Liverpool striker Jota: We know we’re expected to beat Forest

Liverpool striker Diogo Jota accepts they’re expected to beat Nottingham Forest today.

Jota says the players can handle such expectations.

“Yeah, that is the responsibility of playing in a team like Liverpool,” says the Portugal international.

“Obviously people are expecting us to win all the time and especially these kind of games and we as professionals have to prove that on the pitch. That is the hardest part but I believe here at Anfield we can win the match.

“I think we have developed a lot as a team and we are focused now on this, let’s say, new idea. Obviously the midfield being a lot different, we kind of have a different play style, that suits us to play against a lower block and more defensive teams. And it’s getting better, the results are the most important thing and we are doing things right until now and we want to continue in that way.”
