Impact Jones has been relegated to a bench role largely, but he once again showed how good he can be when given a chance.

Cody Gakpo - Nets again Gakpo scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 victory versus Brighton.

Impact Konate left Saturday's win over Brighton due to an injury, but the center-back will be available for Tuesday's marquee matchup against the reigning Bundesliga champions.

Ibrahima Konate - Off at half Konate was forced off the field due to injury in the 46th minute of Saturday's match against Brighton.

Impact Chiesa being sidelined until after the international break isn't a surprising update, but it's a disappointing one for the Reds. The winger has struggled with general fitness and an undisclosed issue since joining late in the window. With Cody Gakpo in flying form there's less concern for depth on the wings, but Chiesa should still see chances when fit. Mohamed Salah is, of course, the top choice right wing.

Diogo Jota - Out another few weeks Jota (upper body) is expected to miss out until after the international break, according to manager Arne Slot. "Conor is training with us again so he could maybe be in the squad to...

Impact Jota will need quite a bit more time before he is ready to take the field again, as the forward is expected to be out until after the November international break, leaving him out around another three weeks. The club will hope for no setbacks and to have him as an option to face Southampton on Nov. 24, as he is a regular starter when fit, starting in eight of his nine appearances before the injury.

Impact Bradley looks to be an option for Wednesday's match, with the defender having returned to training this week after missing their last three matches due to undisclosed issues. However, he will still need to face a fitness test ahead of the match, with that deciding if he is an option to face Brighton. Even if he is in the squad, he will probably only be on the bench, having yet to start in five appearances.
