Rio Ferdinand has claimed Darwin Nunez will command a starting place in Liverpool’s side after Saturday’s draw at Fulham.
The Reds kicked off their 2022/2023 Premier League campaign with a disappointing 2-2 draw at Craven Cottage, with Jurgen Klopp’s men twice having to come from behind to salvage a point. The first of those goals came from Nunez, and it was the Uruguayan’s touch that fell to Mohamed Salah for the second in a statement league debut.
But despite Klopp’s new arrival putting in an impressive 40–minute spell, the Liverpool manager will have been left frustrated by a lethargic performance on the opening day as Aleksandar Mitrović scored twice and caused endless problems.
