Sadio Mané

Looking at the training pics and seeing Stewart, Randell, TAA, Woodburn and Wilson show how thin the squad is!

i just get the feeling one of them will step out [out of necessity] and amaze us all.

taa the favourite, maybe woody.

I'd love to see TAA start in Mane's position on Wednesday.

Will look shoddy if this costs us once again as it did when he went to ACN in January. We had ample opportunity to strengthen the squad.

I wouldn't be shocked if he's out for the season, it looked pretty horrific to me, like his whole knee lifted open and twisted if that makes sense

As others have said tho we have left ourselves too light this season....I understand we might have had to do it to help pay off new stand and also no European football, so we didn't need a huge squad but we clearly needed more than we had

We seem to have far too many injury prone players
Hendo been struggling for a couple years
It's come out can is constantly carrying knocks
Sturridge never fit
Poor Danny Ings
Lovren misses spells regularly
As does lallana
Gomez/grucic been out for a while and don't look like featuring any time soon on a regular basis

Then on top of that coutinho out for a while and struggled to get back and Mane with ACN and now this

[PTP]

I just hope its not too bad and he can come back the same player

They may very well do but it is shocking planning that we are reliant on one of them to 'save' our season. We are positioned so well now I hope we don't throw it away.

Just to add I have v high hopes for Woodburn and TAA btw, not knocking them.

Nightmare.

[Fernandinho]

News must surely be close to coming out now... My worry is they shouldn't really need to delay on MRI results, especially not with the medical resources the club has, so there is a good chance that they have done it because it is something longer term and they want to be sure...

[BG1973]

Argh..

What the **** is going on.

Every key player a bad injury this season barring firmino and he gets himself nicked.

[Bender]

might be rubbish it might be true ?

Someone said that someone told him that someone he knows has connections in the club.

Could be.

Rumours eh. I personally think it's not as bad as we think as he was walking unaided. But what do I know.

You can do your ACL (cruciate ligament) and easily walk unaided. Unfortunately the way he twisted his knee and the fact it's still swollen suggests it could well be that. I did mine playing football and was amazed how little the pain was considering the nature of the injury. Let's hope it's not but only time will tell

Exactly, i said as much earlier.

Souness commented on it as well, that it was worrying that he could walk OK until he applied load and almost collapsed (that could be a pain thing though).

Fowler came back on the pitch after doing his and there's probably countless similar stories, like big Marv Andrews who actually played on til the end of the season.

The swelling concerns me. No point in speculating but it doesn't look good.
