This thread needs a bump

Okay I'm watching his goals compilation on LFC TV. He's had a few misses lately so want to dive further into the kind of player he is

    Liverpool debut: 24.09.2020
    Last appearance: 11.12.2021
    Debut goal: 28.09.2020
    Last goal: 01.12.2021
    Contract expiry: 30.06.2025
    Win ratio: 63.27% W:31 D:11 L:7
    Games/goals ratio: 2.23
    League games / goals / assists: 34 / 17 / 1
    Total games / goals / assists: 49 / 22 / 2


From the start it was cheeky punts poacher style. Not afraid to dangle foot out or head the ball if it gets to the back of the net

Not afraid of an opportunity.

Humbled United. Dribbled through Arsenal. Scythed Southampton.

This boy can be lethal

That would have been some goal had it gone in, I love the way he is so instinctive with his chances feel he will score second half.

Great goal, but he should have had a penalty as well. Why did VAR not interfere as Tepid said in the commentary it was a clear mistake by the referee.

And another header wasn't too far off the top corner. He really is a great header of the ball.

Our best player today for me. His pressing and dropping in between the lines to pick up the ball in threatening positions is great. He’s deserving of the start over Bobby now as much as I love him.

I use Whatsapp during the game with my family. Yesterday I said "has Jota even touched the ball yet?" about 30 seconds before he scored.  ;D

Yeah, it's actually an invaluable quality for a player to have - to look like he's not in the game for X minutes and then suddenly score from nothing.

Our other attackers are always noticeably in the game - even when Salah is triple marked he's only triple-marked as he's so obviously a danger, and so is affecting the game by his very presence, and drawing all the oppo's attention. Mane runs them ragged all the time and Bobby can be found in almost every position except keeper.

But Diogo is like a ghost, stealing around the attacking third unseen, slipping between the lines and through the cracks of the game and, like all the best phantoms, suddenly appearing from nowhere to scare the crap out of defenders and keepers, and make them cry out in terror and frustration as he slots one home and wheels away in celebration...
