With not too much longer of the season left, time is starting to run out for a few.
From here on in, every game is of massive importance to Liverpool.
But Brighton are no mugs and Liverpool will need Anfield rocking and their best possible XI out if they’re to make sure of the win.
Klopp had reportedly been hoping for the return of Curtis Jones for this one, while Ibrahima Konate wasn’t seen in training yesterday.
The Scouser’s last game for Liverpool was now six weeks ago.
And according to Klopp, he’s still not completely sure that Curtis will be ready to play against Brighton.
However, there was good news in that the 23-year-old is at least set to re-join training today.
“Curtis, not sure if he’s available [for Sunday], but he will be in training today” said the manager, before updating on the rest of his injured players.
“Ibou, extra rest day [yesterday], nothing else.
They will join parts of team training, we will see what we do.
None are close to team training but they all make their steps, its all positive.”
Let’s cross our fingers that Jones reacts well to training and is ready to compete at the weekend.
As things stand, Jones is the only one of Liverpool’s senior midfielders out injured, other than long-term absentees Stefan Bajcetic and Thiago Alcantara.
So, should the academy graduate make it, Klopp will have the choice of picking his very best midfield for the first time in a long while.
Along with Jones, the only one not to be away on international duty this week has been Ryan Gravenberch.
