The former Reds legend described <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/video-darwin-nunez-sublime-liverpool-striker-nets-outrageous-dink-woeful-defending-sergio-reguilon/blt53eb0d3c5b1b9d13#cs1a888ea70f190ac5" target="_blank">Darwin Nunez's opening strike against Brentford</a> as "insane" as he was left in disbelief by the Uruguayan forward's ability to convert such an outrageous goal. Owen, though, also shared a word of advice for the former Benfica player as he urged him to adapt his way of thinking going forward.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Reacting to Nunez's goal, the former England international took to <a href="https://twitter.com/themichaelowen/status/1759173574886133890" target="_blank">X where he wrote</a>, "That finish from Darwin Nunez yesterday was insane. I can’t stop watching it. And I can’t begin to explain how difficult a skill that is. Moving at pace, the ball running away from you, being inside the box with no room for error. Incredible. But, it is also further proof that if he is to get closer to becoming the great player many people think he can be, he has to adapt his way of thinking. "I mean, to even consider that finish is madness. It’s a 1 in 10, 2 in 10 finish at best. Learning to slot, dink or go round the GK is a far more productive way to score and will increase his chances to 4 or 5 in 10, thus massively increasing his end return. I’m really not trying to rain on his parade as that goal was pure class. But I’d rather see it when Liverpool are 3-0 up, not at 0-0."

WHAT MICHAEL OWEN SAID

After handing his team in the first half, the 24-year-old striker <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/is-darwin-nunez-injured-why-liverpool-striker-taken-off-at-half-time-against-brentford/blt362e8509921036d6#csd7a80de538df8a64" target="_blank">was taken offat half-time</a> which Jurgen Klopp described to be a precautionary measure as the player felt some discomfort during the half-time break. Liverpool were also jolted by the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/injury-disaster-liverpool-diogo-jota-knee-issue-curtis-jones-brentford-mohamed-salah-return/blt437ba0b65a27a61f#csa785bdd899a17955" target="_blank">injuries to Curtis Jones and Diogo Jota</a> who were also forced off to add to the club's injury woes.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Klopp's side maintained their two-point lead at the top of the table after Saturday's victory. They will next take on Luton Town in the Premier League on Wednesday.
