Manchester United legend, Rio Ferdinand has insisted that Darwin Nunez will be an âeffective strikerâ for Liverpool.
This is despite another mixed performance from the Uruguayan signed for £85m last summer.
Nunez returned to the Reds team after recovering from injury and had a golden opportunity to double Liverpoolâs lead but watched his effort hit the post with an open goal in front of him.
He, however, managed to find the back of the net shortly after half-time.
Ferdinand told BT Sport “There were good and bad moments for him.
“He had a bit of an indifferent night. Thereâs moments with him where youâre just scratching your head but then he scored which is what youâve bought him for.
“The thing with him is he always tries to get in the box and score goals, his head never drops, heâs tenacious, he wants to graft and fight. Thatâs definitely a plus, you want that on your side.
“Heâs never going to be the cleanest of strikers but he will be an effective striker in the long run, an effective striker who scores goals at this football club.
“As a defender, he would be hard to play against, he would give a lot of defenders a hard daysâ work.”
