Liverpool's problems with Diogo Jota are increasingly difficult to contend with and it will soon come to a head.
Liverpool face Brighton later today and who starts up top? It certainly feels as though Darwin Nunez is in line for the role - much as he did in the last EFL Cup round against West Ham United.
Only, Nunez had an intense game against Arsenal at the weekend. And he had one against RB Leipzig a few days before that.
He's also expected to start against Brighton at the weekend in the Premier League clash. And we imagine he'll be the striker against Bayer Leverkusen and Aston Villa ahead of the international break.
It's a lot of football for any player, let alone in a role as intensive as the centre forward in Arne Slot's high press. And that's why Liverpool will be forced into a decision on Diogo Jota before long.
