Manchester United legend Andy Cole has not taken kindly to comparisons linking him with struggling Liverpool star Darwin Nunez after the Reds striker's poor performance against Manchester City on Thursday.
Nunez was guilty of some wasteful finishing on a number of occasions against the reigning Premier League champions as Liverpool fell to a 3-2 defeat and were subsequently dumped out of the Carabao Cup. The Uruguayan had a hat-trick of efforts that were all dragged wide of the post, failing to even get his strikes on target.
After the game, some suggested that while Nunez's finishing leaves a lot to be desired, the fact he is finding chances is a positive and is similar to the way Cole used to operate for the Red Devils.
