RIP Diogo, very sad to see you go at 28.
YNWA.
1.) 03 Jul 2025 10:38:42
This is incredible and beyond tragic. May their souls RIP and may their families have the strength to cope with this calamity. ??????.
2.) 03 Jul 2025 10:38:44
Terribly sad and shocking news. Just feeling numb. Thoughts and prayers with his family, Portugal, LFC and all their supporters ? ❤️ ⚽️.
YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE.
3.) 03 Jul 2025 10:55:05
Absolutely shocking news - mortified! Only married a few weeks ago and leaves a wife and three beautiful children! The winning goal in the 4-3 against Spurs will live long in the memory! RIP our Number 20!??.
4.) 03 Jul 2025 10:55:08
Sincere condolences! Life is so transient and unpredictable. Spending time with love ones comes first.
With a life passing away, life perspective is put in order.
Peace and comfort with family of Jota.
5.) 03 Jul 2025 10:57:20
I have no words just tremendous sadness.
Thoughts and prayers are with the family.
RIP and God Bless
YNWA.
6.) 03 Jul 2025 10:58:37
He was a genuinely good person, a superb professional, won the lot with us, never on the front page, when he got injured he just put the work in and came back. He would do a job anywhere on the pitch when asked and contributed hugely to the successes we have had since we signed him.
A massive loss to football, but more so to his young family.
Rest in peace Diogo and Andre.
7.) 03 Jul 2025 11:01:39
It is so shockingly sad. depressing.
Life is so fragile, isn't it.
RIP.
8.) 03 Jul 2025 11:10:15
so sad. YNWA.
9.) 03 Jul 2025 11:29:46
I'm still in disbelief that he's no longer with us. YNWA Jota.
10.) 03 Jul 2025 11:41:48
Devastating news. Gone far too soon.
11.) 03 Jul 2025 11:47:58
RIP Diogo, better than figo don't ya know. YNWA.
12.) 03 Jul 2025 12:03:10
Lost for words. My prayers are with him, his family and the club as they grieve this tragedy. RIP.
13.) 03 Jul 2025 12:20:58
Sincerest condolences to his family and friends.
14.) 03 Jul 2025 12:33:10
I’m seeing it everywhere but I still can’t believe it’s happened.
I’m not a crier but I shed a tear when they showed him laughing with Chiesa and lifting the trophy only a month ago.
Life is so, so fragile we shouldn’t take anything for granted. Hold your loved ones close and be kind to all others. You never know when your time is up.
Rest in peace Diogo, you were a top player and an even better man. Today the world is a worse place because you are not in it. Heartfelt condolences to his friends and family and all football fans across the world. This has really knocked me for six and I’m sure it has with countless others too.
Be there for each other and always remember Diogo Jota fondly. Sing his song at the top of your lungs because he is one of us and will always be remembered and celebrated.
YNWA.
15.) 03 Jul 2025 12:36:37
Blessings to both of the boys relatives, I am so sorry for your losses. Diogo's song will be ringing around stadiums for years to come.
16.) 03 Jul 2025 12:53:11
Would like to see them retire the number 20.
If his family gives their blessing (when the time is right to ask), it would be good to see a memorial kept at Anfield for him so that he is forever with us.
YNWA.
17.) 03 Jul 2025 12:57:42
I'm completely shocked. Devastated for his wife and 3 kids.
18.) 03 Jul 2025 13:24:22
Such a shame, puts life in perspective. Rest in Peace Diogo.
I saw a great suggestion in a comment on a video i was watching that the number 20 jersey should be retired at Liverpool. We signed him in 2020, he won number 20 with us and wore the number 20 shirt
Would be a fitting tribute to a player that gave everything.
19.) 03 Jul 2025 13:55:16
RIP Diogo YNWA.
20.) 03 Jul 2025 14:15:30
So so sad. Hard to put into words the shock and sadness. RIP and prayers with his family.
21.) 03 Jul 2025 14:23:18
This is terrible news. So tragic, a successful athlete in their prime leaves behind a wife and 3 children, and a mother loses her two sons. Incomprehensible. My heart goes out to them, so utterly devastating.
22.) 03 Jul 2025 16:21:30
Heartbreaking shocking news. Rest in peace diogo and your brother forever in our hearts.
23.) 03 Jul 2025 17:25:51
Hope everyone keeping their chins up. I like to think of Diogo as a legend who got to live out his dream at the best club in the world. I want to celebrate his success in life rather than his untimely passing. May his legend live on, I know it will because he will always be remembered and his family will always be supported by this great club and it’s amazing fans. YNWA.
24.) 03 Jul 2025 17:51:45
Never cried over any sportsman. But today, at 66yrs old, i bawlled like a baby RIP champ.
25.) 03 Jul 2025 18:10:33
So sad to hear the news about Diogo and his brother Andre. Away on holiday with the 3 kids and we all shed a little tear when I told them. He seemed like a really good guy both on and off the pitch.
Devastated for his wife Rute and his 3 gorgeous kids. Hard to believe they only got married 11 days ago. It’s a no brainer for me to retire the number 20 jersey and I’m sure the club will do the classy thing as usual.
Rest easy Diogo and Andre or as we’d say in Ireland ‘At dheis De go raibh a an am dilis’ YNWA ❤️.
26.) 03 Jul 2025 19:08:57
I haven't cried over any footballer, until today. 62 yrs old, Red all my life. He wore the number 20 oh his name is DIOGO. May his family never walk alone.
27.) 03 Jul 2025 20:21:10
So very very sad that two young men’s life’s have been tragically taken my thoughts are with his family his poor parents his wife and children.
You’ll never be forgotten Diogo you’ll always be a red and you’ll never walk alone.
28.) 03 Jul 2025 20:28:54
StevieP62, crying is nothing to be ashamed of either. I was in a zoom meeting at work and a friend messaged me the bad news and had to turn my camera off as I could feel myself welling up. It’s hard not to be upset and devastated that someone who brought so much joy to us is suddenly gone and way before their time. I’d be surprised if anyone on these pages or in the fanbase didn’t.
29.) 03 Jul 2025 22:25:45
I wasn’t born for Hillsborough so I’ll never know what it felt like at the time, although I’ve lived through the time of fighting for justice and seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. On this occasion this is the worst I’ve ever felt regarding football and the club. A man who has no idea who I am but gave so many fond memories including the first goal of a title winning season. I hope he has an eternal resting place in Shanks/ Paisley 11 up there with the knowledge of how one of his goals changed a whole day, week, month, year, life for some people, and his family are forever looked after especially in this moment. YNWA Diogo.
30.) 04 Jul 2025 06:49:25
RIP Diogo Jota YNWA.
31.) 04 Jul 2025 08:14:17
Still hasn't sunk in about Diogo and his brother. A truly awful tragedy for the family, losing your two only children in a single accident.
32.) 04 Jul 2025 11:31:49
Away at the moment camping with bad reception but just seeing the news. I can't believe it, lost for words. Devastated for the wife and 3 kids he leaves behind and doesn't get to see grow into adults. I pray for peace over them.
33.) 04 Jul 2025 22:17:27
This is just devastating and sad beyond words. Second day I've woke up just refusing to believe this terrible news. The video the club released was just perfect and I don't think anyone could watch that without the tears flowing.
World literally at his feet and now he's gone. Prayers, love and thoughts with his family and friends. I know the club and fans alike will find many incredible ways to honour him. My hope is that will bring his loved ones comfort in this terrible loss for us all and especially them. Heartbreaking for us all.
Rest in peace Diogo with your beloved brother Andre. God bless you both and your families.

No way Pep Ljinders is joining as city's assistant manager ?.
1.) 30 May 2025 20:30:18
I find that so strange but then again
The assistant coach here was at Everton right?
Still bizarre tho.
2.) 30 May 2025 20:30:54
Pep is going to find more evidence to add to the 115.
3.) 30 May 2025 21:01:30
Why so weird? He's looking for a job. They want to give him a job and pay him money.
I worked at Lidl. Aldi offered me 59p an hour more. I went there. I have no loyalty to an employer.
4.) 30 May 2025 21:15:12
Interesting that he has stepped out of management again, as he did after his first stint.
Im not sure he will ever be a number 1.
5.) 30 May 2025 22:05:39
Nah he’s definitely a number 2 @Vango.
Sorry that wasn’t called for but I couldn’t stop myself.
6.) 30 May 2025 23:44:24
Whats the concern? Especially on a day when we just signed an ex-Man City player.
7.) 31 May 2025 07:54:55
@coolerThanTheFonz Did you work in the chilled aisle section? ?.
04 Jan 2025 22:38:25
Marcelo Pitaluga is set to return back to Fluminense. His loan spells have not gone to plan and looks like Liverpool are ready to offload him.
1.) 05 Jan 2025 05:05:13
Wishing him luck back home.
2.) 05 Jan 2025 12:33:16
Left also with a 40% sell on clause, courtesy of Fabrizio Romano.
3.) 06 Jan 2025 13:30:15
Very decent of Romano to ensure that a 40% sell on clause was uncluded in the deal.
17 May 2024 09:10:52
Confirmed that Matip is leaving the club. Sad to see him leave but it is the right time.
Joel will always be a Liverpool legend, part of the journey where we won every trophy. YNWA Joel.
1.) 17 May 2024 10:27:55
He was a good player for the team, legend is a a bit strong imo.
2.) 17 May 2024 10:41:57
At his very best he was decent. Thank you and goodbye
Up the pool.
3.) 17 May 2024 12:19:34
For his output, he earned way too much money from the club seemed to have the life of Riley and only play if he could be bothered. Decent player when he felt like it.
4.) 17 May 2024 13:12:15
He was a good player on his day but will always be remembered for his injuries. His wages are huge so good to get him off the books I guess.
5.) 17 May 2024 13:29:39
Good player for me, only issues were the injurys! Best of luck Joel.
6.) 17 May 2024 14:50:39
MK mentioned the term "cult hero" on the other page and I agree that it suits Matip better than "legend". A good player on his day and definitely gave his all for us throughout his time here even though it was blighted by injuries. Definitely one of the best free transfers we have ever made, almost up there with Milner.
7.) 17 May 2024 15:08:09
Was a good but not great player. Injured too often unfortunately. A good servant.
8.) 17 May 2024 16:01:07
Cult hero fits better than legend. It's more what I meant. There are only about 5 actual legends for me at Liverpool in the history of the team.
9.) 17 May 2024 16:25:05
For me he was best cb at the club rated him higher than virg . Reminded me of Hansen sometimes the way he would carry the ball out from the back. Also I Think the wheels wouldn’t have fell off if he had not got injured this season. He had an assist in the champions league final and did he also get the equaliser v city in charity shied? He is up there for me and moaning about wages, what’s that about? He earned the lucrative contract winning trophies. Love the guy gave me some great moments, brilliant player for us when he was available good luck Joel lad YNWA.
10.) 17 May 2024 16:47:40
Good when fit but made of glass.
11.) 17 May 2024 17:19:16
Good player, did his bit, pity he was made of crisps. Good free transfer whichever way you put it.
12.) 17 May 2024 18:39:01
Best wishes to him. Wasn't he a regular for our prem win season? ⚽️✌.
13.) 18 May 2024 09:39:35
VVD refers to him as a legend…good enough for me.
14.) 18 May 2024 10:50:18
Matip was superb. When fit he was an outstanding player. People who say things like “when he felt like it” are absolute whoppers.
Genuinely excellent. For large periods of his time he was as good as if not better than the best centre half in the world. You lot need a word with yourselves.
15.) 18 May 2024 12:31:53
His wages were only huge because we got him on a free transfer. Put the whole pacakage together and factor in all his injuries but also all the trophies, it was still a very worthwhile signing.
16.) 19 May 2024 01:30:22
"Better than the best centre half in the world"? That makes no sense lol
I'm only mucking about and I know what you mean. This possession style works better with a mario type in the team that can play out from the back. A bit lacking for pave when defending but mostly a very solid player. Shame he had a permanent twisted sock though!
27 Feb 2024 17:38:49
Rumours going round from De Telegraaf that Ajax are talking to Ljinders over the managerial position for next season.
1.) 27 Feb 2024 18:35:17
Good luck to him.
I know he’s not everyone’s cup of tea but he’s been an able right hand man to Klopp and they seem to work together well.
2.) 27 Feb 2024 18:37:42
Good, hope he does well. Obviously a man Jurgen respects.
3.) 27 Feb 2024 21:39:57
Am sure he can do a good job there even seven hag did ok there.
4.) 28 Feb 2024 10:17:50
Good luck to him. I hope he does well and the Dutch league is ready for the inverted full-back!
5.) 28 Feb 2024 18:45:17
Brummyred is absolutely right - we’re too exposed with Trent at right back and Robbo at left back. With the pair of them in team we’ll never win anything, except of course:
- the Premier League
- the Champions League
- the European Super Cup
- the World Club Championship
- the FA Cup
- the Carabao Cup
- the Charity Shield.

I'm very late on this one but I didn't realise Pako Ayesteran is Villas assistant to Unai Emery. Was great at Liverpool and it felt like we lost a lot under Rafas reign when Pako left.
1.) 26 Jan 2025 21:42:08
To add to barrys post- if memory serves his friendship with jose was the reason he and rafa fell out. We were never the same after.
2.) 26 Jan 2025 22:24:25
He was a flop from memory at Maccabi Tel Aviv.
3.) 26 Jan 2025 22:54:33
OP, yeah I already seen him on Villa's bench since last season.
07 Jul 2025 19:20:18
Does anyone actually want to go and be managed by Vincent Kompany?
03 Jul 2025 12:53:11
Would like to see them retire the number 20.
If his family gives their blessing (when the time is right to ask), it would be good to see a memorial kept at Anfield for him so that he is forever with us.
YNWA.
13 Jun 2025 11:19:19
I can hear Ed002 saying with regards to finances "this is not how it works"
18 Apr 2025 00:18:40
If we could have the contracts signed earlier and bring certainty to the club, of course you would take it.
I don't suspect anything regarding when it was done because there is no point. That is all heresay with no proof so it is not even worth mentioning.
17 Apr 2025 13:50:43
Glad they have signed but come on, it should not have taken to the point of having 2.5 months left on the contract.
Just glad it is finally done so I'll stop moaning.
26 Jun 2025 19:45:16
Ozan Kabak is a throwback! Dear oh dear even Ben Davies was better than him and he never kicked a ball.
22 Jun 2025 10:07:12
We tried playing Gakpo CF in the past I believe and it didn't really work. He wasn't suited to it.
20 Jun 2025 09:32:00
Cheers for passing on MaCarra. Even if he does not, we appreciate you making this window fun to follow!
13 Jun 2025 13:07:35
On that Ed001, do you think we have any or many players who are overpaid or underpaid in your opinion? Appreciate its subjective based on circumstance.
{Ed001's Note - you would have to out Chiesa in the overpaid section, for now anyway.}
10 Jun 2025 14:13:58
Maybe it is my recency bias but what about Alison Ed001 in terms of best players we have had? He is the best keeper I have ever seen and I think GK is possibly the most important position for a successful team (i say possibly since it is a team sport at the end of the day) .
With how footy is though it is hard for keepers to get the glory as much as the attackers.
{Ed001's Note - good shout that one he would defo be in the discussion too.}
