp Talks About The Positive Form Of Darwin Nunez After West Ham Win

Jurgen Klopp and his men were absolutely tremendous in their recent 3-1 win over West Ham United at Anfield as Liverpool secured another three points to get to the second spot on the table. Manchester United lead us at the moment, winning all their games unlike us, who drew one to Chelsea away from home. For the Reds, Mohamed Salah, Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota troubled the scores as Jarrod Bowen’s goal was the only positive takeaway for West Ham from Liverpool.

The manager spoke about the positive form of Darwin, who got his goal when the Reds were drawing level with David Moyes’ men and gave Liverpool some breathing space. Here is what Klopp said, via the ECHO, on the 24-year-old Uruguayan and his positive start to the campaign.

“Massive steps in last few weeks. He’s a threat. He was always available for us. Takes it on his chest and we play from there. Defensive work is probably the main difference. It looks much better. Curtis and Dom help a lot.”

Speaking of how the defensive work rate of players like Curtis Jones and Dominik Szoboszlai is helping Darwin get to his best, Klopp wants to emphasise how our win was a total team effort. With his strike against West Ham, which came from a beautifully lobbed ball from Alexis Mac Allister, the former Benfica man now takes his tally to three goals and two assists from five games across all competitions this season for Liverpool.

Liverpool’s attack, spearheaded by Salah, Nunez, and Jota, and that is not even mentioning the extremely talented duo of Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo, continues to trouble opposition defences, making the team a formidable force in the Premier League. The ability to rotate and have multiple goal-scoring threats is a testament to Klopp’s tactical prowess and the quality of Liverpool’s squad.

The Reds’ Clinical Frontline

As the season unfolds, Liverpool fans can expect more stellar performances from their attacking stars, with Darwin Nunez playing a pivotal role in the team’s quest for silverware. Klopp’s emphasis on defensive work and teamwork is paying dividends, and Liverpool’s ascent up the league table is a testament to their collective efforts.

In summary, Liverpool’s recent victory over West Ham showcased the team’s attacking prowess, with Darwin Nunez making a significant impact. The likes of Szobo, Curtis and Macca contributing in midfield makes the Reds a much more attacking side, and that is surely 24k gold for the fans and the neutrals.
