Andy Robertson has praised Darwin Nunez's start at Liverpool and says comparing the Uruguayan to Erling Haaland is not fair.Nunez headed in from Robertson’s corner in Wednesday's 3-0 Champions League win at Ajax to register his sixth Reds goal since joining them from Benfica in June.That has come in a total of 13 appearances, with the 23-year-old forward part of the starting line-up in only seven of those games.Asked about expectations on Nunez and comparisons with Haaland, who has continued his remarkable scoring record with 22 goals in 16 Manchester City starts following his summer move from Borussia Dortmund, Robertson said: "The only reason they’re getting compared is because they play the same position and they moved in the same window."Really it’s not fair on anyone – if it was vice versa, it wouldn’t be fair on Haaland either.
It’s two incredible players, and we’re delighted to have Darwin here."He’s still young, which everyone forgets, and in front of goal he’s been really clinical, in terms of he’s maybe not played as many minutes, with the three-game ban (served in August after being sent off against Crystal Palace) and a couple of injuries."And he’s still adapting, but he’s getting there, and (on Wednesday) you could really see what his threats are.
I think he caused Ajax a lot of problems and they were always worried about him, and he got his goal that he definitely deserved."The left-back added: "I think he has settled in really well.
His English is getting better, he’s settled with his family and things like that, and that always helps off the pitch. And then on the pitch, I think he’s settling really well.
