Not great news but if he's expected to be out for up to 6 weeks, you feel they hope he could be back training around Christmas time? He's a tough lad is Joe and has been through much worse, he'll dust himself down and he'll be right as rain.

Get well soon, Joe.

Big BIG chance for Lovren & Matip to step up.

Thought Joel was decent vs Burnley

gerrardisgod · « **Reply #2682 on:** December 6, 2018, 04:20:29 pm »

Big onus on Lovren and Matip staying fit now, which I’m not confident on.

Dench57 · « **Reply #2683 on:** December 6, 2018, 04:22:58 pm »

That's shit. Joe was in unreal form. Time for Lovren to step up to the plate again, we know he can. Just pray he stays fit because personally I'm nae arsed about seeing Matip against the likes of City.

6 weeks, disappointing but definitely feels like it would have been longer if ligaments were involved.

Sure he’ll be back as good as ever soon enough. In the mean time complete faith in Lovren & Matip to help keep us winning so when Joe returns we’re still challenging.

Felch Aid · « **Reply #2685 on:** December 6, 2018, 04:24:33 pm »

Lovren and Matip needed and is Clyne alive?

kaesarsosei · « **Reply #2686 on:** December 6, 2018, 04:25:16 pm »

This is nearly as good an outcome as we could have got, based on what we saw last night. Ligament injuries have a habit of re-occuring so it being a break, whilst hopefully only requiring the same time out as a ligament injury, to me is a positive. Also 6 weeks is at the bottom of what I expected which was 2 months.

The timing is bad considering the sheer volume of games he will miss at this time of year, but the final positive is that he will hopefully be well rested for the final third of the season.

Compared to the AOC situation where I had similar optimism but it turned into a disaster, it's hard to complain IMO.

Another month of Liverpool fans chucking their toys out of the pram in January on social media because we aren't signing another centre back. Oh joy.

robgomm · « **Reply #2688 on:** December 6, 2018, 04:39:13 pm »

6 weeks is and a nice, comfortably healing fracture is ten times better than ligaments for me. I did my ankle back in February and I'd rather I'd broken it than badly sprained it, not been right since. Physio said "bet you wish you'd have broken it".

wige · « **Reply #2689 on:** December 6, 2018, 04:40:36 pm »

Better than I expected, which is nice, but still a big loss during a busy and crucial (aren't they all) period of the season.

I'm comfortable with our CB cover, but have slight concerns what we do at RB if we want to rest Trent. Don't really want him accumulating too many minutes as a result of Gomez being out. Chance for Clyne? Guess we see how Klopp rates him vs options of giving Fabinho/Milner/Camacho time there.

planet-terror · « **Reply #2690 on:** December 6, 2018, 04:40:46 pm »

Wow. That's gutting for him. Big loss for us.
Get well soon Joe

kcbworth · « **Reply #2691 on:** December 6, 2018, 04:42:14 pm »

I expect to see Fabinho put back there at some point, and probably blow the socks off the role

JoeCole · « **Reply #2692 on:** December 6, 2018, 04:42:25 pm »

What's the situation with Lovren currently? Seems to completely drop from the match day squad every 2-3 weeks now, he's going to be very important for the next 6 weeks

Was ill the week before but had a clash of heads in training leading up to this game. Nothing major

This is a huge chance for Clyne now as well if he can keep healthy

Dave D · « **Reply #2694 on:** December 6, 2018, 04:47:27 pm »

Thankfully he'll be back with plenty of football still to be played. I'm still baffled why so many media outlets are claiming he injured himself sliding into to advertising hoarding though.

Anyway, we'll be fine. Our CB paring at home against Man City in the CL last season was Lovren and Van Dijk with Karius in goal. Our CB paring at home against Roma in the CL last season was Lovren and Van Dijk with Karius in goal.

Sharado · « **Reply #2695 on:** December 6, 2018, 04:48:18 pm »

Big loss as he's been nothing less than fantastic this season, and at times even better than VVD. Yes I said that, and I meant it.

Fortunately it's an area we have good cover in now and it's only 6 weeks, albeit at a bad time of year. Get well soon Joe. Take your chance Dejan/Nathaniel/Joel.

He's at Newcastle mate

It's a good shout that, he made the bench last night and Klopp was quite impressed with him in the summer

Lovren is Mr Niggle, always out for very short periods throughout the season

tubby · « **Reply #2700 on:** December 6, 2018, 04:59:31 pm »

Dunno I feel about this, could've been much worse, a fracture is better than ligament tears but 6 weeks is a lot of football without him over a busy period.

rkgriffin · « **Reply #2701 on:** December 6, 2018, 05:00:37 pm »

Feel bad for the lad. He was in the form of his life.

Not only big for Lovern and Matip to set up but also the likes of Clyne, Trent (in those games were Gomez was being picked), and possibly seeing Fabinho at right back too?

Welshred · « **Reply #2702 on:** December 6, 2018, 05:04:44 pm »

The fibula is a non-weight bearing bone so that's why it's 6 weeks. The tibia would have been longer but essentially as soon as it healed Joe should be good to go.

Syntexity · « **Reply #2703 on:** December 6, 2018, 05:05:10 pm »

Had a feeling something might be broken, but also thought it would be worse. 6 weeks is bad, and for a unnecessarily hard tackle in my view, but not as bad as it could have been. Awful timing as well, but cant wait to have him back! He has made it through some rough times, so he will probably be relieved its not a very long lay off.

Get well soon Joe!

Hazell · « **Reply #2704 on:** December 6, 2018, 05:05:32 pm »

Shit but was expecting worse after how he looked yesterday and Klopp's comments.

Back for the title and Champions League run ins

RedForeverTT · « **Reply #2705 on:** December 6, 2018, 05:14:05 pm »

Gutted.

Get well soon Joe.

c*nt of Sean Dyche to call that a fantastic tackle after it has fractured a player's leg. I wished someone would break his best player and then stick a nice post it on him written "fantastic tackle".

Burnley still have to come play Liverpool in Anfield, expect a tough reception for that c*nt Dyche and more c*nt Mee.

MolbyLovesGravlax · « **Reply #2706 on:** December 6, 2018, 05:16:48 pm »

Hope when he gets back we knock on the head the idea of him as a RB. He has been outstanding as a CB and he needs to play and learn alongside VVD. Id rather put Fab or even Milner/Hendo in at RB if need be (or hell maybe trust Clyne to be able to do a job against the lesser teams of the league) and just let Gomez develop into a top quality CB and just have a game off if we want to give Lovren time.

Bolrick · « **Reply #2707 on:** December 6, 2018, 05:16:51 pm »

f**k Ben Mee and Burnley...

hope they get relegated. Thug football has no place in the premier league.

Have Burnley got a best player to break?

Suprised to see calls for Camacho at RB, isn't he a winger. Did well in pre season there but the key words in that were pre season

He’s played quite a bit at full back. We are moulding a number of youth wingers as full backs, such as Lewis and Laroucci. It’s a wingers position for us

God damn it... What's up with Lovren also? Is he injured?

He'll be fit in time just for me to dust off the saying "he's like a new signing."

6 weeks is good.

If Lovren can stop being ill every other week we'll be absolutely fine.
