Darwin Núñez needs to learn something from Luis Díaz to perform at Liverpool

"The issue of confidence is very important, because without it you don't win games or achieve your goals," Luis Díaz told TNT Sports Brazil about what Jürgen Klopp has given him in the nine months he has been at Liverpool. The Colombian has accumulated 37 games with 10 goals and 6 assists. Despite the team's poor start, the winger has been one of those who has stood out the most and the product of this has been the "grit" and "desire to keep fighting", which he himself has mentioned.

Díaz, unlike Núñez, was able to adapt more quickly. The Uruguayan assured that it is still difficult for him to understand what the coach is asking of him, who made it clear that he is not worried about Darwin as he is in the process of adapting to the team's idea. For the Colombian, one of the keys to being influential in such a short time has been the management of the emotional and footballing side.

"We all know what is played in the Premier League, the intensity of each game. Every team gives its all and it makes it more interesting. I try to play my game emotionally and personally to help the team. It depends on the situation of each game, but I try to give my best. What characterises me is my grit, my desire to keep fighting and do better and better," he told the Brazilian media outlet.

Liverpool are second in Champions League group A with three points behind Napoli and in the Premier League they are ninth with 10 points, 11 behind leaders Arsenal. For the Colombian, the most important thing to get back to being protagonists is "to win, win and win, that gives you more confidence. Not only that, but also to play well, to like and be satisfied that you gave everything. For me that's the most important thing. What you don't do so well you improve in training".

Luis Díaz and the absence of Sadio Mané. Much has been said about the Senegalese's departure, with Paul Merson claiming it was one of the worst sales in history. However, at Liverpool the subject is now behind them and although the team's effectiveness has diminished, it has not only been down to the absence of the now Bayern player, but also the ability of opponents to counter the Reds' attacking power.

"I think the team-mates have emphasised that. Obviously he is needed in any team, but he went to a big club because of what he did and here we are aware of the group we have, working every day to play better games. Those of us who are here are here to help and game by game the team is looking better," said Diaz. Finally, the winger who will be one of the big absentees in Qatar 2022, said that it is a pity not to have been able to qualify with Colombia, but he expects to see a great competition and will closely follow Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay and Ecuador, the teams that will represent Conmebol.
