Liverpool hammered West Ham United to continue their march towards the Premier League title and Reds fans have been lauding the performance of Luis Diaz.
𒁏Diaz got himself another goal to take his tally to eight for the season as he once again started in the central striker position.
🦄Right now, the experiment with Diaz down the middle is working nicely for Liverpool and their manager Arne Slot.
๊Of course, it means that Diogo Jota and Darwin Nunez are needing to make do with a place on the bench, especially as Mo Salah and Cody Gakpo continue to shine.
Indeed, ꩲMichael Owen has claimed the three of Diaz, Salah, and Gakpo🍸 are in the form of their lives and as it stands, Diaz is not going anywhere from this starting XI.
🍌Over on social media, then, the Liverpool fans were out in force when it came to praising Diaz.
Liverpool fans make point about Luis Diaz after his performance at West Ham
ꦺWhile Luis Diaz is well-liked by most of the Liverpool fans and he’s been a success since signing, there are those who’ve had doubts since he was linked with Barcelona in the summer.
ꦫHowever, after his performance at West Ham and another goal, Liverpool fans on X have lauded the Colombian.
⭕Another fan also spoke on Diaz, suggesting he is the most feared player outside of Mo Salah.
“Luis Diaz is the most slept on player in this Liverpool resurgence this season. Slot has tweaked his role to perfection. He’s the main player opponents fear outside of Salah and if they don’t… they’ll find out.”
꧂While another fan, , went further and suggested he was even better than Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka.
“This is the luis diaz they were comparing to Martinelli, he is even better than saka”
🙈While another fan, , also went down the line of speaking about Anthony Gordon being Diaz’s replacement.
“Never forget people wanted Luis Diaz sold for “Gordon” in the summer”
Can Luis Diaz be Liverpool’s new Mo Salah?
📖Mohamed Salah’s numbers are bordering on the insane at the moment but there’s going to come a point where someone has to step up and replace those numbers.
Luis Diaz𝔉 very much has all the attributes that Salah has to do that. He’s quick, tenacious, strong when running in behind and on his day, he can finish.
꧅The key for Diaz now is to remain consistent with his performances and when he does get chances, make sure he takes them.
ꦕFrom there, he can develop further and maybe, just maybe, become Liverpool’s eventual Salah replacement from within.
