I read Klavan was also carrying some sort of injury.other than that [oops] up, Lucas was ok.
Klopp preferrred experience over Klavan even if he was fully fit.

Looks like Terry will be out for them as well, so I can see Firminho/Coutinho/Mane/Sturridge/Lalana causing them problems.

Yeah, need to be strong against Costa. He'll bully you if you let him. He looks back on form this season as well, another two goals today!

Will be a good test for Matip, he did well against Leicester, hopefully Lovren will be back, I don't fancy Lucas against Costa & co.

Yeah I've been impressed by Matip, he looks like he can dominate aerially which we've needed. Don't think we've had someone like that since Hyypia.

Apparently Vardy's goal should have been disallowed according to Howard Webb. Okazaki went into the penalty box to pressure Lucas before the ball was in play.

Howard Webb Explains Why Jamie Vardy's Goal Against Liverpool Should Have Been Disallowed

Ex-Premier League referee Howard Webb has delivered a stunning analysis of Jamie Vardy's goal against Liverpool, and explained why it should have been struck off.

Leicester City lost 4-1 to the Reds on Saturday, and their only goal came in the first half when Shinji Okazaki pressured Lucas into passing the ball to Vardy for an easy strike.

But as Webb duly pointed out, Lucas should have been spared the embarrassment as the goal should have been disallowed.

Webb is not liked by Liverpool supporters as they constantly accused him of showing favour to Manchester United over the years. But they will appreciate this bit of analysis from the former official, who now works as an analyst for BT Sport.

He came on the mic after the goal was scored, to say that it shouldn't have stood because Okazaki entered the penalty area before the ball had left it following Mignolet's goal-kick, infringing on law 16 of the rule-book.

The rule states that:

- The ball must be stationary and is kicked from any point within the goal area by a player of the defending team

- The ball is in play when it leaves the penalty area

- Opponents must be outside the penalty area until the ball is in play

webb is spot on , ok lucas made a mess of it but the law is clear the ball hadnt left the area when the leicester player was in the area , so the goalkick should have been re-taken and the goal disallowed .

Was it a goal kick, I don't remember, need to see it again. Otherwise yes, the ball needs to leave the box before any 'in the box' action by anybody.

It's mainly our defence which has been roller coaster and playing with 2 midfielders doesn't help.
