Joel Matip Player Thread

Last I heard last night, he had done his ankle ligaments, out for months,

Out for 1 maybe 2 weeks at the most

They can rebuild him

With Matip it would be right parts in the wrong place, hes a disaster

Any statos on here?

Love to see how many weeks hes been injured since we signrd him. And how many times he played 3 or more games in a row

I still think he has a role at the club because Gomez will again get injured next year.

I hope we have a proper 3rd centre half ahead of Joel next year though and Joel only plays 1 or 2 games a month filling in for normal injuries and rotation.

If Joel is your 2nd change centre back then you have a good squad. Its a role Ledley King played for Spurs years back. If be breaks down then Fabinho or Hendo can play the odd game.

If hes not being asked to play every weekend then his injuries might not be as often. He juat needs knocking down the pecking order 

Out for the season, Klopp confirms.

Sorry for him, but the club must move on.

Did he do it on way to changing room because never saw anything bad during the half

Honest mate I think its something like that

Top defender but his body is not up to the PL unfortunately.

Best for both club and player that he moves to a less intense league in the Summer I'm sure he will have plenty of clubs interested.

Unbelievable stuff, really. Mind boggling our luck with CB's this season.

3 season-ending injuries to our top 3 CB's. But we "should have known".

Will always have that stretch where he was a key player us in the drive for Champions League title #6. He was especially good in that spell for us, probably his longest at the club where he stayed healthy.

Never been heard of 3 CBS out with 4 month plus injuries

Well with Matip we absolutely did know how injury prone he is.

We now know exactly why the club had to act so quickly when the extent of his injury became clear.

Also no chance of seeing Fab in midfield this season.

Yup. Considering the last minute crisis we were in Edwards and the club did amazing business.

They have but goes to show it really isn’t that difficult to bring in players as some experts on here would have you believe 😉

 Not when Liverpool FC come knocking.

You're right. They should pay Edwards per-diem instead of being a full time employee and only come in during deadline days to make the transfers.

"I was the same last night, bar one great tackle where he turns away with the ball taking it off the forward but he played on no bother after that for 15 or 20 mins"

I posted this in the match thread, Klopp has confirmed it as how it happenned. No luck the lad

Gutted but not surprised. One of the best defenders in the league when he plays but unfortunately his body's just not up to it.

He's one I think we need to let go in the summer.

Ultimately not surprised. A few days ago Klopp was asked about Matip's injury and he said they'd know in a few hours once the scans were done and never heard anything after that. If it had been good news they would have come out and said so but since it wasn't good news it makes sense to keep it quiet as it'd just give other teams more leverage when dealing with us.
