Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konate missed training on Friday ahead of tomorrow's clash against Manchester City.

The Reds will welcome City to Anfield looking to close a 13-point gap, with Jurgen Klopp's side winning just two of their opening eight Premier League games - their worst start for a decade.

Klopp had hinted during his pre-match press conference on Friday morning he was still waiting to discover who had come through unscathed from Wednesday's win at Ibrox, and the notable absence of Konate from the session at Kirkby was one of four key takeaways, says the Liverpool Echo.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Curtis Jones continued their rehabilitation on the turf, while several of the under-21s made the step-up to work with the first-team.
