Liverpool have been awfully unlucky with injuries this season. The Reds have lost a ridiculous portion of their first team to the treatment table since the start of the campaign. With a crunch clash coming up this week, we need all the medical help we can get. Twitter has reacted after Liverpool issued a potentially major Naby Keita injury update.
Top of the table clash
Liverpool and Spurs are joint top of the table on points.
The North London side are ahead on goal difference, in part down to the Reds’ humiliation at Aston Villa.
This weekend both sides dropped points in disappointing 1-1 draws.
With the teams tied on points, the winner of Wednesday’s game will go clear at the top of the table.
Heading further into a hectic winter fixture list, this small amount of breathing room could prove vital.
Naby Keita injury update
Liverpool were without their Guinean midfielder at the weekend.
The ex-RB Leipzig man was pulled out of the squad due to a fitness issue.
Today Jürgen Klopp issues a Naby Keita injury update which has given fans hope ahead of Wednesday’s game. The boss told a pre-match press conference:
“Naby maybe [back]. Was involved in extended warming up. Another session today, we will make a decision.”
Fans buzzing about Naby Keita update
Fans are crying out for him to get a run in the side.
We could really do with his energy and ingenuity in the middle.
It’s good news for fans.
Because he is world class talent on his day, he just doesn’t get many days.
