In Wednesday's win over PSV, the Reds picked up a number of injuries that will complicate team selection in the coming weeks including this weekend's visit to City.

Mark Gonzalez's injury means we will lose him for two or three weeks and Xabi Alonso will be out of action for ten days. These are in addition to injury problems with Harry Kewell, Sissoko, Stephen Warnock and Fabio Aurelio.
