Liverpool assistant manager Pep Lijnders has recently praised the exceptional performance of Diogo Jota, highlighting his impact on the team in the absence of Mohamed Salah. With Salah away representing Egypt at the Africa Cup of Nations, Jota has stepped up his game, scoring two goals and providing two assists since the beginning of January.
Lijnders commends Jota's ability to thrive when he is in an 'angry mood,' likening him to former Liverpool forwards Sadio Mané and Roberto Firmino. He acknowledges that Jota possesses incredible skills and can accomplish extraordinary things when he is determined to prove himself.
