Arne Slot confirms the Diogo Jota plan because Liverpool has to hold onto the timely thrust

Liverpool will continue to be careful with the Portugal striker Diogo Jota, who started his first start in the Premier League against his old club wolves at the weekend in about four months.

Arne Slot has confirmed that he doesn’t start in each of the three games this week. The 28-year-old was against wolves in the starting line-up, but will get out for one of the games with Aston Villa and Manchester City. The red had the chance to move 10 points at the upper part of the table with the week.

“He has a role like many others,” said Slot during his press conference ahead of Aston Villa. “He made himself so good before his injury and we missed him for three or four months.

“We missed the number nine who played the first seven or eight games in every game. He is now. He has played 60 (minutes against wolves) and we do not expect that he will play 90, 90 and 90 this week , but we hope he is involved in three games.

While Liverpool would have played more than Arsenal after completing the Aston Villa game, the red 10 points could be ahead of the Gunners in the overall ranking if they defeated the UNAI Emery team. That would offer a great psychological advantage before the last third of the campaign, and it is always better to have the points on the board than in hand.

“It helps if you have already experienced it – Not only me, but also the players, “said Slot about dealing with the pressure in the enema.” But it is difficult to take it from there-different players, teams and leagues.

“Yesterday Barcelona was about to 1: 1. It is the final phase of the season in which such results are widespread. It tells them that they have a team that fights until the end. They have to win these games.”

Liverpool.com says: Jota is a big capital for Liverpool when he is fit and his return is a big boost. Starting him three times a week would be a massive risk. Instead, Darwin Nunez was able to go out with Cody Gakpo in the middle of the week to miss it. The room behind the Aston Villa defense should be something in which it can thrive even though it was very poor when he came against wolves.
