Liverpool has grappled with an unusually high number of injuries throughout the current season, affecting several players more severely than initially anticipated.
Among those affected is Andy Robertson, whose absence was conspicuous during our pre-Aston Villa training session, as evidenced by images on liverpoolfc.com where the left-back was conspicuously absent.
This absence opens up an opportunity for either Kostas Tsimikas or Joe Gomez to step in, but it also raises concerns for the Scotland captain, who has already been sidelined for a total of 23 matches across all competitions for Liverpool this season.
Having made only 22 appearances, it has been an atypical season of sporadic presence for someone who has been consistently dependable in recent years.
