Anfield Watch Verdict

We won't lie, we are gutted that Salah, Mane and Keita won't be available for Liverpool this month.

The Reds' depth will be tested in the coming weeks.

But, we do wish Salah, Mane and Keita all the best for the Africa Cup of Nations. It is every players dream to represent their nation at a major tournament.
