Gary Neville names what Liverpool are 'missing' and makes Darwin Nunez claim

Gary Neville has praised Darwin Nunez for his performance against Arsenal on Sunday but raised the alarm bell when it came to Liverpool's 'physical drop-off'.

Nunez has struggled to make an impact since moving to Anfield from Benfica in the summer but the Uruguayan was on the mark in north London on Sunday, bravely bundling home a low cross from Luis Diaz to pull the sides level in 34th minute.

Mikel Arteta's side would eventually go on to win the contest 3-2 but having come in for some criticism since joining the Reds, Sky Sports pundit Neville was keen to apportion praise Nunez on only his third Premier League start of the season.
