Recently, Uruguayan coach Bielsa spoke about forward Núñez’s ability to capitalize on chances in an interview. Bielsa said that he believes Núñez knows how to handle goalscoring opportunities, and the team’s job is to create as many chances for him as possible.
Speaking about Núñez’s ability to seize opportunities, Bielsa said: “My only concern is whether he can find the best position on the pitch, whether he can be in the most threatening positions as often as possible, and then do what he’s always been good at, which is to score, to finish, to complete an attack, to choose the best shooting angle.”
“I won’t say scoring is the only value, otherwise my point would be contradictory. What I’m saying is the opposite. If he scores, he scores; if he misses a chance, he misses. Does he know how to handle chances? He does.”
Bielsa then said that Núñez’s best attribute is his ability to create and win chances: “What better way to support a player who doesn’t need support? He has proven he can solve the problem, and all we need to do is create as many chances as possible for him.”
