Gomez back in training next week.

original source is Maddock, not sure how reliable he is with us.

No other journalists reporting this.

The Gomez one is a worry

He did it on December 5th so Feb is basically 2 months

Welshred explained how it could only ever have been two months on the injury thread so no worries. The 6 weeks statement from the club was strange.

Nothing wrong with that. This is 2019 you know ;)

Seriously, it might be frustrating that some players have chosen to move on but it does them credit that they wanted to proceed their careers by playing regularly, when they could so easily have sat around on the bench

I disagree with loaning out Clyne and not having a 5th central defender cos the whole point of having a good squad is to rest the likes of Milner, Fabinho or Wijnaldum, not playing them out of position at the back when we get inevitable injuries. You can say the model is going to work fine, yes but at the cost of throwing away the FA Cup again. It seems every January Klopp is happy to let go of fringe players. Why not keep them and have a real go at the FA Cup? Clyne was sold before the game.

Now if Klopp rated Ki Jana and Camacho enough that'd be a different story but I believe he would rather play the others out of position than rest them.

For the rest of my time on earth I’ll never understand the Clyne decision. From either side

Insanity

Clyne is a solid but average fullback, truth be told. He offers very little going forward, which is a huge issue for a fullback playing under Klopp. Given his superior attacking attributes, I'd argue Milner is the better pick anyway. I'll concede Clyne is possibly the better pure defender. In addition to that you get Mliner's experience and influence on the field, which Klopp has alluded too.

That said, what do we actually gain by loaning him out? The financials can't be that attractive? Possibility that he has a good 1/2 season and we get a better price in the summer?

Id imagine its a twofold reason, firstly we keep the player and the squad harmony happy, secondly we put Clyne in the shop window for Edwards to weave his magic in the summer.

I agree with the 2nd paragraph but with regards the first....if you think Clyne was let go cause he offers nothing going forward will then why does Klopp like to play Gomez there who offers even less offensively?

Clyne to me looked like he had been practicing at a much higher level than Bournemouth was playing. Hes quite good. However, it appears to me that Klopp has planned to keep Milner on or near the pitch for the veteran leadership he offers, as well as the solid play and toughness levels and ribenna fueled running levels. Klopp likes to get best use out of people while he has them look at Can look at Stewart if you like. And obviously hes just come flat out and said it, to Pearce i think but someone anyway.

So i think he almost welcomes the injury's, not welcome them obviously but recognize them as an element in the Dance, for me hes planned since pre season that Milner will get those minutes here, there and everywhere so after Fab and Naby fully integrate in the second half of the year and acquire more minutes, Milner will still be at the races.

That means Clyne out. Sorry Clynie. But theres no mistake here, and no problem. Although to be honest, i didnt like Milner at right back enormously thought he did much better when moved up higher later on. But he can sure play a couple of games there without hurting our chances.

Amplification does not equal truth.

He plays him there when he's looking for more solidity in the role, because he's a better footballer and defender than Clyne.

Klopp and his staff are highly successful and experienced football professionals. They don’t have to publicly justify every decision that they make and I have no doubt that they always have the greater good of the team and club foremost in their thoughts.
Klopp has earned my trust and I am absolutely certain that there is a good reason why they let Clyne go. I don’t have to know what it is

I was saying something similar to a mate when the Clyne moved happened.

It made no sense for it to happen at that time. If he was unhappy (not that I know of) we should have agreed to loan him out but at the end of Jan at least Gomez would have been back then.

Insanity

Looking from his perspective, I just can't see why you would want to leave at the stage of the season - this may be his one and only chance to fight for a title. Yes, I accept that the opportunities are not there to play regularly but most of this has been of his own unavailability - others have come in and taken his place, it's not like we bought big to replace him.

Obviously that is not sustainable and most players (of his calibre) would look to move on but surely you would do that at the end of the season. The loan deal (and it's been talked about for months) shows he just wants to get out no matter what. Like I said a few weeks ago, if a player isn't bothered about the monumental prize that we are trying to achieve and doesn't even want to win it for himself then how can we trust him when the big moments come (as they will do)? The desire and focus to win will trump pure talent in the coming months.

Klopp is right to move him on in this situation and forget about him. Coutinho was the same, it left us short but there's no guarantee of performances from a player beyond a certain point.

Clyne asked for a move and Klopp obliged. Klopp mentioned how he has a duty of care for the lads and also some of the younger players coming through will most likely step up as they are impressing. Fair enough in the end, would have liked Clyne to stay but he wants to play and is too good to sit on the bench.

The trouble ox has is that his strength was his explosive pace and power and we've certainly missed that a bit this year. Especially in the away games against the big teams. We saw how good he was last year in important games.

I just don't think he will be same player. I really hope I'm wrong. Next year I think we should ease him back into it.
