Liverpool duo Shaqiri and Alexander-Arnold still in recovery

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp believes that his injured duo are still recovering from their knocks.

Klopp does not think Xherdan Shaqiri or Trent Alexander-Arnold will be ready to face Tottenham on Sunday.

They are close to first team action, but neither has done enough to be in contention to start or sit on the bench for this weekend's clash.

"We don't have all the players who are away, but we have all the other players as well," Klopp said to the club's official website.

"Bringing players back, step by step. OK, Shaq and Trent are still doing a bit of rehab, but the others are here and in good shape. Two sessions today and then one session a day.

"All good and we're really looking to this period now."
