The Uruguayan was brilliant in their 4-0 thrashing of Bournemouth at the weekend, scoring twice to take his tally 10 goals and 10 assists for the season.

The great thing about Darwin, which is what fans love. He never gives up, he always has a go.
Yeah, he has got his failings but the Liverpool fans absolutely love what he gives and he doesn't stop trying.
I just think he has to be a bit cuter with his finishing but didn't we see that in the Bournemouth game?
A great move, he comes, a little bit, dare I say it, Thierry Henry-like. And he just glides it into the far corner.
