Peter Crouch says Liverpool striker will be 'fuming' at Jurgen Klopp decision against Fulham

Former Liverpool striker Peter Crouch says new signing Darwin Nunez will be 'fuming' at Jurgen Klopp's decision to leave him on the bench for their opening game against Fulham.

The Reds boss opted for a front three of Luis Diaz, Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino to start at Craven Cottage and there was no room in the starting line-up for the Uruguayan. The Liverpool new boy had a positive pre-season and scored against Manchester City in the FA Community Shield last weekend.

Crouch says he wouldn't be happy with the decision in Nunez' shoes but says you can 'understand' Klopp 's decision to stick with Firmino.
