On Merseyside, the whole team is enjoying the high level of the team, as both the first team players and the substitutes are performing excellently. Diogo Jota has already surpassed by far his numbers at Wolverhampton, where in 131, he scored 44 goals and made 19 assists, which earned him the Reds €49 million, certainly a low price for what Jota is doing today.

This season he has already registered 13 goals and 3 assists in 25 games played for the Reds, with these numbers the Portuguese reached his 54th goal for the Reds and 20 assists in 138 games. Having 10 more goals and 1 assist in 7 more games played than at Wolverhampton. Along with Mohamed Salah and Darwin Nunez, he was the top scorer of the team.

So thanks to his fine season, Jota after scoring his 8th Premier League goal against Chelsea on Wednesday, was christened by teammate Curtis Jones as "The Ghost", who according to @_pauljoyce, was for his great ability to go unnoticed in games only then, out of nowhere, to offer a decisive moment.

So while this is a way of showing the great camaraderie that exists on Merseyside, it also speaks to the respect that Jota is earning with the excellent season he is having on and off the pitch, as his teammates know what he is capable of, so the Portuguese is not only earning a place as a starter, but as a benchmark player in the team.

The German coach could not contain his delight at what Diogo Jota is doing this season as he said: "He is literally flying. Everything seems light, fresh, explosive. He's an extremely intelligent footballer," and this is the perfect time for Jota to convince Klopp to make him the first-choice starter. This also gives the team more togetherness, as things go well together and individually.
