Chiesa Jr.: I am eager to stay in the team to compete and want to repay the team and fans with better performance

Liverpool striker Chiesa Jr. was interviewed by the media this week. He had previously lost to Liverpool's Champions League roster. In the mid-week League Cup match, he gave two assists to help the team beat Southampton 2-1.

"Last season was really difficult. I think my level was not up to the expectations of the coach, but I understand his choice. This year, the situation is different. My physical and mental state is much better. The coach saw this and gave me more opportunities."

"I am very happy to make some contributions in the Premier League. This is exactly what Liverpool expects for every player, and what the coach and all other teammates expect. If you play for Liverpool, you must have the ability to change the game. At the moment, I am very happy, but in the future I still need to train hard to get more opportunities. I play for a top club, which may be among the top three in the world. This is Liverpool, and they will of course sign top players, and the competition is naturally very fierce.

"If I don't want to face the competition, I can go to other teams. But I just want to compete. I want to play here, and I think at the end of the day, competition can help you become a better player. The coach gave me a chance in the first four games and I think I've proven that I can help the team. ”

Chiesa Jr. scored a key goal in the first round of the season against Bournemouth, and this goal further deepened his connection with the fans. Fans now sang exclusive songs for him in every game, and they were moved by Chiesa's endless enthusiasm. Chiesa Jr., 27, sometimes feels that he is not worthy of such a sought after, which also made him realize that he must perform well in the game in order to live up to the support he has received. Whether facing Slot, teammates or fans, Chiesa hopes to win everyone's recognition.

"I have felt this way since last year - I need to repay them. I have indeed made some contributions in these games this year, but I hope I can continue to do so. The support they gave me in every game was great. I like the song I sang for me! This song is awesome. But I can do more for them. This support is incredible. The coach told me what he thought and why he made those decisions. Of course, I feel very sorry for not being able to enter the Champions League roster, because participating in the Champions League is the dream of every player. I just said to the coach at that time, ‘Okay, no problem. I will continue to train hard and strive for opportunities in the League Cup and Premier League. ’I am a professional player and it is amazing to be able to play for Liverpool. I am very happy and will continue along this path. ”

Talking about his teammate Ekitic, who was suspended and missed the away game against Crystal Palace, Chiesa said: "His approach at that time was a bit naive, it was really naive. We need him, he is a great player. He has proven himself here, like Isaac, who always stands up whenever we need a goal. I regret him, but he is still young and has room for improvement. Next time he encounters a similar situation, he must think twice before acting. ”
