In the League Cup match in the early morning of this morning, Chiesa Jr. started and sent two assists to help Liverpool defeat Southampton 2-1.

Chiesa's performance in this game was absolutely impressive. He made two passes and created four scoring opportunities, both of which were the most in this game. His two assists were once through his active steals, and the other time he chose to pass the ball when he stopped the ball in a silky way to face the goalkeeper.

Last summer, Chiesa joined Liverpool from Juventus for a transfer fee of 12 million euros. Although the transfer fee is not high, the players' high salary is still criticized by fans. After joining Liverpool, Chiesa experienced a long period of injury. After returning, Chiesa only received some sporadic playing time and performed mediocrely.

There were rumors this summer that Chiesa would leave Liverpool, but Liverpool eventually chose to keep him, and Chiesa Jr. also decided to prove himself at Liverpool.

In the first round of the new Premier League season, Chiesa played the role of a substitute surprise. He made a goal in the 82nd minute and scored a goal in the 88th minute to help Liverpool lead again. But Chiesa's substitute position has not changed. He played 4 times in five rounds of the Premier League this season, with a total duration of 47 minutes. In terms of registration for the Champions League, due to the quota restrictions, Liverpool had to choose to temporarily give up Chiesa.

But Chiesa's performance in this game may change Slot's mind. At the age of 27, he still has time to catch up with his former self.
