Liverpool

As Liverpool’s threat grows, Jurgen Klopp’s greatest strength is improving.

 

  Add something completely different. Liverpool’s current forward combination is unlikely to reach the heights of the trio of Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah, but the club has never had a better front five to choose from.

Jurgen Klopp is a very lucky manager. They all have different strengths. Salah is the most reliable player in terms of performance and presence, Cody Gakpo can cover a variety of positions including midfield and Luis Diaz is a player who can use his dribbling ability to win penalty kicks and block defenders straight .

(recent Merseyside derby). Darwin Nunez is adept at getting into positions that help create high-quality scoring opportunities.

It would be nice if he converted more often, but you have to play the hand you’re dealt. Now Diogo Jota remains behind, who can be said to be a predator in the penalty area.

Recent performances have suggested that his game could develop in a very beneficial way for Liverpool. The Portugal international scored an Opta-rated goal in the 3-0 win over Brentford. This was when the player moved the ball more than 5 meters before scoring and Jota received Kostas Tsimikas’ pass, created space and sent a beautiful shot into the Kop’s end goal.

His attempts to score from the ball were unlikely, but his expected goal value was just 0.01 compared to 0.07 where the ball was scored.

Charges that end up as objectives are rarer than you might think. Salah is one of four players to have two in the Premier League for the 2023/24 season, while Firmino and Nunes topped the Reds’ tally with those numbers last season.However, Jota has two players in the Europa League this season, with Toulouse’s This Darling the oldest player in the competition.

This makes for an interesting matchup as both players have scored similar goals in matches between their respective teams.When the French side traveled to Anfield, Jota had Joe Gomez in his possession thanks to his move from Darlinga. Liverpool’s number 20 then headed the ball into the box in front of the center circle.

Although he didn’t have to travel far on the return, Jota dribbled back into the penalty area and scored the ball.

The 26-year-old’s ability to carry the ball into positions of little direct value has seen him generate expected goal chances of 0.57 and 0.26 respectively.
