Ian Rush sends Instagram message to Diogo Jota after ‘fantastic’ Liverpool display
Liverpool produced a stunning Champions League display to thrash Atalanta 5-0 last night in Group D of the competition and received praise from Ian Rush afterwards.
The Reds were comfortable throughout and won the game courtesy of a hat-trick from Diogo Jota and goals from Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane.
Liverpool have endured some rotten luck with injuries and faced the Serie A club without Virgil van Dijk and Fabinho.
Since a 7-2 defeat to Aston Villa before the last international break, Jurgen Klopp’s men have been in fine form and now look back on track.
Following last night’s trip to Italy, they received praise from Liverpool legend Rush and he also sent a message to Jota after his heroics.
Jota already looks like a smart piece of business from a Liverpool perspective.
Some supporters had questioned whether or not the 23-year-old had the required quality to challenge Salah, Mane and Roberto Firmino for a place in the team.
Just over a month into his time at Anfield, he is busy making a mockery of such suggestions.
The Portugal international has scored seven goals in 10 games and is looking like a quality signing already.
Liverpool boast arguably the best attack in European football and it’s fair to say Jota has complemented the squad nicely.
Klopp has a good group of players, despite the recent injuries.
On current form, they still look like the team to beat in the Premier League and they could challenge for the Champions League.
Atalanta captured the hearts of Europe with their attacking style of football last season.
Last night, they were handed a lesson by Liverpool and a taste of their own medicine.
