Ex-player: Roberto FIRMINO

No way we’re getting that for Jota. I wouldn’t change the attack. It has still room for evolution. We have no idea what’s our best combination going into next season. It’s Salah + 4 players fighting for 2 positions.

Thing is Firmino isn’t staying, we aren’t getting that for Jota.

So the point is null.

Jota himself has come off a really bad injury, the lay off similar to DĂ­az if you think that DĂ­az was back in training and then went out again.

We going throw DĂ­az in the bin after 5 games if he is rubbish too?

I still believe in Jota being very useful for us, despite him not scoring for a year (in which he’s been also out a lot). We’ll know more once pre-season is over. Because now we have players returning, the team is still largely underperforming or too inconsistent. Means they don’t have the time nor the conditions to show their best versions. Do what we can do in the remaining 9 games, I’m certainly not expecting miracles from the likes of Jota and Diaz in this period. But the next serious target is pre-season. Then we go again from zero (or close to it, hopefully no big injuries until then) and we let them fight for game time (and some of them to even be here long term). The irony for Nunez now is that it seems his main competition might be Gakpo.

Will be happy for him if he can earn himself a move to Real to top off his career. We’ll see if he goes there or maybe somewhere else where he would be more of a first XI player.

Maybe they’ll think twice because of Mane, but Bayern should be all over Firmino.

Nah, I think Bayern need a more natural #9.

No.9 - give him the ball and he’ll score every time…

Disappointed to see those cunts get Bobby for free.

I thought his concern was minutes. Real doesn’t make much sense.

Lots of money to sit in the sun with a good chance of trophies too? Yeah can’t understand the mad brazilian.

It’s not the only thing. He goes on a free to a big club that wins things almost every season, gets his financial reward and also has enough football to enjoy himself. Benzema is 35, they don’t have anyone else apart from him. Rodrygo doing a job as the false #9 when he needs to. Between Benzema and a future Mbappe/Haaland/whoever, Bobby might see his chance there. He could go to Real and play a little less or go to, I don’t know, Inter (a side like that playing two up top could be good for him) and play a bit more.

It’s Bobby’s choice, just be happy for the lad if it’s what he wants. He’s earned that much from us.

I am. It’s Madrid I’m not happy for, the jammy thieving cunts

It would be sad to see him on the bench wherever he goes.

Like at Liverpool

Exactly. It’s sad enough to see him on the bench with us, let alone at a club who won’t appreciate him.
