187 Darwin Nunez is a seriously polarising figure in world football.
The Uruguayan is like marmite, you either love him or you hate him.
His goal against Bournemouth this week summed that up perfectly. While some were in awe of his finish, others were laying into him for his poor first-touch.
Speaking on the Sky Sports Premier League YouTube channel, Eberechi Eze has been discussing the striker and his shooting rating on the new EA FC 24 game.
Nunez has a shooting rating of just 81, which is lower than the likes of Marcus Rashford, and Eze reckons that the Uruguayan has been a bit hard done by in this regard, claiming that his shooting should be higher.
Nunez’s shooting underrated
Eze shared his verdict on the attacker.
“Lower (than Rashford). I think 81 is a bit low for Darwin, I don’t know what I would give him, but I think 81 or 82 for these guys is a bit…” Eze said.
Difficult to say
We certainly don’t envy anyone who has to give Nunez’s shooting a rating on the EA FC games.
The striker is a seriously hot and cold player. He can just as easily score a 30 yard screamer as he can miss a sitter from five yards.
Nunez clearly has incredible technique, but his composure lets him down at times, and that all has to factor into this.
There aren’t many better strikers of the ball in the world – when Nunez hits one, it stays hit, but when presented with a simple chance, you can almost see him overthinking it sometimes.
Nunez has the ability to be one of the very best strikers in the world, but he needs to finetune his game if he’s going to be considered at that level.
