Liverpool sign Jota for £45m

[bodge]

Come out of nowhere this one, good player.

[Bosscat]

My mate used to have a Jota ... A Laverda motorcycle and on a trip to wales it rusted in front of our eyes absolutely wicked to ride but a heap of deteriorating junk in the garage

[Bin Ont Turf]

I'm not sure how to respond. I wonder if Liverpool fans have threads on their forums when we sign a player?

Unlikely I'd say, because we don't sign anyone.

[Funkydrummer]

Quite frankly, I don't give a Jot.

Wolves are losing some vital players, first Doherty to Spurs, and now Jota to Liverpool, just shows that even the bigger clubs struggle to hold onto their star names when the mega clubs come calling, Leicester & Sheff Utd might suffer the same fate, if they continue to upset the applecart.

I don’t think Doherty was getting regular game time at the latter end of last season. And while Jota is a good player, that’s a massive fee and Fabio Silva is obviously seen as first team ready considering £35m outlay.

Bit of a falling out between Jota and Nuno apparently

[RammyClaret61]

Was our bid rejected?

Who is going to be left out at Liverpool?

No one yet, this thread has jumped the gun. All that's happened is the two clubs have agreed a deal.

You wouldn't normally expect any hitches but at this point the deal as been agreed only, in a seperate deal wolves have 1 incoming from the same buying club

Squad players like Brewster and Shaquri, will be moved on.

[ksrclaret]

Good signing for Liverpool, I think. He's a versatile sort who could play anywhere across their front 3.

Wolves are an odd one, though. They relied on about 14 players last season and they've just sold 2 of those to PL rivals, and they've brought in two 18 year olds as replacements it seems. Not that it affected them against Sheff Utd, but it will be interesting to note how they get on this season.

[GodIsADeeJay81]

Wolves' business model seems to be doing well.

Sigh cheap, sell for more and replace.
They've kept key players like Jimenez and the manager has signed a new deal also.

Would appear they've been watching how the big clubs do it.

[randomclaret2]

Takes Liverpools spending this summer over £80 million, despite recent concerns over their lack of activity. Its all relative...

[bodge]

The thread was created as the Liverpool Echo reported that he had signed not that a deal had been agreed.

They are offloading Origi to make room in the squad apparently.

[yorkyclaret]

Was our bid rejected?

They had to reject it, they couldn't find a big enough safe.

[LawsCanalJump]

A real quality player
Great business for Liverpool

[Bertiebeehead]

A helluva lota for Jota.

[Dyched]

Wait? No comments on this fee in relation to Tarkowski like we normally have.

If he’s worth £35m than Tarkowski is surely worth £27.50

Go on then, if Jota's worth £45m then Tarks is worth at least £30m

[bobinho]

£45m? He’s a decent player, but that’s really silly money.

[expoultryboy]

Are they going to cover him in wallpaper like i had to do at school ?
