Liverpool boss Klopp coy over fitness of top trio

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was coy about his team plans for Sunday's clash with Wolves.

Mohamed Salah, Vigil van Dijk and Fabinho are all injury doubts.

Klopp said: "The rest of the boys look all good, what we do for the weekend, I don't know yet.

"Mo doesn't want to take any risks, no doubt about that but it looks good.

"My solution is they can play at the weekend or at least be on the bench. If not, we take it from there. I cannot say 100 percent."

On Joe Gomez, he added: "Joe Gomez has good news. We wanted a second scan. [It is] just a knock."

On Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard potentially helping Liverpool secure the title, Klopp said: "If I could play a game to help Dortmund or Mainz it would mean for me an extra motivation.

"But I'm not playing and Stevie isn't playing. It is a shame that Stevie is not playing more than I am not playing.

"We're all human beings. Stevie will take it seriously without me calling him or whatever. Probably the rest of the club has done already, but I didn't."
