Liverpool v Wolves match thread

Weds 8pm

Jürgen Klopp expects Ibrahima Konate to be available for Liverpool’s Premier League meeting with Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The centre-half is back in full training after recovering from a muscle injury sustained in January.

Darwin Nunez, meanwhile, will continue to be assessed for the shoulder issue that forced him to sit out the weekend's draw at Crystal Palace.

Joe Gomez, Thiago Alcantara and Luis Diaz remain sidelined for the Reds.

Offering an update ahead of Wednesday's fixture with Wolves, Klopp told Liverpoolfc.com: "Darwin trained yesterday with us. Let's see if it's good enough for being part of the squad.

"Ibou trained now completely normal. Should be absolutely OK for the squad at least. Joe is injured.

"Lucho [is] looking good. I just watched him now training with the rehab guys and that looks really good – but he was not in team training yet, so that will take a while. And Thiago, in the moment, is doing his rehab."

Another three points please and our current run of decent league form to continue.

It’s more usual to say ‘another three points’ on the back of getting three points, but I’ll allow it.

Thiago must get so ****ing bored of doing his rehab.

What about Jones and Melo, do they still exist?

Jones and Melo sounds like a new ice cream or biscuit brand.

Is this a Carabao Cup 3rd round tie all of a sudden?

I've suffered some less-than-enthusiastic pre-match build-ups this season but **** me, tonight takes the piss. 4th time we've played these in 7 weeks. What a chore.

Am I being attacked?

I've suffered some less-than-enthusiastic pre-match build-ups this season but **** me, tonight takes the piss. 4th time we've played these in 7 weeks. What a chore.

If it helps, things get a bit tastier after this game as four of the following six games are against Man U, City, Chelsea and Arsenal.

[wiw]

When you say 'tastier' you mean 'worse', right?

[The_weatherman]

Gearing myself up for this, don't think I have anything else to really so I'll probably watch this.

Ali
TAA - Konate - VVD - Robertson
Hendo - Fabinho - Bajcetic
Salah - Gakpo - Nunez

I really don't want Hendo there though.

When you say 'tastier' you mean 'worse', right?

Nah I mean it in a big game "let's be 'avin' 'em" manner


At least three of those games are almost free hits in that a lot will expect us to lose, so any points won will feel good.

Have a sneaky feeling we will get eight points from those four games, seven at the worst.
