Aston Villa manager Unai Emery has praised Liverpool duo Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah on Amazon Prime Video (7:55pm, December 26, 2022) after the match against Jurgen Klopp’s side at Villa Park.
Liverpool got the better of Aston Villa 3-1 away from home at Villa Park in the Premier League on Boxing Day.
Egypt international forward Salah opened the scoring in the fifth minute of the match on Monday evening.
Nunez did not score, but the Uruguay international striker was a constant problem for the Villa defence and was arguably the best player on the pitch.
And Villa manager Emery was impressed.

Emery said: “Playing against Liverpool in transition, amazing transition, with Darwin and Salah, but there was really good control during the match in good moments against the strikers.”
Fearsome
In our opinion, Liverpool are a fearsome team with Mohamed Salah and Darwin Nunez in it.
Salah is still scoring goals and is getting chances.
The former Chelsea attacker remains a world-class player.
As for Nunez, yes, the striker needs to take more of the chances that he gets, but he is very quick and is always there at the end of good balls.
Nunez is getting chances, and even if he misses one or two, he does not stop trying and does not give up.
And he works extremely hard.
