Liverpool defender Trent Alexander Arnold has backed his colleague Darwin Nunez to succeed at Liverpool, adding that he believes he will eventually silence his haters.
The Liverpool right-back came to the defence of the striker whom he believes is currently having his own side of out-of-form phase.
Arnold told SkySports that Nunez will bounce back and live to the hype.
Arnold said: “He’s a player who I think it’s easy to just write him off, it’s easy to say he’s not scoring goals. But he’s getting himself into areas and places where he’s able to hurt the opposition and that’s all you can really ask. We have faith that the goals will start coming. No-one here is thinking about that. We are all behind him and we are all supporting him. It’s always good to see him on the scoresheet, but as long as the team wins, that’s all anyone cares about.
“It’s always going to be different, but I think that’s just part of football. I don’t think you can get used to playing with certain players because the football world chops and changes every single season.
The England defender also spoke about Sadio Mane who left the club to Bayern Munich just before the start of the season. He said the Senegalese is sourly missed at Anfield and he is a world class player that will valuable to any team.
Arnold said: “You can’t just rely on certain players. Sadio is a world-class player and has been for many years. He’s someone who will help any team he’s at and do the things he does to a level that others can’t, so of course we are going to miss what he brings to the team. But we’ve got other players with different qualities who bring different things to our game who will help us in what we need to do.”
Since joining Liverpool, Darwin Nunez has scored nine goals in twenty two matches across all competitions.
