Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez is backing Cody Gakpo for big things at Anfield.

Gakpo is off the mark after scoring in victory over Everton on Monday night.

Nunez said, "Here at Liverpool I have teammates who are all high-quality footballers. I need to be able to understand how they play a little more and it's the same for them with me. It's what settling into each other's games is all about.

"They get used to how I play and, in turn, I grow accustomed to how they play. I think that in time we'll start to see some good and positive results.

"For example, Gakpo is a quality player and has a lot of class. He's physically strong too. I think he'll be able to make people very happy at Liverpool.

"You have to also understand that he's come here at a time when we're not in the best of form and he will need time to settle in too.

"I think he's done well in the games he's featured in so far. I hope that with time I'll develop a great understanding and then go on to bring some joy to the Liverpool fans."
