      JĆ¼rgen has said Fab has no chance of playing this weekend, and he'll know more over the severity of Joel's injury in a few hours.


      If you thought we were at breaking point before concerning centre half injuries.......

      Iā€™m more European when it comes to football 😂

      Plus ever since they hired Berhalter to coach the national team I havenā€™t really watched them much. Although I suppose maybe I should as we do have some talented young attacking players getting time in Europe now.

      I wouldnā€™t have guessed the is guy was the captain though. Weird.

      I don't like Berhalter either but with the way the players in Europe are performing it forces his hand to play them and not only MLS ones. Thank heavens.

      Haven't been this excited about the US mens time in a long time. Pulisic, Reyna, McKennie, Dest, Sargent and others are just very exciting and promising.

      There isn't much of a choice anymore. Matip is likely out for the season.

      Didnā€™t Klopp just say that Matips injury might not be as bad as first feared

      The most recent statement i have seen from Klopp is he saying they don't have final results because the scan hasn't happened yet and would know more in a few hours.

      Any way you slice it, your best case scenario is "weeks" and worst case (ligament damage) is "months".

      Especially with Joel. He seems to pull up at the slightest hint of strain so if it's really ligament damage, I'd say he's out for the foreseeable future. Virgil may make it back before him. But we've left it too late to get a decent replacement at this point so I'd say we are well and truly forked.

      Aaron Long is a big body, but he tends to give the ball away rather easily under pressure. Very difficult to believe Klopp would want to bring him in, even on loan. More of a Championship player (like Nat Phillips).

      Had a peek on youtube, I know, I know.

      Id pass on him, think he would die a death in the prem league, Philipswould beva safer bet. Just my opinion and based on youtube

      But we need a CB....ANYONE.....ANYONE I SAY!

      Seriously though, up until Matip's injury i could have lived with no one coming in because you need QUALITY, not just a body with a pulse, but with Joel out for weeks, maybe even the season, we now need numbers.

      Yeah. Hopefully it's just typical Internet transfer gossip. Before today he was being linked with .....wait for it.......Reading.

      It would be the very definition of "warm body." Bu as CT says, the numbers may be so low that "warm body" will have to do.

      I just kind of think JĆ¼rgen made a slightly hopeful comment about a possible incoming (he didn't really even say anything different) and now every Twitter/Clickbait merchant in the universe is churning out something to win themselves some Bitcoin. I suspect if anyone comes in we will only know when it's nearly done.

      Until then Reds, breathe and watch replays of last night's game.  xxxxx:action-smiley-065:

      Whatever JĆ¼rgen might say in public, reckon he will be REALLY pissed off if we don't get a CB in this window.
      EVEN if we do sign one, he would still likely play Fab/Hendo in there CB aswell.  fu**ed up situation really .

      Puzzling to me people still don't understand why Fabinho plays CB.

      1. He's very good at the position. I'd say be plays it better than Matip and Joe
      2. Klopp has had him practicing in defense since day 1.

      ā€œMy debut as a [centre half] was here at Liverpool,ā€ Fabinho told Esporte Interativo. ā€œSince then I always do some training, especially when one or two injuries occur. We never know when we will need it, but the coach has already prepared for this since my first season.

      As cool as it would to get an American on the squad (I'm from the U.S) it can't be Aaron Freaking Long. Botman for sure 👍
