Jurgen Klopp provides injury update on Henderson and Wijnladum

Liverpool midfielders Jordan Henderson and Georginio Wijnaldum might not be fit to face Bournemouth, Jurgen Klopp has said.

The duo missed the 1-1 draw with West Ham, with Hendo struggling with a muscle injury and Gini a sore knee.

Their importance to the side might have been highlighted by Liverpool’s inability to cut through Manuel Pellegrini’s congested midfield on Monday evening.

“Gini and Hendo, both would’ve played and then they cannot play. That’s not too cool, I don’t know how long it will take,” the boss told Liverpoolfc.com.

“That’s the situation, that was always clear. It’s a long season and you have to deal with the situation.

“When players are in, all the players are there, then you maybe have a bit of a headache making the line-up, who wants to start, who you leave out. If you don’t have them that makes line-ups easier, but it leaves you short of options.

“We had a pretty young bench tonight and two strikers, a left-back – that doesn’t help in a game like this now. So it’s like it is. We have to deal with situations like that.

“We got a point and it’s a very positive sign, I would say, if you are disappointed about a point at West Ham. But it’s still a point, and let’s carry on.”
