Reds await scan on Henderson after midfielder suffers knee injury against Brighton
Liverpool are waiting to see the extent of the knee injury suffered by Jordan Henderson during The Reds' 3-1 win at Brighton on Wednesday night.
Henderson had scored Liverpool's second goal of the night, following Mohamed Salah's opener, as Jürgen Klopp's side raced into an early two-goal lead at the Amex Stadium. Leandro Trossard pulled a goal back for Brighton just before the break but a brilliant header for Salah's second goal of the game gave The Reds a 3-1 …

Liverpool's likely lineup to face Brighton tonight
Liverpool travel to face Brighton in the Premier League tonight with the aim of breaking Manchester City's 100-points record haul still firmly in sight. We've had a look at the possible starting eleven for The Reds.
Jürgen Klopp's side beat Aston Villa 2-0 on Sunday thanks to late goals from Sadio Mané and Curtis Jones. That three points will have gone some way towards banishing the memory of last Thursday's 4-0 defeat at the hands of Manchester City.
Tonight, Liverpool …
Wout Weghorst A Potential Liverpool Plan B
After failing to land Timo Werner, Liverpool will have to look elsewhere for another forward option. The rapid German, who is bound for Stamford Bridge and Chelsea, was deemed as perfect for the Reds, so it came as a big blow to their fanbase when the 24-year-old committed to Frank Lampard in a money-spinning deal.
The reigning Premier League champions -- whose financial muscle, along with 99% of all clubs around the world, has been lessened by the ongoing pandemic …
Why Thiago to Liverpool would be odd
Thiago Alcantara is the latest big name player to be (heavily) linked with Liverpool this summer. And he is the business.
Thiago is an absolutely elite central midfielder, who would improve most central midfields in the entire world. If we’re being honest, he would improve Liverpool’s and would certainly be an exceptional option to have kicking about.
My point is that when I say this transfer is very odd and not at all what I would expect Liverpool to do, …
Liverpool defender insists he's fit and ready to play against Brighton on Wednesday

Klopp praises Naby Keïta as "super solution" after Reds win against Villa
Liverpool midfielder Naby Keïta was labelled a "top, top player" today by Reds boss Jürgen Klopp after the Guinea international helped break the deadlock against a stubborn Aston Villa defence.
Keïta played 85 minutes of the 2-0 win over relegation-threatened Villa at Anfield, laying on the assist for Sadio Mané's opening goal.

Liverpool's Relegated Player Transfer Roulette
Liverpool have already felt the brunt of the financial pinch caused by the ongoing pandemic.
Long linked with Timo Werner, the Reds -- who were either unwilling or unable to match the financial package on offer in West London -- were beaten to the signing of the German international by Chelsea.
The prevailing sense, as suggested by all of the journalists close to the club, is that reigning European, World, and English champions will be relatively quiet in the upcoming …
