Darren Bent has said on talkSPORT (4:10pm, December 2, 2021) that Liverpool forward Diogo Jota has taken his game to another level.

The former Tottenham Hotspur striker has been impressed by Liverpool forward Jota so far this season.

Bent said on talkSPORT (4:10pm, December 2, 2021): “Even Diogo Jota at the minute, he has gone to another level with his performances.”

Diogo Jota has replaced Roberto Firmino in Liverpool XI

Firmino is injured at the moment, and Liverpool are unlikely to have the Brazil international forward back until mid-December.

Now, many would suggest that Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp would simply put Firmino in the starting lineup when he is back.

However, in our view, Jota is doing extremely well for Liverpool, and it would be very harsh on the Portugal international if he is dropped.

The 24-year-old, who cost Liverpool £41 million (BBC Sport), has scored eight goals and provided one assist in 11 Premier League starts for Liverpool so far this season.

Jota has scored one goal in three Champions League starts for the Reds so far this campaign.

Liverpool are winning matches and scoring goals with Jota in the team.

In our opinion, there is no need for Klopp to change anything in attack for the time being.
