NewsJürgen Klopp gives Alexis Mac Allister fitness update
By James Carroll at Anfield
The Argentina midfielder was left out of the Reds' Emirates FA Cup fourth-round win over Norwich City on Sunday due to a knock; however, the manager is confident he'll be able to call on his services again in midweek.
Klopp told his post-match press conference: "Alexis, I would say [if it was the] last game of the season, decider or whatever, he could have played, but in all games not.
"He felt a little bit and we just said no, no and I don't want to know more, so that's just it.
"We gave him a rest. I think he should be ready for Wednesday."
