    Yes. Played against us the following season for Wolves in the EPL as well, scoring at Molineux. Also scored against us for Liverpool in the FA Cup a few seasons ago. RIP

    He was probably a starter in Liverpool’s strongest eleven while he was with them, very good at Wolves as well. Awful news and it sounds like it might have been a freak accident.

    RIP

    It's very sad when anyone loses thier life, but kids are getting killed and blown up in Ukraine and Palastine and there's no heart breaking posts all over message boards and soical media like this guy is getting. sad really.

    It's odd isn't it?

    I'm not saying the board is guilty of this but celebrity 'recreational grieving/mourning' become a thing after Di.

    In relation to Jota, awful for his parents to lose two kids in the same accident.

    I was thinking about this aspect myself. It's probably due to the familiarity that people have (even via the TV) of specific individuals as opposed to people who are unknown to us.

    It’s not really the thread to bring this topic into discussion. I doubt if there is a single member on this board who doesn’t feel sad and helpless when we hear of innocent children/adults getting killed daily in global wars.
    The reason Jota’s death has created a thread of its own, is the fact he is a well known footballer, who many of us on here, have seen play live, and this is after all a football MB.
    If my next door neighbour passed away, I’d be shocked and saddened. If a guy 6 streets away who I never knew died, it wouldn’t have the same impact on me.
    RIP Diogo.

    Agree with this. It's a football message board but doesn't mean no one cares about children dying in war.

    Very sad news. As someone whose brother died after a car accident in Spain, this particularly resonates with me. Anybody going well before their time is always a sad event, and some of the other posters are right about all the young people losing their lives as part of the conflicts taking place being just terrible.

    Very tragic news the parents must be inconsolable.RIP

    Re: Diogo Jota killed in car crash

    Sad news when anyone loses their life so young. Many people trying to make it about themselves on social media, but as said above, this isnt the thread to nitpick over grief junkies.

    RIP

    Re: Diogo Jota killed in car crash

    It's very sad and all that, I agree. But does there really need to be so much media coverage? There are 6 articles on the BBC front page alone for example. Surely it's only really Liverpool fans that this would appeal to. If it was a TNS or Kilmarnock player I doubt it would even make the front page.

    I'm not sure "appeals" is the right word. And yes of course the fact that he is famous is the reason that he gets more coverage. That's why there were more column inches about the queen's death than my nan.

    It only happened a few hours ago. Maybe if it's still dominating in three days time then it'll be worth complaining about
