VOTE: Who should replace Jordan Henderson?
So with Jordan Henderson ruled out, Liverpool will have to make at least one change against West Ham.
But who comes into midfield?
James Milner replaced him against Atletico Madrid when the Reds skipper limped off, while Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita will both fancy their chances.
Or could Jurgen Klopp spring a curve-ball and opt for Adam Lallana or even Curtis Jones?
Have your say...
Lazio want Lallana
Adam Lallana will leave Liverpool this summer.
We all already know that.
What we don’t know is where he’s off.
Arsenal, Tottenham Leicester, West Ham and Southampton have all been linked along with a couple of Serie A sides if I remember right.
But the latest reports from Italy claim Lazio have now entered the hunt.
The Italians already have former Reds Lucas Leiva, Luis Alberto and Bobby Adekanye on the books as they challenge for the Serie A title.
Could Lallana become the fourth?
Atletico Madrid handed double injury boost
It was a good day for Atletico Madrid last night.
Boosted by beating Liverpool in midweek, they strolled to a 3-1 victory over Villarreal.
Diego Costa was absent for Atleti, not really sure why, but the result wasn’t the only thing that made up for his absence.
Joao Felix made his return from injury to score for the Spaniards...
Meanwhile, Kieran Trippier also made his return from injury off the bench ahead of schedule.
Liverpool dealt Osimhen blow
Remember Victor Osimhen?
Liverpool were linked with the Lille striker earlier this season, along with a whole host of other top sides, as he continues to impress in Ligue 1.
Whether the Reds are actually interested or not remains to be seen. But according to Lille president Gerard Lopez, speaking to RTL’s Soir de Ligue 1, cited by All Nigeria Soccer, he isn’t going anywhere...
Osimhen will be at Lille next season. Afterwards, there are factors that I cannot control.
I do not control the fact that a club arrives and offers a salary six or eight times higher than what we can offer.
But I think sometimes it’s better not to take a big salary and wait until next season.
