Jurgen Klopp confirms TRIPLE injury boost ahead of Liverpool vs. Inte
Jurgen Klopp has provided a welcome update on the availability of Roberto Firmino, Joel Matip and Thiago, with the latter duo likely to be in the squad vs. Inter at the very least.
Liverpool had three enforced absences against West Ham, with Firmino, Matip and Thiago all ruled out due to injury or illness.
The Brazilian was expected to return to team training on Sunday while the visit of Inter had been signposted as a potential return date for Thiago, both of which could be ticked off.

With another vital 90 minutes ahead on Tuesday night, Klopp offered an update on the trio and their progress on the eve of the Champions League fixture and it’s a welcome one.

“I think all trained yesterday [Sunday], full,” Klopp told reporters. So not sure yet what we make of that exactly, to be honest, as we have to see how they react.

“Thiago only a week out, probably fine but have to wait, Joel only three, four days so will be fine.

not bad, but not for tomorrow. get the full weeks work that they can do in and see where they are for weekend.
 
Naby shouldn't play - need to give a rest else we'll break him. And can't rush Thiago back either. My guess is that Jones may get a start on that left side.

In all scenarios, hopefully we can just kill the game in the first half and then start taking players off early.

Jurgen Klopp admits he is “really happy” Inter man is suspend
Jurgen Klopp is “really happy” Inter Milan will be without midfielder Nicolo Barella on Tuesday night, with the 25-year-old in supreme form last time out in Serie A.
The Liverpool manager is aware of the danger posed by Inter despite holding a 2-0 lead in the Champions League last 16, with Simone Inzaghi’s side thrashing Salernitana 5-0 at the weekend.
 
Going to be really, really tough tonight. I think 2-0 at their shop totally flattered us, tbh. And apart from a shambolic Leeds, I think our form has been iffy at best. This tie is not over - I think we'll be hanging on for dear life at 1-2 with five minutes to go. :emoticon-0107-sweat

Yeah I have my concerns, not as easy as some think.
 
Ideally we can get a couple of early goals and kill the game, then take the foot off the pedal and take players off on 60.
 
Inter have to score at least 3 goals to go through. Anyone know last time we conceded 3 at home?
 
1nil after half an hour then close shop and hit them on the break for another one or two after 50mins.
