Liverpool lost Philippe Coutinho and Dejan Lovren to hamstring injuries in the 1-0 victory in the first leg of the League Cup semi-final against Stoke City on Tuesday night.

This latest setback increased the number of hamstring injuries at the club to six, and manager Jurgen Klopp was quick to accept responsibility.

"Injuries? Yeah that's it, we will look at our training! We don't train, we only recover, that is the situation now? There is no training," he said.

"But it's no problem really. I am responsible for these things and if you want to make me responsible then it's okay.

"We have five hamstrings (Coutinho, Lovren, Martin Skrtel, Jordan Rossiter and Divock Origi with Daniel Sturridge still rehabilitating from one) and it's my responsibility but it is like it is and we have to see what we can do."
