Liverpool injury updates
Jurgen Klopp about Liverpool injury updates:
Klopp on Jordan Henderson and Alison: “Hendo, he is running outside now. Not in team training yet, that’s it. Nothing really new [with injuries]. We have a few bumps and bruises, so we make some late decisions”.
“We had too many injuries in key positions. People think it’s an excuse but we lost our full defence, it felt like we broke our leg. You can limp but midfielders transformed to defenders and the spine was broke, then it’s difficult to move”.
“I always try to learn. Did I learn a lot? For sure. The players for sure, that’s clear. That’s the plan, to use the new experience for the future and next season but we have to wait until then to show we got it”.
