Liverpool legend John Barnes believes his old side will be able to cope without Thiago Alcantara following his injury against Fulham.
The Reds star limped off five minutes into the second half as his side kicked off their 2022/2023 Premier League campaign with a 2-2 draw at Craven Cottage. He was sent for a scan on Sunday which revealed the extent of the hamstring strain will keep him out of action for at least the whole of August, while reports last night suggested it could be six weeks.
Jurgen Klopp’s injury-list is already piling up, with his Spanish international joining the likes of Curtis Jones, Diogo Jota and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain on the treatment table, while Naby Keita looks set to return to full training following a short illness.
