Wish people wouldn't be so negative on here.

Noone expects Lallana to be 1st choice, but now he's injured we have a massive panic on!

Milner, Grujic, Coutinho, Woodburn can all play in that CM role

Klopp has always said that buying a player to help with an injury for a couple of months makes no sense and there really is no reason to panic.

Pre season has gone pretty well so far, better than most other teams, our squad isn't a disaster, and there's stil a month to go for the window to close and so many deals usually happen in the last couple of days/ hours anyway.

Relax people, everything is going to be alright!

Grujic and Woodburn are not ready for regular prem or CL football. We need another one in at least.

{Ed001's Note - they are perfectly capable of covering for a short term injury.}

Can, Hendo, Milner, Wijnaldum and Coutinho is plenty of established players to have in central midfield. We won't be depending on Grujic or Woodburn every game.

And also, Grujic, Woodburn or any other young player at the club are not going to become ready for regular Prem or CL football without actually playing in the Prem or CL football more than three times a season are they?

Signing another player for the sake of a couple of months without Lallana would be both a waste of money and detrimental to the development of our younger players. We're fine with what we have.

Disappointed Lallana is injured, of course he would be first choice. However it does give an opportunity for Grujic who looks class. But worried about his temperament though looks like he has a red card in him. Anyone know his record for his previous club discipline wise?

Grujic, if given time, will turn into a very good footballer and having watched him in preseason this year and last and his few other appearances I think he is very composed for such a young lad. With Lallanas' injury it will move him up the pecking order and could give him the chance he needs to show what he has.

They need games, TTA and Grujic and Kent are well ready for a game a week.
Ben being younger needs to be handled different. Great talents,
