Liverpool fans think that Diogo Jota aimed a dig at Jordan Henderson after the game

Liverpool fans are all saying the same thing after hearing what Diogo Jota has had to say about his link-up with Alexis Mac Allister.

The Argentine made his Liverpool debut on Wednesday evening as the Reds kicked off their pre-season campaign with a 4-2 win over German side Karlsruher SC.

Jota scored in the 90th minute to make it 3-2 before latching onto a through ball from Mac Allister to make it four.

After the match, Jota was asked about his immediate link-up with the new signing and his response has got fans talking. You can watch the footage below.

Jota said: “I really like these kinds of players, I have to tell you.

“They just see these passes. It’s almost like, you just need to make the run and they will see it and that’s amazing.”

He continued: ““I start to see I can link up very well with him [Mac Allister] and hopefully we can take this into the season.”

Fans were quick to react to Jota’s words on social media.

One said: “Jota basically says he was tired of hoofball.”

Another tweeted: “The happiness in his eyes when he says "they can see the passes””

A third fan added: “Look at Jota’s face knowing Mac and Szoboszlai will be behind him.”

Someone else wrote: “Man said I played with hoof boy hendo now mans got ballers.”

Whilst a fifth commented: “The face of a man who knows he no longer has to play with Hooferson.”

Another fan said: “He literally exposed all the midfielders we had last season.”
