Pep Lijnders names one thing that is 'really difficult to coach' which makes Diogo Jota special

"There is always space for passionate players at Liverpool. Diogo has a great desire to learn our game and he will add something," Pep Lijnders told the Liverpool ECHO.

"He is at the same level technically as our front three. The one thing I have found really difficult to coach is the intuition in the box and being in the right position to score - the pure instinct of a striker.

"This is what we want from many players of course but especially our front three. In 10 or 15 minutes was three or four times in a position to score so that's really something good."

Diogo Jota has already shown his quality despite playing a total of 45 minutes in two games for Liverpool so far. The Portuguese attacker impressed in 34 minutes in the cup clash against Lincoln City and even scored a goal in 11 minutes in the Premier League victory over Arsenal.
