Ahead of the Merseyside Derby, A former Liverpool star has claimed he would prefer Everton's Dominic Calvert-Lewin over Darwin Nunez in the Reds side.
The Merseyside rivals will do battle in the first derby of the season at Anfield on Saturday afternoon, with Jurgen Klopp's looking in better shape.
Nunez has looked a little more livelier this season for the Reds, having registered three goals and two assists so far.

Calvert-Lewin has scored twice in five matches but former Reds full-back Jose Enrique says he would take the England striker over Nunez.
"Obviously, Liverpool fans are not going to like hearing this from me, but with both Darwin Nunez and Dominic Calvert-Lewin fully fit, I think I would take Calvert-Lewin," Enrique said to Grosvenor Sport.
"People seem to forget how good Calvert-Lewin is when he's fully fit – he's an excellent player. The way I see it – put Darwin Nunez in any world-class teams in the world and I don't think he's starts for most of them.
"However, if Calvert-Lewin could keep himself fit, I really believe he could be a starting number nine for a world class team, that's the kind of level I see from him.
"Even when Darwin Nunez is scoring goals for Liverpool, I still have my doubts about him as a player under Jurgen Klopp. I love him and think he would do well for loads of other teams who play counter-attacking football – he's outstanding for that – but for a team that presses a lot like Liverpool do, I'm not so sure."
