A bit harsh ecnirp! He and VVD had struck up a great partnership making our defence rock solid, getting it's just rewards in shutting out Spurs in The CL Final. I'm certain Matip is enjoying his football more than he ever has before in his career alongside our Rolls Royce.
Klopp needs to embed Gomez back in the team alongside VVD because Lovren would fill me with dread if he played in the City game.
I like Matip, he is an excellent CB who deserves to play first choice alongside VvD, problem is he is injury prone, unfortunately some players are, I have no problem with his new contract and we are right to keep & reward him, just sods law as soon as we do he is out injured. I think Klopp is still easing Gomez back after his injury to get fitness, we know Klopp doesn't like to rush injured players back, especially young ones, so I expect Lovren to play for now.

Back to his old ways? What an idiotic comment. He's in the form of his life, champion of Europe, playing at the top of the table. You think he got hurt deliberately, or that he's ducking training? Behave. I don't believe he deliberately got injured or is ducking anything, he's a top player and we are better with him, I was just saying it's sods law we give him a new long deal and he gets injured immediately, he is prone to picking up these niggling injuries, then again, I guess we have the same with Lovren & Gomez who never seem to be available for a few months on the run. I can understand being frustrated, but he's had a pretty long run fit, bar breaking his collarbone last year. Aside from the collar bone, this is the first injury in awhile. Even with that he has racked up 30+ appearances for the past 2 years. What I am referring to is the old ways comment. On this site in particular, many people have made similar comments about player injuries, as though they were down to mental fragility alone.
