James Milner has a hamstring injury, which means Neco Williams is our only right-back option for the foreseeable.
The Welshman was hauled at half-time today but it’s important we get behind him as with Trent Alexander-Arnold out, he’s our only option, given James Milner did his hamstring today.
The fact is that Liverpool are losing a player with a muscle injury every single game – and you can guarantee the early kick-off today partly caused it.
Post-match, Klopp rubbed salt in the wounds by explaining how Thiago and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain won’t be back for next weekend either.
That’ll be approaching seven weeks for Thiago, who apparently just had a slight knock.
Klopp confirms that Milner has a hamstring problem and says neither Thiago nor Oxlade will be back for the games against either Ajax or Wolves. #LFC

We have no idea what kind of team Klopp will put out midweek and v Wolves next weekend. His job is getting harder by the minute.
Let’s just hope a few of the currently crocked XI return in time so we can put an at least recognisable side out in a week.
Is thiago ever going to play or did we even sign him. Back in light training weeks ago but apparently still not fit. Time to get rid if he never going to play. We need thiago training fully next week kieta and trent need to be back training too. I see other teams two games a week and very little muscle injuries. Shaqiri too is he made of glass. Var needs to go too. Nearly every game this season lpool have had a shocking var decision go against them. Shocking.
