Daniel Agger today spoke of his delight at finally closing in on a first team return.
Agger has been out of action since breaking a metatarsal bone against Portsmouth in September but is now back in training after completing the long road to recovery.
However, his chance of getting match fitness under his belt for the reserves tonight has been dashed following the postponement of the game at Blackburn due to a waterlogged pitch.
He said: "I'm almost there, but of course I am going to need some playing time.
"Running around on the training ground is not the same as doing it on the pitch, but I'm almost back to full fitness now.
"I can't describe the feeling really. Especially as I'm here in Liverpool to play football. When you're not able to play, then well, I won't say there's no point in me being here, but it can sometimes feel that way.
"I'm looking very much forward to getting back. It is not fun being on the sidelines, especially not when you're at a club like this.
"There is massive competition for places, and it's all about giving your absolute best every time you play.
"It goes without saying that it's hard to do that when you're out, and being out for four months over such a small bone in my foot has been very frustrating."
Finally it looks like he is really there. Might get a run against Luton.
