You could do with a TAN arm around u today…I think we’re all rocked to the core…but perhaps it has felt raw today for you…let’s hope sticking together get’s us thru this…
When I was a kid, my father told me the story of a young, legendary striker of Partizan Belgrade named Dragan Mance, who died in a car accident after supposedly oversleeping and hurrying to get to training on time.
I talked to my father earlier today and he was heartbroken over Jota’s death and all the events that led up to it, and we remembered Mance as well. There are things, events… People you can never get over. My father still remembers Mance, forty years later. I have no doubt that Diogo will be remembered in forty years.
Diogo, I’m so sorry for all the criticism I levelled at you over the last few months. I had no idea you were playing with a serious injury, one that set off this chain of sad events. I feel like a rock is pressing down my soul right now.
I can’t believe it ended like this. A part of me spent the day thinking whether you’d have still been alive if you hadn’t signed for Liverpool. There’s something both utterly beautiful and devastatingly tragic about our club.
A legendary poet and ruler of Montenegro once wrote that “you can’t take a glass of honey without taking a glass of bile”. God knows I’ve taken a lot of bile in my 20+ years of supporting Liverpool but all of it combined isn’t as bitter as even one drop of the serving we got today. I can’t believe he’s gone. I hope his family can find strength one day after losing him and his brother. May God grant them eternal bliss and peace.
this seems to fast…
It’s probably the first time most of our players have lost a close friend. I lost my best mate in my 20s and their posts bring it all back. They will be grieving for some time, especially when everything around the training ground reminds them of him
Thanks for posting, nj.
