Photos: All smiles in training as attention turns to Crystal Palace

Liverpool FC

Liverpool’s squad were in good spirits during training on Tuesday morning as the Reds focus on this weekend’s clash against Crystal Palace.

Whilst Jurgen Klopp’s side had suffered two defeats on the trot to start 2019, a hard-fought 1-0 win against Brighton saw them return to winning ways.

The Reds next welcome Roy Hodgson’s side to Anfield on Saturday, hoping they can consolidate their four point lead at the top of the Premier League table.

The manager and his coaching staff put the Reds through their paces at Melwood, with the players undertaking both a recovery and tactical session.

Trent Alexander-Arnold and Gini Wijnaldum were both missing from training after suffering knocks against the Seagulls on Saturday, with the former ruled out for up to a month.

Wijnaldum is a major doubt for this weekend’s clash, but his injury is believed to be less severe and he could make a swift return.

The rest of the squad were all involved in training, including the likes of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane – all of whom should start as expected against Palace.

Rhian Brewster was also pictured as he looks to step up his rehabilitation, whilst youngsters Ki-Jana Hoever, Curtis Jones and U18s goalkeeper Vitezslav Jaros were also present.
