Injury update, contract talk and more ahead of Sunday’s Premier League game against Chelsea at Anfield…
On the injury front, the boss updated us on Alisson Becker…
“Alisson is for sure not with us in the upcoming weeks, that’s clear. So, that’s a blow for him and for us because I think he did really well this season and did so well for this club for so many years.
“Now the good thing is, and I said this many times, that Caoimhin did well for us in previous years and this season also, so we have a good replacement. But you always want all of your players available.
“Now we’ve got quite some issues from players coming back from the national teams, and we can only judge that perfectly today because today is the first time that they are all in and the first time that they are all training together again. So, let’s see after the session where everybody is.
“Macca missed one game, he played the second one. Kostas missed out in the first game against England so I can name them all but we’ve got a few issues going on and let’s wait and see where we are after today. [Wataru] Endo as well was also sick.”
