495 Jurgen Klopp retains full faith in Darwin Nunez and thinks he will become a key player in his Liverpool side soon.
A report by Sky Sports says that Klopp and his assistant Pep Lijnders have recently had a long conversation with Nunez at the training ground.
They have told him to ignore the noise and those who have criticised his game since he came to England and do what earned him his big move.
Liverpool apparently have absolutely no concerns over his form and adjustment to life in English football after moving to Anfield.

Klopp has full faith in Darwin
And they have told him he will develop into a key player for a Reds side which may well have just turned the corner after beating Manchester City.
Liverpool believe Nunez is not far from full confidence and he can explode into being a regular starter at Anfield before long.
Nunez attracted attention on Sunday by failing to play the ball to Mo Salah to kill the game off against City, choosing to go alone and seeing his shot blocked.
That hinted at a player who is desperate for a bit of form and confidence and it impacted his decision-making on that occasion.
In the summer, former Reds defender Abel Xavier called Nunez a ‘fantastic‘ signing and tipped his old club to win the league.
As it has turned out, Erling Haaland has ripped up the Premier League with Manchester City, which has put even more pressure on Nunez, although of course the Norwegian did not score on Sunday.
