Is he a bit thick?

If there’s any beef, he won’t be a chicken. And less injury prone than Oxolade-Chamberlain

[SamLad]

If true, that would have me incredibly aroused. Much to my colleagues dismay.

how many times do you need to be told - no standing up during Zoom meetings!

Since we all love a conspiracy theory...I wonder if we're got to a point with a few of the injuries where they are maybe closer than we think to returning but don't particularly want some doofus international coach saying 'Well if he's ok to train I'll call him up'

I bloody hope so

Some questionable Twitter suggestions that jota is back in training today. Nothing said about him expressly in presser

says it all

Any update on Jayden Danns? Haven't heard anything in a while

  Seeing he is out due to concussion. That is a long time with that given he played on that day with no real issue. Hope he is alright

Its quite normal these days mate, especially with his age.

He never even left his feet with that challenge, you would think the Forest Keeper had it worse

I thought he would be available tonight

Concussion injuries can be quite difficult to diagnose and then put a timeline of return on.


Can be the case that concussion symptoms don’t manifest until a day after the collision.  Can complete a game fine then feel symptoms hours later. Obviously sometime symptoms are there straight away. It’s also no indication of how long symptoms will last. Can be 5-7 days. Can be weeks.


There is probably defined protocols the club will follow around concussion recovery. There’s probably less room to manoeuvre on this compared with non-head football injuries. Assuming Danns would need to clear certain assessments before being allowed to play again - from a Liverpool and football authorities perspective.

[paulrazor]

good intel Jookie

thanks

[Caligula?]

So Gravenberch, Jones, Danns, Trent and Konate could all be fit to play some role against Brighton. Other than Konate I'm guessing none of them will play but the thought of having them back is still nice.

Head knocks are completely different and everyone will respond differently too it.

It doesn't happen as much in this sport as it does others but will class action lawsuits happening in other sports where full contact is allowed they are players retiring in their peaks to on going on concussion issues.

As the other lad said above some people may feel affects for a few days and others can have symptoms for weeks.

Pep and City medical staff get de Bruyne non-selection from next international friendlies
https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/68563476  -injured.. watch him play or on subs bench vs Luton

 and I see Arsemal's White has made himself unavailable for English friendlies...
https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/68568456

Hopefully Klopp and medical staff are calling our international managers and saying forget it .. like Bradley Northern Ireland..  not now FFS he is our only fit RB. 

Gomez  back into England team FFS. .

and Egypt manager cannot wait to call up Mo!!

Egypt and Liverpool have agreed Salah isnt going to their next games

Bradley and Gomez selected for NI & England

White 'made himself unavailable' - Southgate
Defender Joe Gomez, who has not played for England since 2020, has been included after impressing for Liverpool at left-back, centre-back and right-back this season.
https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/68564319

Liverpool's Conor Bradley has returned to Northern Ireland's squad but Jonny Evans is out for the friendlies away to Romania and Scotland.

Bradley missed the majority of NI's Euro 2024 qualifying campaign with a back injury.

Centre-back Evans, 36, has featured in Manchester United's last three matches.

NI boss Michael O'Neill said it was in Evans' "best interests" as the defender has been nursing calf and foot injuries recently.

"It gives him a longer recovery period and he has important games between now and the end of the season for Manchester United," said O'Neill.

"And with his own personal situation at the club going forward [he is out of contract in the summer], we'll go forward in March without Jonny but he is still very much a part of things.

FFS we have 10 injuries and are going for 3 trophies and the all important Premier league title!!  ... all Liverpool players should be unavailable next 2 weeks.

Robertson will probably be called up by Scotland, VVd, Gakpo for NL, Endo for Japan!!!

They're international friendlies. They'd be stupid not to be pulling players out of internationals.

Gomez will want to make the Euros though so it's his chance to stake a claim after not making squads for a while. De Bruyne will obviously play for Belgium at the Euros. Also having international captains means clubs more eager to pick them, but we should be getting several out of international duty at least.

Did Virgil come on for Quansah due to an injury? If not can’t help but think Ibu won’t be fit for the weekend.

[BobPaisley3]

Did Virgil come on for Quansah due to an injury? If not can’t help but think Ibu won’t be fit for the weekend.

No, resting, which suggests he’ll play the next one.

[Buster Gonad]

Pretty sure it was tactical.  Think Konate will be on the bench at best but wouldn't be the slightest bit worried about Quansah

[classycarra]

Did Virgil come on for Quansah due to an injury? If not can’t help but think Ibu won’t be fit for the weekend.

Nope.

So yeah defo at the very least preparing contingency that Konate can't play - and given he's likely to play for France (Klopp's had a go at them in the past), maybe they'll just do it anyway.

Wish more of our players pulled out but whatever, hopefully they'll be wise and negotiate something better than two appearances and any full 90s (eg VVD declined Van Gaal's offer of a game off during our last quadruple run)

[jillcwhomever]

Quansah was booked I don't know if it was for that reason.

[rawcusk8]

Thanks for the replies folks.

Haha Klopp saying he told Mo to stop defending and stop running 😁

[bobadicious]

Quansah was booked I don't know if it was for that reason.

He was getting subbed before the booking so just think preplanned
