Despite being bad news for the whole team, the injury to Cody Gakpo also represents a great opportunity for Darwin Nunez, who has been having a great season, but the rotations had left the charrúa on the bench in the last few games, making the internal competition increasingly fierce.
So the injury to Dutchman Gakpo could be a determining factor in what Núñez will do in the next few games. The injury to Dutchman Gakpo could be a determining factor in what Nunez can show this season as Cody could be out for the next three or four Premier League games, so Darwin's performance during Cody's injury time could define the team's starting striker.
Since Diogo Jota has been performing better and better, however during the last game he was suspended, so the next game against Brighton will be a unique opportunity for Nunez so he will take the field to show that he will be the next striker of the team exploiting his great quality. So Nunez arrives with a great motivation to Falmer Stadium when the Reds visit the Seagulls, being a great game, as Brighton has had a good start to the season and both teams come in need of points, so this will be a great game and the charrua will have to take every opportunity that comes his way in front of goal.
The Reds seemed to have a balanced team in all their lines until last game, as in one of their most populated areas by world class players as it is the attack has suffered two very sensitive casualties by the injury of Gakpo and the expulsion of Jota and is left without options, so Ben Doak will have more minutes of play and the Scottish youth should take advantage and show his potential to earn a place among the regular substitutes of the team.
