It’s an impact injury. It has nothing to do with Jota’s fitness levels.
If you want to blame someone, blame those Midgetland pricks for being too aggressive in a meaningless game.

We all expected a much weaker team, we saw how “well” it looked only when Koumetio came on. We would’ve easily lost that game. For some outside, it doesn’t matter. For some inside, it obviously matters. I understand. It’s not a FM game and we can’t just throw a bunch of kids out there. Like at Villa last season when we felt we had to make a decision.

Klopps to blame for Jotas injury! No one else! Nothing else!!!
Hoping and praying that for once we‘ll be lucky with injuries this season and it’s just a knock.

If I’m honest it seems like nothing more than Klopp said after the game and in the press conference.
Bar the fact he will miss the game, could do without a long term mind.
Can we do without the doom mongering for once.

Could be out for 2 months according to the Echo the report coming from Portugal. Hopefully this is nonsense.

@German Red. It’s only your opinion. You sound really angry. I don’t get the fume.
Jota got kicked.
Are the injuries that happen in training all on Klopp too and no one else?
It’s a professional contact sport. You need to wise up.

Blame Klopp. The Midgetland game was totally meaningless and he played too many senior players. In fact he played Mo for 90 mins… I mean wtf. Why take the risk at all and it’s come back to bite back. We could have lost to Midgetland and still qualify. Sometimes he just does things that aren’t logical. Now Diogo is out for a few months.

Yeh, this injury could have happened with anyone. The issue for me is that there was no need to expose any of our key players to the risk of injury for a meaningless game. It was like playing them in a friendly when we’ve been hit by injuries already and have a congested fixture list to deal with. Utterly pointless and needless chance to take.
I don’t buy the thing about the bubble either. Were Midtjylland players in the same bubble? Any bubble is immediately compromised when the game comes around anyway. That’s just another reason to shield your key players.

What Klopp said about the balance between youth and experience makes perfect sense to me. Jota hasn’t been over played. I don’t see a problem.
Eg: I think Rhys Williams learnt a lot more playing alongside Fabinho than alongside Billy.
The fume is ridiculous, stuff like ‘this is all on Klopp’ ‘Klopp can’ t say anything now about fixture congestion '‘He’ s hypocritical"
Wow, calm down people. It’s not apocalypse now.
I get bored hearing people scream. Is anyone else bored about this Webo guy by the way. Saw a couple of articles, 8th December will be remembered, I was so hurt and angry. Even Mbappe was proud.
Yeah a big deal was made that 14 mins into the game, a coach had to be sent off. When asked by the ref, who? He said the black guy. Am I missing something?
This is symptomatic of society in general. Someone makes a sexist comment (which is wrong, no bones about it), next minute the aggrieved person is getting paid thousands or sometimes hundreds of thousands of pounds. Now if this money was coming out of the pocket of the person who made the comment, you’d say serves him right. But often it doesn’t.
I watched Seville & Geftafe, a little León vs can’t remember (Mexican league) horrible to watch. Feigning injury, diving, fouling every 2 mins.
What I really hate is when a player pretends to be hurt, goes down, the ref waves play on cos he knows nothing happened but the player stays down, he’s thinking, it didn’t work, I didn’t con the ref but I can’t get up now, so I’m staying down for about a minute. I’ll get up, grimace, hobble a bit, then run around as if nothing has happened.
The lunatics are running the asylum.

Let’s make a few true statements before bringing legitimate criticism:
Klopp is brilliant and knows far more about the game and his players than anyone in here
He has won the Prem and CL with us, and he has more than earned the right to do what he thinks
Any player can get injured any time, including in training
Now the case for the other side:
The players are overworked
Klopp has been making the case quite forcefully, including over the five sub thing
When I saw the amount of top players on the pitch against Midtylland I was surprised
It was a chance to get some rest into them when it is going to be hard to come by
We couldn’t finish less than top
They couldn’t finish more than bottom
Classic dead rubber (pride, personal accolades and prize money notwithstanding)
So… if a player is injured in a game he wasn’t needed for, for all the reasons listed, then yes, I find fault with Klopp for that.
Still love him. But we shouldn’t have had big players out there for that one. And he undermined the case he has been making about the players being overplayed.
Hope it’s a minor knock and Jota will be fine. Like every red, waiting for more news in this.

Well, it is shite but we won the CL, SC, WB and the PL without him we will survive these two months. Luckily our injured midfielders are on the way or are back.
If only Thiago…

Unlucky, shame. I’m not blaming Klopp.
A little blow to lose him in the next 2 months with so many games coming up.
We’ll need anything we can get from the likes of Shaqiri, Ox (primarily a midfielder, but even though he had not great games as a forward, he remains an option), Minamino and Origi.
Maybe I could have just said this instead of going off on one
