Liverpool vs Lille: Slot challenges Liverpool striker Nunez to prove he is elite

The Hindu  

Liverpool boss Arne Slot has challenged Darwin Nunez to prove he is an elite striker as the much-maligned Uruguayan looks to take advantage of Diogo Jota’s latest injury. The Portugal forward’s absence has provided another opportunity for Nunez to finally prove his worth, starting with Tuesday’s Champions League tie against French team Lille at Anfield. But it’s always nice to get compliments.” Slot also said it did not matter if Liverpool finishes top of the league phase because it will not guarantee an easy last-16 opponent. “With this strange new format, I’m not thinking the league table in a way that if you finish number one you get the easiest team,” he said.
