Liverpool striker Diogo Jota: Feels like I'm playing for different club

Liverpool striker Diogo Jota says the club is very difference from the one he joined a year ago.

The Portugal international recently celebrated one year as a Liverpool player after joining the Reds in September 2020.

"I remember how hard it was to play at Anfield being an opposition player," Jota said.

"Then last year I wasn't able to play a lot at Anfield with the fans supporting us inside a full stadium like I am doing this season.

"It feels almost like I am playing in a different club from last season because we couldn't have that support and I believe that our fans are extremely important for us."

Jota added: "I feel like we are still developing our connections on the field and I think we can improve on that but that obviously develops with game-time and facing different opponents together.

"But hopefully, along with Bobby Firmino, as a front four we can get a lot of goals this season if we do the right things."
