The OFFICIAL Liverpool FC thread - Arne to Slot right in?

Has Liverpool changed their training regime? The injuries they are picking up can't be that unlucky

Somethings up, no way should we be getting that many injuries

[Captain Obvious]

Was never a better chance for Everton to end that Derby hoodoo. As for Liverpool at least the Champions league is still there to win.

There is not a hope in hell of Liverpool winning the Champions League on their current form (with Henderson now out for a spell too).

I wouldn't even be confident yet of them seeing through their current tie, despite the two goal lead Leipzig have gifted them.

And there's a hell of a lot better out there than Leipzig.

[SHEEDY]

Just checking in lads. Everyone OK?

Somebody is confident of europa league

Is VVD still injured ? It wasn't mentioned on SKY tonight's. Well not much just maybe 10/15 times ?

I'm afraid you'll have to direct that complaint to Sky Sports, nothing to do with Liverpool FC.

Thanks, will do. But this thread is directly run by LFC OK?

Well it's not ran by Sky Sports? Unless I missed the memo!

The only positive out of that game is that the legbreakers fc didn't manage to mow down any more Liverpool players tonight.  You see guys, you can actually beat Liverpool by sticking to the football.

Liverpool have been in a tailspin for weeks now.  Seems the only thing now is to get to the end of the season and regroup.  The group have taken too many hits this season, with Henderson being another addition to the list.  The problem with Liverpool's injuries is the longevity of them.

I would disagree and say the issue is that Klopp didnt build a squad.

Granted the high volume of injuries hurt but any replacements wouldnt be close to starting for any other top 8 side

To be fair, there was just enough cover in most positions. The problem is when you have a Tsunami of injuries in a specific area of the pitch and you are losing one of the best players in the world in that position. You are going to be in trouble.

Filling this gap with a short term fix is not easy. Quality center half are not plentiful, are not cheap and are not going to go to a club where there are 3 other CH's waiting to come back and take your first team position.

Every team needs a John O'Shea!

Every team needs a John O'Shea!

Or a James Milner to fill gaps when you have injuries.

Agreed on both players. Grunts, win ball and give it to the 'players' they know their expectations and work on their strengths. The Neville brothers managed that also.
