Jurgen Klopp appeared to aim a little dig at Liverpool’s medical staff after being left frustrated that he can’t call upon Naby Keita or Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in the Champions League group stages.
Liverpool have travelled to Amsterdam to play Ajax on Wednesday night, knowing a draw will be enough to secure their passage to the last-16. Klopp has been handed a double injury boost, with Ibrahima Konate and Darwin Nunez back fit.
But he still has problems in other areas, with Thiago Alcantara unavailable because he is still recovering from the ear infection that ruled him out of the 1-0 loss at Nottingham Forest on Saturday. Thiago’s absence is amplified by the fact that Klopp will not be able to call on fellow midfielders Keita and Oxlade-Chamberlain.
