Liverpool have had a terrible time with injuries this season. Jürgen Klopp has seen more than a dozen players discarded for extended periods. The crisis has made the boss dependent on the depth of the team. Diogo Jota’s injury shows why Liverpool signing Patson Daka would make sense.
Diogo Jota injured blow
When will our bad luck end?
Liverpool took on FC Midtjylland in the middle of the week and a disappointing game has led to further disappointment in the aftermath.
Diogo Jota injured his knee in the match and, according to Record in Portugal, he could miss up to two months from the blow.
If the report is accurate, the Portuguese forward could miss up to 13 games due to injury.

More depth is needed
Liverpool need more quality up front.
In the minute Diogo Jota was the only serious cover for the three forwards.
Whenever Divock Origi has entered the front line this season, it has disappointed.
Given the intense roster of matches and the intense brand of football the Reds play, Jürgen Klopp needs to be able to rest the players and at the same time be able to trust his substitutes.
Liverpool should move for Patson Daka
During the summer, Liverpool were linked with a move by Patson Daka.
The 22-year-old Zambian has six goals in six league games this season, in addition to three assists.
He scored an impressive double against Liverpool in the preseason and from then on, Kopites debated whether he would add anything to the squad.
The Daily Mail believes the young man is available at £ 20 million.
For that amount of money, it would be a steal to back the front line.
He’s young enough to thrive with sporadic appearances and would fit the style of play perfectly having come from the Red Bull Salzburg setup.
Most importantly, it would improve our current depth.
