Get through these two games, in other words beat the cherries and dont lose to Fulham , then we should be getting
TAA
Slob
Kostas
Robertson
all back for the Norwich FA Cup game, then its CFC and Arsenal in the league; then Endo and Salah should return; whilst February is the anticipated return of Bajcetic and Thiago.
So to summarise, it's looking like mid February (that's 4 weeks, or 7 games) until everyone is back bar Matip who's out for the season.
Bournemouth vs Liverpool....21st Jan
Fulham vs Liverpool....24th Jan
Liverpool vs Norwich..28th Jan (likely TAA, Robertson, Slob, Kostas are back)
Liverpool Vs CFC..31st Jan
Arsenal vs Liverpool...4th Feb
Liverpool vs Burnley...10th Feb....(AFCON cups finishes 11th, Asia cup 10th)
Brentford vs Liverpool..17th Feb..( Salah, Endo back, Thiago, Bajcetic back..likely)
Salah Endo could be back a lot earlier, both Egypt and Japan are not doing as well as expected; Egypt will be sweating if Cape Verde beat them as they may go out of the competition as early as Monday 22nd jan. Japan are 2nd but could drop to 3rd in their group and be out depending on their next and last group game).
If you look at the games, the stand out one is Arsenal away...obvs we are not at Anfield, and Anfield is a fortress even with our injuries. After Arsenal pretty much everyone should be back.
Bournemouth and Fulham.

Need Salah back for that Arsenal game especially. Is Salah fit? Fingers crossed Cape Verde smash Egypt.

Egypt cam still go through if they are one of the best 3rd placed teams.

That's why I want them to lose so there's little chance of that as possible.
Only problem is, Cape Verde are through to the next round already. Egypt will whoop them something like 4-1 and then go all the way to the final. So close yet so far.
