    Liverpool hopes that by the time they go to play Manchester City next Saturday, their concerns about injuries will have substantially subsided.

    Eight players were left off of Jurgen Klopp’s roster for the 3-0 victory over Brentford at Anfield before to the most recent international break.

    However, there is hope that when the team gets back together before facing the Premier League winners, things will look much better.

    Naturally, Alexis Mac Allister will be back in action following his one-match suspension for receiving five yellow cards.

    Positive updates regarding the health of four celebrities who were sidelined recently due to injuries are also available.

    Surprisingly missing from the team to play Brentford were Joe Gomez and Ibrahima Konate, the former of whom had to withdraw from his France international duties.

    However, This Is Anfield is aware that both players’ absences were due to minor ailments that should have healed in time for the trip to the Etihad Stadium.

    A similar prognosis was also revealed by sources for Ryan Gravenberch, whose run of four straight Premier League starts was cut short by a knee niggle.

    But starting next weekend, the young Scouser Curtis Jones—who is expected to come back from hamstring trouble—will present new midfield competition for the Dutchman.

    Thiago and Andy Robertson are remain sidelined for Liverpool, and it seems unlikely that they will return to action until the new year.

    After a recent setback, Stefan Bajcetic may be recovering on a similar schedule if the Reds go cautiously with his recuperation.

    Conor Bradley, a right-back, is getting better. In recent weeks, he has intensified his rehabilitation at the AXA Training Centre in anticipation of making a comeback.

    About Mo Salah's future at Liverpool, David Ornstein discusses what he has been hearing thus far.

    At this point, Mohamed Salah might be considering staying at Liverpool past the end of the current campaign.

    Al Ittihad of Saudi Arabia showed a lot of interest in Salah throughout the summer, and Liverpool turned down a huge offer for their number eleven.

    Since then, it’s been widely believed that the Saudis will make Mo a second offer in January or early next year. Many Reds supporters may have already come to terms with the possibility that this is Salah’s final season at Anfield.

    However, journalist David Ornstein now suggests that could not be the case after all. In a Q&A session with The Athletic, Ornstein was questioned whether the future of the Egyptian superstar had received “any noise.” Liverpool supporters will find encouragement in his response.

    The journalist answered, “No, other than I don’t think it’s set in stone he goes.”

    “I’ve even heard some comments that he would want to stay and carry on competing in Europe at the top level. Of course, it’s a big decision for the player and the team.

    Liverpool gave Salah motivation.

    About Mo Salah's future at Liverpool, David Ornstein discusses what he has been hearing thus far.

    The Saudi interest that surfaced during the summer, which was naturally turned down, was in some respects a good thing.

    It helped Liverpool fans prepare for the possibility that, in a year, their Egyptian King may actually leave the team. That has been the general sentiment among supporters.

    However, given that the Saudis frequently perform for audiences of fewer than 1,000, maybe the situation has changed.

    Nobody knew for sure how the Pro League initiative would turn out back in the summer. Many well-known players were moving to the Middle East, raising hopes that the league would soon be on par with its European rivals.

    That may still be the case in the future, but it hasn’t materialised as of yet. It appears more and more like it will follow in the unfortunate footsteps of the Chinese Super League with each passing week. Is anyone really bothered outside of the transfer window?

    You can see why Mo might have been tempted by an offer a year ago. Now, though, there ought to be a legitimate doubt. It will appear as though he is conceding that his career is failing by moving from the Premier League to the Pro League.

    Salah might still be content to take that step, but we believe his fierce competitiveness might be about to turn the tide. He is thirty-one years old.

    Hopefully, Liverpool’s return to form and a few trophies this season will satiate his desire and convince him to stay. It seems as though things are about to change. Mo may finally have his “Wolf of Wall Street” moment.

  • Following Konate’s injury, Didier Deschamps answers to Jurgen Klopp’s criticism of “rest”

    Following Konate’s injury, Didier Deschamps answers to Jurgen Klopp’s criticism of “rest”

    Following Konate's injury, Didier Deschamps answers to Jurgen Klopp's criticism of "rest"

    After Jurgen Klopp recently criticised Ibrahima Konate for being left out of the France team owing to a hamstring issue, manager Didier Deschamps has responded.

    Due to an injury sustained last week, Konate will miss France’s forthcoming Euro 2024 qualifiers against Gibraltar on November 18 and Greece on November 21.

    Axel Disasi of Chelsea will take the 24-year-old’s place, the French Football Federation revealed in a statement on Sunday night, citing a “small muscle injury to his left hamstring.”

    A “approximately two weeks” rehabilitation period has already been established, indicating that Konate should be ready for Liverpool’s November 25 match against Man City.

    It follows sardonic criticism of Deschamps’ usage of Konate during the October break, with Klopp telling the French manager that “that’s how you rest a player” following the Reds’ 5-1 victory against Toulouse at home.

    When questioned about Klopp’s remarks during a press conference on Monday, Deschamps stated, “It probably happened in the past and it will happen again at other moments.”

    “Because national team managers and club managers have different circumstances and goals.

    “Like any manager, I try to manage them.” They are able to handle them a little better during weeks when there are three games. We are here, and we are playing two games.

    French publication RMC Sport published Deschamps’ measured remarks, in which the 55-year-old went into additional detail regarding Konate’s injury.

    The choice was taken not to jeopardise Liverpool’s No. 5 so that “there is no problem for the rest of season in this calendar year,” according to the former midfielder for Marseille, Juventus, and Chelsea.

    “Ibou, as we previously informed you, did not participate in the Liverpool match in Toulouse, but he prepared for a potential role throughout the game,” Deschamps stated.

    “He experienced a hamstring issue. His testing came back normal, though.

    He requires some time to avoid taking any chances. He had already had an injury there.

    Neither the player’s nor my interests were served by it. He could have only been available for training on Friday or Saturday, at best.

    Joel Matip may still start for Man City against Liverpool, but if Deschamps is right, Konate should be ready.

    Jarell Quansah remains in place as England summons five Liverpool players.

    Expert: Liverpool's demand for Mohamed Salah will be "100%" accepted; "it's happening." Mohamed Salah moving from Liverpool to Saudi Arabia in 2024 is "inevitable," according to Gabby Agbonlahor. Speaking exclusively to Football Insider, the former striker for Aston Villa stated that while Jurgen Klopp won't be pleased to lose him, it might be "good business" for the Merseysiders. Monday, October 30, Football Insider reported that despite continued Saudi interest, Liverpool will not sell their 31-year-old top player, Mohamed Salah, in January. The Saudi Pro League is reportedly working behind the scenes to recruit forward and Man City star Kevin De Bruyne to the Middle East in the summer of 2024, insiders have also told Football Insider. With 13 games played across all competitions, Salah has recorded 10 goals and four assists to start the 2023–24 campaign in customary fashion. His alleged £350,000-per-week deal is scheduled to end in June 2025. Agbonlahor said, "I do see Mo Salah in Saudi Arabia, 100%," to Ewan Kingsbury of Football Insider. "He is going to be the player with the biggest salary. It does occur, and I observe it during the summer. "There will be one year remaining on his contract, and Liverpool will be aware of this and able to find a replacement." "I don't believe Liverpool is motivated by money. With the requested fee, customers will receive anything they want. Even though Klopp won't want to part with him, it's possible that he'll be granted the money to find a younger replacement. "Whether Salah's legs will begin to fail in the upcoming years is unknown. In my opinion, it would be wise for business to let him depart in 2024

    Jarell Quansah remains in place as England summons five Liverpool players.

    Jarell Quansah, who will remain with the U21s, was one of five Liverpool youngsters called up to the England youth teams for the November international break.

    Against Toulouse, Quansah made his fifth start for Liverpool and had a chance to tie the score in the closing seconds, but his attempt was controversially disallowed.

    It followed another impressive performance from the 20-year-old, even though the Reds gave up three goals and saw Caoimhin Kelleher lose two more games due to offside calls.

    Prior to the match, Klopp stated that Quansah’s future was “very promising” and acknowledged that he was “surprised” by his pre-season potential.

    This belief also extends to the Three Lions lineup, as the center-back, Harvey Elliott, and Tyler Morton are included in Lee Carsley’s England U21s roster for this month.

    The England U21 team’s most recent qualifiers for the U21 Euros in 2025 are against Serbia on November 18 and Northern Ireland on November 21.

    During the October break, Elliott donned the captain’s armband, while Morton, who was placed on standby last month, has now been called up due to his Hull loan performances.

    With his loan club, Hull, Morton has started seven of the previous eight Championship games. Hull is presently tenth in the second division.

    In the meantime, Luke Chambers, who is close to breaking into the Liverpool first team, has been called up to the England U20s squad for their matches against Italy on November 16 and Germany on November 20.

    Calum Scanlon, another left-back with a lot of potential, has been called up by the England U19s for their matches in Marbella against Romania on November 15, Japan on November 18, and Mexico on November 21.

    Scanlon made his senior debut for the Reds during the last 24 minutes of last month’s 5-1 victory over Toulouse, coming in for Chambers off the bench.
