“Always in the game” - Curtis Jones comes up with a new nickname for Liverpool teammate



Curtis Jones has lavished praise on teammate Diogo Jota for his goalscoring prowess and ability to impact games even when the going gets tough.


The Englishman has come up with a new nickname for the Portuguese forward - "the ghost".


Jones


"I'm at the point now where I call him 'the ghost' because he's one of them where you think he's not involved in the game, and then he'll pick up the ball and it'll turn into a goal!


"I've been around a lot of world-class strikers from my Academy days into the U21s and then the [senior] team and he's right up there.


"When the game isn't going his way, it's quite easy for a striker to not be on the ball and not impact the game, but Jots is always in the game."

Jones added


"Even when, say, his touch is a little bit loose and it's not going right, the ball will bounce around the box and it's a Jota goal, and you think, 'Only Jots could do that!


"To have him in the team is amazing. He's a huge help, he always runs and when his confidence is the way it is now, there's no doubt that in every single game he's going to get goals,"
