Predators in the penalty area is one commodity Jürgen Klopp has plenty of in his squad, devourers of competing objectives, attackers who have an unquenchable desire for goals. Few teams in England, if any, have an aggressive front with as many players as this one with pointed canines. An attack that is required to contend for the Premier League. With Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah’s relentless attacking, it will be simpler to make it three in a row.
Although the Egyptian has scored goals every game since moving to Anfield, the Uruguayan is showing that his 15 goals and 5 assists from his debut season at Liverpool were only the beginning. Together, the two are becoming more and more compatible, as seen by their seventh-season victory (3-0) over Nottingham Forest.
They are now at 23 points, three behind league leaders Tottenham, thanks to goals from Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah as well as a 1-0 victory from Diogo Jota, who became just the second Portuguese player after Cristiano Ronaldo to achieve 50 Premier League goals. The Reds’ attempt to win the league title hinges on their ability to keep Anfield a stronghold. Liverpool has won eight of its last eight games at home across all competitions.
Salah and Nunez, the best duo
Jürgen Klopp’s team resorted to their “9” because of the Uruguayan’s confidence and his five games of goals or assists. The ‘9’ came through brilliantly. With these stats, the two are considered as the next team that might rule the Premier League and replace players like Bernardo Silva and Erling Haaland.
