Luis Diaz took the Premier League by surprise, but not anymore

Luis Diaz has become one of Liverpool's main references for this upcoming season. The “Guajiro” is already an important player for the team, a situation that has to be very clear to Jürgen Klopp, who will give all the responsibility to the Colombian.

What he has done in the previous season has propelled Premier League clubs to think about how to stop Luis Diaz when they face Liverpool. In the previous preseason match against Leipzig, the German team's attention to the Colombian was evident, and even so, they were unable to stop his skill.

This Friday, former English player and now journalist Paul Merson, said that for this season the work that Diaz will do in front of the attack will be much more complex. Clubs are already preparing to hinder his surprise attacks and, above all, to stop his speed.

The Colombian has set the bar very high and will have the obligation to maintain it. In view of this, Merson said: "Unlike last season, Diaz is on the radar this time," he clarified.

Diaz will be key in Liverpool’s season

He also emphasized how important he has been to Liverpool, but detailed that he has to keep it that way: "He has been a fantastic addition for Liverpool and should continue from where he left off last season".

For the moment, Liverpool are preparing to face the first official match of the season against Manchester City in the Community Shield final on July 30. Diaz will surely be one of Klopp's main cards to play in the match.
