Reds face big problem for matchday two

After Liverpool's unexpected draw against Chelsea, Jurgen Klopp's side have been planning for their home opener against Bournemouth, with the German manager struggling to select the squad and bench for their second Premier League fixture as injuries continue to hamper the squad to some extent.

 

What can be ruled out from the outset is any kind of muscular or physical discomfort for any of the players who saw action at Stamford Bridge, focusing the issue of injuries especially in Thiago Alcantara and Stefan Bajcetic who have not yet reached a successful recovery that can take them to the courts, having to be again an estimate for their return that seems to indicate that it will not be very long.

In addition to this pair of problems that Jurgen Klopp has in the middle of the field with the injuries of the Spaniards, it is known thanks to Whatch LFC on Twitter, that Curtis Jones could not be seen at any time in the training session that the team had on Wednesday, quickly raising all kinds of assumptions, being that of a possible departure the most latent and damaging for a group that has not yet been able to find its third and final reinforcement.

 

<strong>Reds could be in trouble</strong>

Although it sounds far-fetched for the Reds to lose another midfield player at the moment, the departure of Jones could actually happen, as although it seems that there are no suitors for the Englishman, Crystal Palace are the ones who would put a figure for his departure from Merseyside, leaving a weaker Reds who could only be healed if the arrival of Wataru Endo, who plays for VfB Stuttgart, takes place.
