da bet7: Liverpool’s trip to Qatar for the Club World Cup was a successful one but there was one key setback to note that will concern Jurgen Klopp.
da 888casino: Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain was removed from proceedings after 75 minutes due to injury and Adam Lallana took his place on the field against Flamengo.
The severity of the injury and the extent of the England international’s absence is unclear at this time but it’s unlikely to be good news during a busy period of the season.
Oxlade-Chamberlain was pictured wearing a protective boot in the aftermath of proceedings and was also using crutches, so there’s no doubt he’ll be absent for a short time at least – Klopp described the injury as a “big shadow” on the victory.
But plenty of the Reds faithful were quick to highlight the signing of Takumi Minamino as a reason for optimism at this time, suggesting he can be the replacement they need.
Meanwhile, a handful of fans alluded to the significance of the deal, highlighting Minamino’s arrival as a key transfer with Oxlade-Chamberlain likely to be sidelined.
Given the fact both players are attacking-minded midfielders with the ability to make an impact in the final-third, the impulsive reaction from these fans is completely justified.
Finally, this fan suggested that the signing of the RB Salzburg midfield could turn out to be the signing of the season.
That is a huge claim given we’re yet to see Minamino in Premier League action, but it’s clear to see the logic under present circumstances.
