Ed01, what's the feeling on Jota's future at the club? For me, all of our front players bring a different skill set and threat, and Jota certainly has popped up with some invaluable goals over the years.
I would love him to get a run of games and stay fit but I'm super skeptical going forwards. I was reading he's missed 66 games in the last 2 1/ 2 seasons so for me I'd take a decent offer for him in the summer.
{Ed001's Note - there has been a search for replacements for him ongoing, so clearly the feeling is that his injuries are not going to get any less.}

Is there any interest in Jota ed001? All very well saying sell him but does anyone want to buy a striker with a pretty dodgy injury record?
{Ed001's Note - a little bit, from the continent.}

Ed001 Are they still looking at replacing Darwin as well?
Looking from outside to in it looks like we could be going from what is a pretty settled squad from the Klopp to Slot transition to an overhaul.
Salah, Virg, Trent, Konate, Diaz, Mac, Harvey, Endo, Chiesa, Darwin and Jota all in different situations of being linked one way or another with moves away.
{Ed001's Note - if the right offer comes in, then Darwin would be sold too. But it would need to be enough to fund the replacement totally - transfer fee and wages.}

Ed01, you're right cos those injuries will not stop the older Jota gets as he will be 29 already this year, I think. Also, I don't know about you but I don't see both Darwin and Jota being sold cos IMO, that would mean we need two replacements (except they deem Danns is ready as a real option/ backup hence one replacement) and that could be too much to do in one window. What say you, sir?
And lastly based on what you said, it seems like Jota is the first one they are looking to really move on for obv. reasons whereas for Darwin, it will depend on the right offer esp. cos he has 3 years left on his deal hence if that doesn't happen, the club may have to keep him. Is that a fair assemssment? Cheers, mate.
{Ed001's Note - yeah that seems fair, though neither is seen as a long term fit.}

Didn’t Jota just buy a house in Liverpool? £4m I heard?
That would suggest he thinks he’s going nowhere.
{Ed001's Note - he can afford it mate. He gets a big sponsorship due to his EA affiliation as they like having a real footballer as a top end player of their game. I actually think he is going to end up settling in Liverpool when he retires as he seems very settled.}

Thanks for the response. I can agree that neither is seen as the long term solution. I just think that should Jota leave, I do not see the club just offloading Darwin below whatever evaluation they have for him due to the 3 years left on his deal so in that scenario, Darwin could be kept and then offloaded the summer after. Well, we shall see.

A move to Moyesy's Everton, perhaps?
I suppose the weather in Northwest England suits his video game hobby better than sunny Portugal.

His £4 million house is an investment. It'll be worth about £6 million in 4 months the way house prices are on Merseyside.

Great news Salah! Let's hope it's done.
04 Apr 2025 19:08:16
I think we can replace Nunez and Jota with one incoming. I'm hoping Danns is able to step up. Eds or anyone know how he's doing on loan?
01 Apr 2025 21:08:28
Well I enjoy reading Victor's scouting reports. No comment until I've seen that.
{Ed025's Note - i think the report will contain "hes crap" RF.. :)
01 Apr 2025 21:07:13
I'm all for it. Can't be much worse than Jota of late.
27 Feb 2025 19:22:03
No thanks.

I think the product on the pitch has deteriorated so much too. This possession based game is not for me. Throw in the blatant cheating and inept and possible corrupt refereeing and the game is just such a hard watch now. The arts of attacking and particularly defending are lost. Loving seeing us winning number 20 but I'd rather play or watch golf now that watch the PL.
04 Apr 2025 08:16:51
Watch a game from 20 years ago. Refs are much less noticeable and the games much more free flowing. Players actually trying to play football rather than con the refs.
04 Apr 2025 08:14:31
I don't get how u can be booked after VAR overturned a goal for a foul (Spurs goal at Chelsea tonight) but a second yellow (Jota at Spurs last season) can't be overturned by VAR if it's clearly and obviously wrong.
But I'm w Ed25 in that the game has gone totally soft and the players make it impossible for the refs. Hard to be consistent when it's Keystone Cops level of falling about pretending to be injured or fouled. VAR has made it 10 times worse.

Huijsen is Madrid bound it would seem. Kerkez more realistic it would seem.

Davey, Isak has played 25 times this season and 30 last season. 22 the year before. His record is definitely better than I thought too. I'd be wiling to take a punt on him for sure.
