Naby Keita

[Tribute]

Guinea are away to senagal on 9.9.19
Lets see if he somehow makes a recovery

...and if that's the case, most on here will go into meltdown - and rightly so.
Yes he's been unlucky with injuries, but how long does it take before we start thinking he's Lallana or Sturridge 2.0...? Understandably, some have started already...

What is this his 7th or 8th injury since joining us? Maybe he's just not cut out for Klopp's training and the rigours of the premier league Or maybe he has just been unlucky. Either way it's absolutely useless to us having another crock. IMO even though Klopp always gives players a chance, if this season is anything like last season for Naby.. he'll be on his way in the summer. Just hasn't offered us anything really since coming to LFC which is unfortunate as I thought he would tear it up here. Very frustrating.

[frank the tank]

the fact that we waited for a season for him to arrive at LFC makes it more frustrating.

The prick didn't even learn English either in the 12 months that he waited to join LFC. £50M transfer and he doesn't even learn the ****in language.

Taking the piss if you ask me.

And if he reports to his international team for duty, then we should **** the cunt off.

More like 3rd or 4th. He was actually only unavailable for just 10 games last season. And 4 of them were after that Rakitic tackle in the CL. Semi-final.

Yet he still somehow had an injury prone reputation before that (6 games missed). Maybe some are confusing Klopp not selecting him (as he tends to do when bedding in new signings) with being injured.

His injury record is being blown massively out of proportion.

Guinea ****ed him over by forcing him to play against his wishes when he was clearly still injured.

There is not much in this really other than speculative journalism.

Have to say, I googled a few articles earlier and came to a similar conclusion.

Part of me wondered if we're exaggerating it to excuse him from International duty.

If it was someone else then maybe. But if its Lallana, etc, then no. Looks like we need reinforcements in January. Lallana and Ox are my next two worries.

Why do you have to worry? Midfield is where we have the most depth and rightly so because it's the area where we rotate the most. I would be very surprised if we go out and spend for a midfielder in January.

He'll be fine. He clearly needs a good while off to recover, I'd much we took our time with him gradually getting him back to fitness than rushing him back. He's only young, there's no way his career is finished already.

These are his official injuries:

And yeah the African nations cup was a joke but he does seems to pick up a fair few minor injuries.

His national side playing him is IMO the big problem here, and I think many of us saw this coming when they insisted that he was fit to play for them rather than following the club's treatment plan.

3 injuries, totalling 11 games. So pretty much exactly what I said then (I was 1 game out!)

I never mentioned about the games he has missed mate I am talking about him being injured for periods of time that are stopping him from pushing on.

What that means is that he cannot seem to get fully match fit as he is "always on the way back from injury". We have not seen what he can do as him being match fit and sharp for a sustained period hasn't really happened yet.
