Darwin Núñez is putting in the effort to demonstrate his value to Liverpool under manager Arne Slot. Although the striker has not been a prolific scorer in England, his relentless energy can disrupt opposing defenses and provide cover for the injured Diogo Jota. In a recent match against RB Leipzig, Mohamed Salah's header was on course to find the bottom corner when Núñez seized the moment. He sprinted in to ensure he got the final touch, scoring what would ultimately be the winning goal and helping maintain Liverpool's perfect start in the Champions League—a crucial goal for both him and the team. Liverpool has been nearly flawless under Slot's management, with the only blemish being a home defeat to Nottingham Forest. This strong performance has led the Dutch coach to frequently rely on the same players who have been effective, leaving others waiting for their chance on the bench.
