Daniel Agger out for further seven weeks? Or not!

[Bender]

Liverpool defender Daniel Agger is set to be out of action for a further seven weeks after suffering a recurrence of a back injury.

Sources close to the club have revealed exclusively to ClickLiverpool that the Danish international's return to first-team action has been delayed after pulling up in training with a strain.

Agger has had continuous problems with the injury since joining the Reds from Brondby in 2006.

It is believed that Rafael Benitez prefers the 24-year-old to partner Martin Skrtel in central defence but his injury problems have allowed Jamie Carragher to lead Anfield back line despite criticism from some elements of Liverpool's support.

Agger is expected to be available for the trip to Fulham on October 31.

Is he ever going to be injury free

Is he ever going to be injury free

Sadly, no.

Wasn't it well documented that this lad was injury prone before we bought him? This makes me worry about Aquilani and Rafa's faith in our medical team. I hope I'm wrong.

This is unbelieveable.

This is getting ridiculous.

a talent wasted in injuries unfortunatly

Sell him in January regardless, this lad is going to be continuously injured with only the odd month fit each season. Sad as he's potentially our best defender but he's another Kewell/Degen/Hegem...

Kewell got absolutely destroyed for never being fit.

Agger is becoming a drain on resources, and if we ever get a decent bid for him I'd hope we take it. Classy player, but a total crock.

I think you're all being a bit harsh on the lad. His metatarsal injury was unfortunate but this back injury is a bit of a worry. He's young and IMO by far our best defender when on form and fit

He adds so much to the team and we need someone like him to play the ball out from the back. I wouldnt be happy with Carra (who i doubt has more than 2 seasons at his best), Skrtel and Kyrgiakos as our 3 main defenders. It wasnt long ago people were praying for him to sign a new contract and would have turned down bids in excess of 10 million for him.

I bet he's not even ****ing injured, probably high as a kite and trying to get him off the drugs is taking longer than expected.

****ing tit balls ****

Remember all the back injuries Gerrard had when he was young all those years ago? Agger will pull through.
