Really?
ACL minimum 6 months but probably 9
Season over

Doesn't that only apply if it is completely snapped?
I thought there was grades of tear etc.
So a small tear would only require surgery to support it during a quicker recovery.

I wonder if Klopp will say "It's a bad day for football?"

Bad injury to a top player and they will be half the team without him.

Fucking hell, the scouse press pack are like a parody of themselves. The Athletic is virtually a Liverpool fanzine these days.

Nah, that will probably be him done for the season.

VVD is integral to their system. Their full backs won't be as effective going forward without VVD.

That's being unkind to fanzines.

At least a fanzine would not hold back on the truth.

Probably the player they could afford to lose the least. Wonder if they’ll go for a replacement in January?

And Fabinho having to vacate midfield to drop in.

That will hurt their midfield just as much.

They only do surgery for complete tears, and we know he's having surgery.
