Liverpool’s win against Toulouse on Thursday means the Reds sit in pole position in the group stage, allowing Jurgen Klopp to rest his key stars for the remainder of the opening match.Mohamed Salah has been one of the most underused players in the competition so far, but once introduced he quickly made an impact.
He got on the scoresheet after coming off the bench to complete Liverpool’s 5-1 win. But regardless of who plays, Klopp’s side are the strongest in terms of squad depth for some time. The Reds eventually fielded a forward line of Diogo Yota, Darwin Nunez and Harvey Elliott. This bodes well for Liverpool, who will be looking to get back to winning ways in May after a trophyless season last season. Nunez looks set to play a key role in Liverpool’s success, with the Uruguayan thriving amid clear signs of progress. His heroics at Newcastle brought him back to life and his latest goal against Toulouse was his ninth in his last 10 games for the club. Don’t forget, he also scored and assisted in a recent international against Brazil.
What matters is how Klopp sees a player’s personality before buying him. Liverpool have never faced problems recruiting from other clubs as unity is central to the former Borussia Dortmund manager’s mantra.
Nunez has represented everything so far and continues to thrive in his second season on Merseyside, so there is little debate as to whether he deserves a move to Anfield should he climb the table. class. Portuguese football. The $103m (£85m/€97m) move is starting to look like a masterpiece.
