There was some good news on the training front for Liverpool on Tuesday as Jurgen Klopp welcomed back Mohamed Salah and a handful of others ahead of the trip to Brentford.
The return of MO
It was a day of returns for Liverpool with Mohamed Salah, Alisson, Joe Gomez and Conor Bradley all returning to the squad, while Ryan Gravenberch allayed injury fears by taking part in Tuesday’s session.
It left just Trent Alexander-Arnold as the leading concern heading into Saturday’s game having been withdrawn against Burnley due to the same knee that sidelined him for three matches only weeks ago.
The No. 66 aside, it was a good news day for Klopp when it came to having his squad bolstered as the injury list has dwindled again – just in time for an important run of games!
Of course, Salah is returning for the first time in a while so you may have to temper expectations – but let’s see!

And the hope will be Alexander-Arnold and Dominik Szoboszlai are back sooner rather than later.
Thiago (hamstring), Stefan Bajcetic (musculoskeletal), Ben Doak (MCL) and Joel Matip (ACL) are the other absentees.
