Liverpool face Arsenal this weekend in a huge clash between the sides and it’s safe to say that we’re without several key men for the match.
As confirmed on liverpoolfc.com, the Reds are set to be without: ‘Thiago Alcantara, Stefan Bajcetic, Ben Doak, Joel Matip, Darwin Nunez, Mo Salah, Kostas Tsimikas and Wataru Endo’ for the game with the Gunners.
It’s a considerable amount of players to be missing, even if most are long-term concerns that we were already aware of in the past few weeks and months.
The latest name of the list of stricken players is Darwin Nunez and being without him against Mikel Arteta’s side will be a big loss for the Reds.
However, in Diogo Jota, Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo – we certainly have more than capable deputies that should be able to occupy the opposition defenders at the Emirates Stadium.
Once our No.9 and Mo Salah come back into the available attacking options though, it’s set to be a scary time for any team in the Premier League and further afield.
Once we also have Wataru Endo, Thiago Alcantara and Stefan Bajcetic back involved too, that will also ease the burden placed on Alexis Mac Allister as the sole No.6 option at the moment.
We’ve juggled so many fitness and availability problems this season, let’s hope this is as tough as it gets for Jurgen Klopp in his final months as gaffer.

Is this article preparing LFC to feel better after the loss tomorrow? Some sort of mental preparation so it does hurt cause we had SO MANY players injured and available? By the author’s own admission names mentioned are either long-term injuries or not first team players. The question remains: what is objective of this article?
Liverpool must try as much as possible to use all the chances they get, if they are to win .
If we could be with Nunez then Arsenal is no more again but we have no fear against Arsenal
