Former Uruguay midfielder Gustavo Poyet believes Liverpool ‘s compatriot Darwin Nunez still has to prove he has the quality to hold down a regular place at Anfield .
“He has to accept his situation,” Poyet said. “As a player you have to accept where you are. The best example is the second and third choice goalkeepers. They hardly play, but they train every day.”
“They have to be ready to start when they get the chance and nobody will remember them, but they are a big part of any successful team. Every team needs them, but they accept their role and make sure they are doing what they can to support the team.”
“However, he needs to accept his part,” Poyet added สมัคร ufabet. “As a player, you need to accept which piece of the team you are. The best example is the second and third-choice goalkeepers.
“They hardly ever play but they train every day, they warm up the starting keeper, and nobody remembers them but they are a huge part of any team that wins a league title. They accept their role and make sure they are doing what they can to support the rest of the team.
“Nunez is a key part of this Liverpool team but he won’t start every week. He has to accept his role and his performances will determine whether he plays more often. When he gets the chance, it’s up to him to show whether he deserves more minutes or if he deserves to be a regular starter for the team.”
This season, the 25-year-old striker has played 18 games in all competitions for Liverpool, scoring just three goals.
