We are very laboured in attack though. So many touches. That hasn't helped him. Elliott and Gakpo, both technically gifted, they overplay it alot.
Slot is much more about speed than Klopp according to those speaking about him (he loves flying wingers who take on their marker in one on ones). Diaz is the only one now still doing that for us, and he's looked by far the most dangerous.
The numbers of shots we have per game can make it look like we are wasting a hatful, but alot of those chances are not clear cut at all. If you hadnt watched today's game and seen the stats (28 shots to 11) you'd have thought "how did we not win that", and yet we didn't really test the keeper much; our two goals were howlers by them (gk weak hands, and an OG via 3 West Ham players). This ponderous attacking play isn't conducive to a player like Nunez, the more swift, direct play that Slot apparently demands is.
The midfield not having enough athleticism doesn't help matters either. Our whole game needs sped up. An athletic DM, Mac and Dom advanced in the 8s, two quick wingers, that would give the like of Nunez more to work with. He may not be the answer, but he definitely isn't the answer the way we are playing now.
