REUTERS: Back from a knee injury, Liverpool forward Diogo Jota said he hoped to inject confidence and freshness into the Premier League champions during a difficult spell for the club. Jota made an immediate impact when he joined Liverpool from Wolverhampton Wanderers in September, scoring nine goals in 17 games before injuring his knee in a Champions League match against Midtjylland on Dec. 9. The 24-year-old was a second-half substitute in Thursday's 1-0 loss to Chelsea and said he was determined to help his seventh-placed team in the remainder of the season. "Even last season everyone was talking about the fortress ... Obviously the fans were a big help to maintain that, and we've lost that," Jota added. "But it's still our home and we need to make the opponents feel like they can't win games there.
