Gini Wijnaldum says Liverpool can deal with an injury to Fabinho.

The Brazilian had to be withdrawn in the first-half of Wednesday's 1-1 draw with Napoli.

He said: "It is a blow, a big blow for the whole team, of course also for him as a player but there are situations you have to deal with.

"I think during the years we have had a few blows, injuries, and we just have to show we can deal with the situation.

"We just have to show that it doesn't affect us. During the years we had some difficult injuries and difficult positions - [like] last season when we didn't have a right defender - we just have to deal with it so we will see."
