“I look up to Dejan,” the former Celtic defender told Soccer on Sunday. “Last Sunday he took me fishing and taught me how to make love to a woman. At first my wife was uncomfortable with Dejan there, but once we had bibs on and he’d laid cones around the bed, he got his message across very effectively.”

Jürgen Klopp confirmed Dejan Lovren sustained a hamstring injury during Liverpool’s 2-1 defeat at Wolverhampton Wanderers in the FA Cup on Monday night.
The centre-back was forced from the field after just six minutes of the third-round encounter at Molineux, with the Reds needing to call upon 16-year-old Ki-Jana Hoever to replace him.
Klopp told his post-match press conference: “[It is his] hamstring, is what I heard - without any signs before. I asked everybody, no signs, nothing, just out of the blue, so that’s the decision you have to make.
“I am not sure what you all would have said if immediately from the beginning if our centre-half situation was Fabinho and Ki-Jana; then probably a few very smart people would tell me that I don’t respect the competition or whatever.
“So, we tried to do all the things [we could]. Of course, on the other hand it doesn’t make sense to bring in a 16-year-old boy from the start. You don’t bring him, you wait until he is completely ready, but he did well. He came on and did well. That’s how it sometimes starts - when you are really needed then it is only about if you are good enough and not how old you are.
“He did well, so that was all OK. That’s it.”
Asked about the potential length of time Lovren is facing on the sidelines, Klopp replied: “I don’t know in this moment.”Thanks very much for being ‘This Mornings’ Farmer’

Him and Matip can’t be relied on, the two of them are perma crocks. Any players we sign under Klopp seem to be durable and less injury prone. Bin the two of them in the summer and buy another top CB to rotate with Gomez and VVD. Promote someone to be the 4th CB or get a Klavan type player.Originally posted by Shaggy View PostApparently the longest run of games Lovren has put together for us, without getting injured, is 6 games. Tonight was his 7th start in a row.
Totally injury prone.

I'm assuming he is out for the weekend and presumably Gomez and Matip are still out so are we looking at VVD and Fabinho at CB for that game?The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.
