Bobby Clark - Appears againClark came off the bench in the second half of Sunday's 1-0 win over Chelsea in the Carabao Cup final.
ImpactClark has now appeared in five of the last seven matches and seemingly will be a first-team depth option with all the injuries in the Liverpool attack. Once some other attackers are fit, Clark will likely be sent back down to the youth teams, with more time to work on his development.

Chelsea looks to respond to Neville's "bottle jobs" taunt by staying on course in FA Cup

Ryan Gravenberch - Avoids broken boneGravenberch (ankle) underwent testing following him being stretchered off during Sunday's Carabao Cup final against Chelsea, with manager Jurgen Klopp telling reporters, "I hope it...
ImpactGravenberch's situation is still not good but looks to be better than when he first went down with the issue, as he has confirmed to have not broken his foot or ankle as many assumed following the nasty tackle by Moises Caicedo. However, he is still dealing with what could be a major injury, as it was still proved that he has damage within his ligaments. The midfielder will still have to receive further testing once back in Liverpool, which will give more information and possibly a timeline for his return, as the club will hope for only a short time away from the team, with them being very limited in the midfield due to plethora of injuries.

Wataru Endo - Leaves stadium on crutchesEndo was spotted leaving the stadium on crutches and in a protective boot following Sunday's 1-0 win over Chelsea in the Carabao Cup, per James Pearce of The Athletic.
ImpactEndo looks to be heading for some time on the sidelines, appearing to have picked up a somewhat serious injury to his foot. This could be a significant loss for the club, as he has started in the past 10 contests he has been available for. The team is also very limited in midfield options, as they are already without Curtis Jones (ankle), Dominik Szoboszlai (hamstring), Thiago Alcantara (strain) and the newly injured Ryan GravenBerch (ankle). Although, a couple of those options do have a chance of returning soon. Liverpool will now hope Endo's tests only show a minor issue, looking for a short absence from play, with his replacement still up in the air if he does miss any time, as the club will have to wait to see who is healthy for the weekend, or they may require a formation change with no other options in the midfield.
