‘That’s What I Do Best’: Jota On Playing Striker Under New Liverpool Head Coach Slot
Diogo Jota: Liverpool forward Diogo Jota has been playing across the front three ever since joining Liverpool in 2020. However, with the team’s striker Darwin Nunez being left on the bench, the Portuguese was asked to play up front against Ipswich.
New head coach Arne Slot’s decision to play Jota in the striker position certainly paid off as the former Wolves forward scored the Reds’ first goal of the Premier League season. Jota has now stated that playing the central role is ‘what he does best.’
“It’s obviously a bit different from [Jurgen] Klopp where I maybe was useful out wide. I think here he [Slot] wants our wingers a lot more in one-v-ones and I think we have better options than myself. If I stay in the middle and wait for those chances to come in and score them, I think that is what I do the best so you can take that into the season,” said Jota to LFC’s media team.
