Nunez has potential that is exciting, but the more I watch him the less I think he’s going to live up to that potential. He’s been here 18 months and he is still playing like he’s brand new to the team & league.
Diaz has been very good for us overall. He has had his issues this season but there have been good reasons for that so he deserves a lot of slack. But with Salah going off next month, we need him to get back to his best.
I think there are a lot of people who overrated our attack before the season started. Salah & Jota are the only consistent scorers. Gakpo is a weird one, because he’s sort of expected to do the Firmino role in that front three, which is does with varying degrees of success. Diaz isn’t super prolific and has been off the boil & Nunez can’t be relied upon to score. We could do with another natural goalscorer in the summer if players don’t step up in the second half of the season.
