Darwin Nunez is set for his third season as a Liverpool player this coming campaign
But the former striker has rejected claims that the coming season under Arne Slot is Nunez's last chance to prove himself at Anfield.
Owen dismisses the theory that Nunez might be discarded if his output doesn't improve but conceded in a chat with AceOdds that the Uruguay international may have already reached his peak at the age of 25. "But with his age, you think to yourself, well, if he’s not learned it by now and I've been saying it for a couple of years now, but probably I'm starting to think that what you see is what you get now. A talented boy who's got great attributes that will certainly have a big role to play for Liverpool.
"Unless Pep Guardiola walked in through the door, then it's a comedown, isn't it from Jurgen Klopp. So, people have just got to get their heads around that. Back the new manager, hope that everything goes well, obviously, Liverpool fans will give him time and give him support and everything else like that. That's all that can happen. But as I say, unless Pep Guardiola walks through the door at Anfield, then it's going to be a come-down on Jurgen Klopp.
"So, a lot of teams that have had a manager for a long period of time tend to struggle straight after. But that's not to say, two examples in the Premier League era aren’t sufficient to say, that's going to be exactly the same. So, who knows? But what you do know is that Jürgen Klopp was an incredible manager. That's going to be huge boots to fill.
