Diogo Jota has made quite an incredible start to his Liverpool career.

The Portuguese scored a hat-trick during his side’s 5-0 Champions League victory over Atalanta on Tuesday night.

That took his tally to seven goals in 10 appearances since his £45 million move from Wolves.

How has he settled so quickly at Anfield?

Well, it seems captain Jordan Henderson deserves some credit.

That’s because Jota revealed the text message he received from the skipper even before his first training session.

"Even before I arrived for my first training session he already texted me, saying that he will be there for me, saying welcome,” Jota revealed.

“It was a big thing for me and I was not expecting it and I just wanted to thank Jordan for that."

That’s a proper captain right there.

After Jota’s incredible performance against Atalanta, Jurgen Klopp has a big decision to make ahead of Liverpool’s huge clash at Manchester City on Sunday.

Does he keep Jota in the side or does he bring back Roberto Firmino?

But Klopp insisted it was a good problem to have.

"Good performances never give me a headache,” Klopp said.

"That was the decision tonight, it made sense to use the shape Diogo was in, and because of the way Atalanta plays and defends, it made sense that the skillset of Diogo helps.

"But the world is sometimes really in a bad place when the moment someone's shining, we speak immediately about another player who had played what feels like 500 games in a row.

"We would not even be in the Champions League if Bobby Firmino wasn't with us, and immediately I have to explain why he's not in the team. He will be in the team.

"For a lot of people in the world, if you asked them what makes Liverpool on Sunday special, they would say the way Bobby Firmino is playing.

"It's important for us that we have more than 11, and tonight Diogo used his shape in an incredible way and played a super, super game.

"But that says nothing about Bobby and has nothing to do with causing me headaches. I'm more than happy that the boys played like that tonight."
