    We rushed back Elyounoussi for the cup final and it set him back months, I’d rather we didn’t do the same with Jota even if it means we don’t see him again until after the winter break. Would be a huge blow if he does miss out right enough.

    This is an unfortunate lesson that the usual reactionary morons on this forum have hopefully learnt about the importance of needing to rotate and rest players, rather than the attitude of "if they are available then they should play" that we heard after the Leverkusen loss.

    This. Some people think it's a game of Fifa. Some absolute * on the bench though, so hopefully we'll see more rotation efter next window.

    I think we've already agreed terms with Jota and we're gonna announce it on Christmas day with a cringey video on TikTok or something.

    Something like Santa posting a Christmas card through Hoopy's door while he's sleeping. Then he wakes up and opens it and it says "Jota signs 4 year deal Merry Christmas".

    Meanwhile, Sky Sports News understands that Celtic are expected to trigger Jota's option-to-buy clause before the end of the season.

    The winger has impressed since moving from Portuguese club Benfica in the summer, scoring eight goals in all competitions so far.

    A fee of £6.5m was agreed in the summer with Celtic eager to take advantage.

    Postecoglou has confirmed he will be without the 22-year-old for "a few weeks" after he suffered a hamstring injury in their 1-0 win against Hearts.

    That decision must have been enforced by Ange punching a few board members.

    Jokes aside announcing that the day before the next game against the zombies would be great.

    Please make the huns game, if he doesn't that is quite a blow and another bit of fortune for the scum.
    With any luck we are very proactive pre Jan and get a couple in on the 1st ready for the 2nd

    Have faith, hopefully back for the huns. Sick of playing them with the likes of Lewis Morgan or Mikey Johnson up front.

    We've literally not had our strongest 11 available for years now. There's always someone pivotal missing. Especially for the games vs them.

    This time it's Jota who has been our best player for months now. It's a sickener.

    That is dreadful news both for him and for the team. he will be a massive loss to us for the final. Lets hope that he makes it back though for the last few league games before the break.

    Definitely a bummer..

    Hopefully he can get back for the 2nd, although looks unlikely..

    Will need some boy's like Abada to step up and Mikey to really hit form....that or getting the Japanese boy's in straight away..

    Won't happen now but even Boli as an option on left wing for game's to be rotated. Gives that width, energy and can press all game. Played on the wing for Vienna..

    Anyway, someone will have to step up..
