When asked to name Liverpool players who are not appreciated enough, Mohamed Salah told Astro Sport: "I think Darwin and Cody.
"Cody doesn't get credit because the fans I don't know if they really understand his game or not. But he is a very, very clever player. I admire the way he thinks, it's very, very good. He is young and wants to learn, he asks a lot of questions.
"Darwin is a key for us as well. The way he plays, the way he opens space for us, it's very good. But he doesn't get a lot of credit because once he misses a chance, others' fans start to jump (on him) and Liverpool fans start defending him and he's inside that mess. But for me, he's one of the best players on the team."
Gakpo has scored 14 goals in 45 appearances so far this season for Liverpool. The Dutchman has been criticised for failing to impact games when coming on as a substitute in the Premier League.
Darwin is currently on 18 goals and 13 assists in 45 matches. The Uruguayan has often come under fire for missing sitters in crucial games.
