ALISSON NEWS

Training ahead of opener Alisson (undisclosed) was pictured in training Thursday ahead of Saturday's trip to Fulham.

He's coming off an incredible 20 clean sheets last season, something that will be hard to attain even with more time expected for Ibrahima Konate, as he takes up a bigger role on the back line.

Impact The fact that Alisson will be ready for the start of the Premier League season is no doubt a bigger deal for fantasy players than if he was an option in the Community Shield.

Impact This doesn't seem like a major worry, but Klopp wasn't too descriptive in describing the injury for Alisson. For now, it's not expected he'll miss the opening match of the season in three weeks, but it's still something to keep an eye on as Liverpool continue their pre-season tour.
