The Liverpool Club Thread. **No Spoilers**

Alissons dad has passed away after drowning in a dam close to his home.

Bloody hell that's awful.

 

[robfosters]

Tragic news.

Gonna be hard For Alisson if he can’t get back to Brazil.

 

[fez]

Someone has cursed Liverpool this season. Poor guy

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Hope Alisson's allowed to travel back home, guy deserves a break and time out of the spotlight.

Need to wrap Kelleher up in cotton wall and preserve him in some vinegar until Alisson's back.

That's awful news.

 

[Mark1989]

Terrible news, as above hope they let him leave UK for funeral and gets some time off to try process it all

Surprised it hasn't been mentioned but it sounds like Henderson's now out for the season as well.

Reckoned perhaps as long as 12 weeks. I'm struggling to think of a time when we've had this many long term injuries. Mind you we've had two or three seasons without any major injuries at all across the whole team so statistically it was bound to catch up with us.

 

[omnomnom]

Henderson out for 6 - 8 weeks however knowing us thats 6 months.

Time for two cbs at cb.

Tbh we should have been playing Nat Philips anyway instead of Hendo, we’ve definitely missed him in the centre.

Looks all but certain that our 2nd leg vs Leipzig will be played in Budapest due to Leipzig having to quarantine if they travel to the UK.

You can see it now, we're going to lose 3-1 and go out on away goals having played both games in the exact same neutral stadium.

Was reading yesterday that Salah's in the provisional Egyptian squad for the Olympics and he could miss the start of the season for us. Add the ACON in January and we could end up losing him for a couple of months.

 

[BaZ87]

He'd be injured by then anyway.

 

[omnomnom]

Hopefully with Jota we are ok. I can see Elliot staying aswell given how well hes done at Blackburn.

How's that work when City can play Monchengladbach at Etihad?

Germany have different states - the state Leipzig are in requires them to quarantine but where Monchengladbach are doesn't.

 

[BaZ87]

Kabak got injured vs Chelsea and unlikely to play at the weekend It's just getting silly now.

It can't be long before we're lining up with Fabinho and Wijnaldum at CB with Firmino as our holding midfielder.

At this point I'd be tempted to give the entire first team squad a few weeks off to rest and recover and just play the kids for a few weeks

 

[FMF]

Wonder if Robertson could play at CB kind of like how Azpilicueta has done for Chelsea.

 

[MissChief]

Could Davies actually be fit? Phillips has played well so it’ll likely be him and Fab.
