Jurgen Klopp acknowledges that Liverpool is grappling with a challenging situation due to the current injury woes at left-back.

Liverpool has been missing their primary left-back, Andrew Robertson, since mid-October. The Scotland international had to undergo surgery for a shoulder injury sustained during international duty.

Kostas Tsimikas, who stepped up in Andrew Robertson’s absence, is facing an extended period on the sidelines with a broken collarbone suffered during Liverpool’s draw with Arsenal.

Jurgen Klopp, speaking ahead of Liverpool’s Boxing Day clash with Burnley, expressed the challenge of not having any fit natural left-backs available, making the situation “really tough” for the team.

Klopp raised questions about the lineup, considering if Joey Gomez can play consistently until Robertson’s return.

With Kostas Tsimikas ruled out for an extended period due to a broken collarbone, Jurgen Klopp acknowledges the challenging situation and the need to find a suitable replacement.

Klopp emphasizes the difficulty of dealing with injuries, particularly those with long recovery times, such as broken collarbones.

Considering the options, Klopp mentions Joey Gomez, who replaced Tsimikas during the draw with Arsenal, as a potential replacement.

Klopp stresses the importance of managing Gomez’s fitness carefully to ensure he is ready for upcoming games.
