We haven’t sold any of our best players.Against Stoke Jota was just the player we needed to open them up. Now what? Anyone who thinks we have a brilliant replacement coming in is deluded imv. The club are sending out a very clear signal when he goes and mark my words Neves will be next. Once you start selling your best players its downhill all the way.
Jota finds himself as 4th choice wide forward. 2nd choice centre forward. I love the guy but I'd assume plans are afoot if he's on his way.I'd choose Neto and Podence over Jota in my 11 tbh
Maybe we are selling to fund the purchase of Semedo?
This take is thrown towards Jota every time we lose and he doesn't play I swear. It's not May 2019 anymore, whenever he comes on he's pedestrian and would likely have just made the result all the more frustrating when he goes on one of his spectacular runs but just ends up booting the ball directly at the opposition keeper, even if he was available to Nuno I honesty don't think he's done enough to start ahead of the likes of Neto and Podence, and that says it all. He's a winger who got 1 assist in a hell of a lot of Premier League starts last season, I really do wonder how many disappointing displays it's going to take for people on this forum to snap back to reality.Against Stoke Jota was just the player we needed to open them up.

Neves hasn’t shone in the PL so far.
Expected to be more then 35m...that'll do.
If you can keep your head while all ......
Got to be at least 35m.
We Have left ourselves open to this now by selling Doc for £15m, gone from a non selling club to one that is if these Jota rumours are true. Not happy to seem him go. Depth?You cannot legislate against a top club coming in for a player and the player wanting the move, it happens to all clubs and had nothing to do with lack of ambition.
What's happened to Pepé?I have this crap feeling that, if we do let him go, he won't necessarily be replaced and our forward options would be Jimenez, Fabio, Neto, Podence & Adama.
All good options, still don't want him to leave though.
Can someone point me in the direction of where it says we’ve sold him and at what price?
People are getting ahead of themselves, I’m not saying he’s staying and we’ll turn down the offer, but everything I’ve seen says they are interested.
If he goes, it will be because Nuno and the club are happy to do the deal. All week it’s been about the new cycle, and previously we’ve been guilty of holding on to players for sentimental reasons. That doesn’t seem to be the case now.
I’d be gutted if he goes and will expect the club to bring in a suitable replacement (which people will have arguments and reservations about) but in some ways I do appreciate the fact that we aren’t holding onto players if we feel we/they can’t improve us.
Neto and Podence have both played well in Jota's position and although on his day Jota can be devastating he is not "on his day" too often; not only that but his progress seemed to well and truly stall last season. I therefore do not think he will be leaving a massive hole if he goes.. So long as we are getting a decent fee (like £35m) I am OK with this.Then how would we fill the hole left by Jota. We would only have 1 left forward if he goes.
Gutted if he goes but I think this one has been on the cards a while. Mixed form last season and Podence signing. He's been excellent overall for us but can't begrudge him a move to the champions.
Puts the pressure on Podence and Neto to score more goals for sure.
Fabio Silva I’d guess or another one coming in.Then how would we fill the hole left by Jota. We would only have 1 left forward if he goes.
I’ll drive my missus to Liverpool myself mate. Keep Diogo!I still want to go to his house and put his windows through. It’s like breaking up with my mrs but way worse.
Come on mate there’s no need to keep dragging Adama into it especially if it’s Jota pushing for a move.If thats true Adama must have the sword of damocles above his head. Neto scored as many as he did last season IIRC.
