Haaland is the player who has missed more bad balls than Nunez even though he has played less this season.
Darwin Nunez is considered the most entertaining player in the Premier League because he misses easy scoring opportunities and is quite clumsy, but there are still unexpected moments of brilliance and when Nunez is on Liverpool’s field. better stone. However, his clumsiness seems to be exaggerated, because compared to many other Premier League players, Nunez is still nothing.
A recent study by Ticketgum has identified which players have the clumsiest first steps in the Premier League. Luton Town has the largest number of players in the top 10 with full-back Alfie Doughty, 3 strikers Carlton Morris, Jacob Brown and Elijah Adebayo. It’s not surprising because Luton Town is a newly promoted team with low quality players.
It is worth mentioning that in the top 10 there are almost all strikers. In addition to Luton Town’s three strikers, there are Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Beto of Everton, Dominic Solanke of Bournemouth, Jean-Philippe Mateta of Crystal Palace and Morgan Gibbs-White of Nottingham Forest. Besides Doughty, the remaining person in the top 10 who is not a striker is Everton winger Jack Harrison.
This list is actually mostly attacking players, which is not difficult to understand because they often control the ball in an area surrounded by many opposing players and are closely accompanied by people. It is worth mentioning that Solanke, the person who failed to control the most errors with 77 times, had a far greater number of failed ball attempts than second place Morgan Gibbs-White (45 times) because Solanke was almost the trigger for the entire Bournemouth attack while Gibbs -White plays deeper and still has a striker above him.
Among the clubs alone, Nicolas Jackson failed to control Chelsea the most with 17 times while Darwin Nunez failed to control the most 16 times at Liverpool, but in fact they still ranked lower than Erling Haaland of Man City, who failed to control 19 times. (and Haaland has missed several games this season due to injury). Dejan Kulusevski is the player who handled the “clumsiest” step 1 at Tottenham with 15 times, while Alejandro Garnacho failed MU the most with 17 times.
