Liverpool's manager, Arne Slot, has given fans an update on the state of Joe Gómez after the Defond had to be replaced only eight minutes in the defeat of Sunday's FA Cup against Plymouth Argyle.
The English received duties from the Captain for the contest in the park of origin, since it has just returned from a spell on the margin after a problem of the sustained lounge against West Ham at the end of December.
However, it lasted only a fraction of the fourth round clash and will now face an anxious wait to discover the reach of its last setback.
Fans were naturally worried and asked the head of the Reds about the situation after the 1-0 defeat of their team.
He said: 'I'm not sure. I am not very sure of whether it was the same leg, but I have not had time to ask.
“It was clear, I think we all know when he felt a little insecure for (that) because he did not run completely again. Then he said:” I'm not 100 % sure and I'm afraid if I make an additional sprint will go wrong. “

Liverpool's manager Arne Slot has given fans an update on the state of Joe Gómez
'He is not torn, I suppose, but he didn't feel well for him. That was a bit difficult because Curtis Jones was in the bank, but came to me this morning and said: “I don't think he is completely recovered” also after yesterday's training session.
“Suddenly he led to the fact that we were with some more young people in the field than the idea before the game, but there was still enough quality in the field to get a better result than this.”
'The result is obvious, it is a great disappointment, and the way we played (there) was not much to be happy too. The only thing I was happy is that the children continued to fight for 100 minutes. ”
Gomez was replaced by the young right side Isaac Mabaya, who has suffered a difficult time with injuries during the last year. The 20 -year -old became the fourth graduate of the Academy to debut under slot.
Going to an already youthful alignment, the change forced James McConnell to the center of the field, while Wataru Endo fell in the center of a center to join Jarell Quanseh and Kostas Tsimikas in the background.

The withdrawal of Gomez acts as a great blow to the current oldest senior player in Liverpool, who seemed visibly dejected while leaving the countryside, in his first appearance since he returned from an absence of six weeks.
It seems that Alexander-Arnold will join Trent in the treatment table, although the problem of the ViceCapitan thigh is less severe than he originally thought, which means that it could be available for the Merseyside derby on Wednesday.
The slot chose to rest a large number of players from the first team for the trip to Devon, with people like Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk, Ryan Gravenberch, Dominik Szoboszlai and Ibrahima Konate, all left out of the squad to allow them to rest for the Everton clash .
