171 Everything has been going swimmingly for Liverpool so far this season.
The Reds are top of the league, their best players are in incredible form, and they look in good shape to mount a real title challenge.
However, there is a problem on the horizon at Anfield now.
Indeed, Mohamed Salah is set to head off to the African Cup of Nations shortly, and that will leave the Reds light in attack.
Luckily, the likes of Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota are starting to find a bit of form, but speaking on CBS, Nigel Reo-Coker has expressed concerns about one Liverpool player in particular.
Indeed, Reo-Coker says that his biggest worry for Liverpool right now is Darwin Nunez, noting that he missed yet another fantastic chance against Newcastle on Monday.
Nunez a big worry
Reo-Coker shared his verdict on the £70m man.
My biggest worry is still Darwin Nunez, he had a great chance one on one where he should’ve scored, he didn’t score, but when Isak had that same chance he did score, but with Jota I think Liverpool have the staying power to stay top,” Reo-Coker said.
Could cost Liverpool
Nunez has been wasteful pretty much all season long, but the brilliance of Salah has bailed the Reds out on a number of key occasions.
Nunez has gotten away with his wastefulness as the results have still been coming, but now, with Salah out of the picture for a few weeks, Nunez may begin to become more and more of a problem.
Of course, the Uruguayan can be a very useful striker when he has his shooting boots on, but, recently he’s been way to profligate in front of goal.
If Nunez doesn’t buck his ideas up, the Reds could really struggle without Salah in the side over these next few weeks.
Fingers crossed Nunez can get back on track and find a bit of form in this crucial period.
