Last season, Liverpool legend Fowler claimed that forward Darwin Nunez was "not a Liverpool player" and has now been asked whether he holds a similar opinion about any of the Reds' summer signings."I do. "He's raw, he's this, he's that, and we can't keep saying that."So for me, the more I see him, the more I think he's not a Liverpool player.

Now, people might have a go at me for saying this: you know, he works hard; you're not signing a player because he works hard because that should be a prerequisite anyway."You've got to come in, you've got to score goals, and I know he's a fan favourite for what he puts in, but at the time that we're talking now, you've got to perform better, and you've got to do better in the Liverpool shirt."This season, Fowler has already declared that the Reds must be perfect for the remainder of the campaign to have any hope of defending their Premier League crown. He also believes that Liverpool have failed to properly replace Fabinho in defensive midfield since the Brazilian was sold two years ago.Fowler refrained from identifying which summer arrivals he would compare to Nunez.

However, he did offer his verdict on how Frimpong and Kerkez have settled into Liverpool's revamped backline."It's been difficult for Jeremie Frimpong because everyone is thinking he's going to come in and replace Trent, when he's not really been played in the same position as Trent for his whole career," Fowler told Adventure Gamers."Kerkez for me was a player who was outstanding in the Premier League last year. Hence the reason why he was picked in the Premier League team of the year."So there's definitely potential with him as well.
