Liverpool Injury Crisis: Isak, Becker Out

Liverpool's crucial run-in is hampered by multiple injuries with Alexander Isak returning slowly from a broken leg, Alisson Becker sidelined for a significant period following a setback, and Wataru Endo out for the season. The goalkeeper's absence removes one of Liverpool's most reliable performers in high-stakes matches.

Isak, who has been out for 100 days, has returned to training but is not fully match-ready. The manager admits it's too soon to expect him in the starting lineup, noting it will take time to regain match fitness and confidence. While described as 'much stronger, in a better place,' Liverpool will likely manage his minutes carefully to avoid recurrence.
