Arthur Melo - Edging closer to return Arthur (thigh) is "two or three" weeks away from team training, according to manager Jurgen Klopp.

Impact Arthur has been injured almost all season and doesn't figure to see time with the team anyways once healthy. He was an odd addition for Liverpool and nothing has gone right for him since the summer loan. There's a chance he ends the season with zero minutes in league play for Liverpool.

Fabio Carvalho - Dealing with minor issue Carvalho is dealing with an undisclosed issue and will miss Saturday's FA Cup match, according to manager Jurgen Klopp. "He has a little thing. Did anybody tell me that he can trai...

Impact Carvalho has a few starts under his belt this season but prior to this injury, he was staying on the bench in favor of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain. It's a work in progress for the youngster and following the addition of Cody Gakpo, it's unlikely Carvalho will see much more time this season when healthy.

Roberto Firmino - Still weeks away Firmino (calf) remains a "couple of weeks" away from a return, according to manager Jurgen Klopp.

Impact Firmino has been out since November but suffered a recurrence of his injury a couple weeks ago, so he'll need to take his recovery slow. The hope is that he'll return in February, but nothing is guaranteed with muscle injuries. Prior to injury, he was one of the only healthy forwards and upon return, he'll have competition for starting minutes.

Virgil Van Dijk - Still weeks from return Van Dijk (hamstring) remains a "couple weeks" away from returning, according to manager Jurgen Klopp.

Impact It's a proper hamstring injury for Van Dijk, who could return to light training next week, though that still keeps him out of the Feb. 4 league contest. As long as his recovery goes to plan, he should be back after that contest and in contention to start once Champions League returns at the end of the month.

Stefan Bajcetic Maquieira - Signs long-term contract Bajcetic agreed to terms on a long-term deal with Liverpool on Thursday.

Impact The club didn't announce specifics regarding the length of Bajcetic's new deal. The midfielder has made seven appearances (one start) in Premier League and Champions League action this season, recording a combined one goal on three shots (two on target), two crosses (one accurate) and three tackles (three won). While Bajcetic is unlikely to feature prominently in the starting XI, he should be in contention on a week-to-week basis.

Owen Beck - Recalled from loan stay Beck returned to Liverpool ending his loan stint with Bolton on Thursday.

Impact Beck appeared in just nine matches for Bolton this season which likely led to Liverpool's decision to recall him. Beck figures to either link up with the U21 side or find another loan spot before the January window closes.

Rhys Williams - Returns from loan stay Williams was recalled by Liverpool from his loan stint with Blackpool on Monday.

Impact Williams made 17 appearances for Blackpool this season but was an unused substitute for four of the club's last five contests which no doubt factored into the decision to recall him. The central defender will likely link up with the Liverpool U21 squad and shouldn't be expected to see many, if any, minutes with the senior side.

Alisson - Breaks clean sheet drought Alisson had two saves and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Chelsea.

Impact Alisson finally got his first clean sheet after the World Cup break, holding Chelsea scoreless on two shots. The goalkeeper has struggled behind a lackluster Liverpool defense and has fallen to some poor showings. Alisson and Liverpool as a whole will hope to build off this draw and turn around what is quickly becoming a season to forget.

Andy Robertson - Fails to create chance Robertson generated five crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Chelsea.

Impact Robertson has created just one chance in his last three appearances a rare drought for the left-back. In what is quickly becoming a lost season for Liverpool, Robertson hasn't produced anywhere near his usual standard. Still a secondary role on set-pieces and the ability to join the attack consistently makes Robertson an elite option in most formats.

James Milner - Major volume in draw Milner generated one shot (zero on goal), 11 crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Chelsea. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 66th mi...

Impact Milner peppered 11 crosses, though only one of them proved to be even slightly threatening. The midfielder actually got the start at right-back over Trent Alexander-Arnold, and had similar volume, though Milner's creativity is nowhere near that of Alexander-Arnold. Milner will likely return to the bench moving forward, though it's possible manager Jurgen Klopp prefers Milner's more pragmatic approach to right-back.

JANUARY 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Cody Gakpo - Seven shots Saturday Gakpo generated seven shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Chelsea.

Impact Gakpo absolutely peppered the Chelsea net, but was unable to get many of his shots even on goal. It was a new role for the attacker, taking over at central striker with Darwin Nunez on the bench. Gakpo is still looking for his first goal contribution in the Premier League.

JANUARY 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Mohamed Salah - Held quiet in draw Salah registered one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Chelsea.

Impact Salah failed to get much going against the Chelsea defense, struggling throughout and only shooting once. It was a tame affair from start-to-finish and Salah couldn't be the gamebreaker he has so often been. This match makes it four in a row with no goal or assist for Salah, who is sitting on just 11 goal contributions in 19 matches.

Trent Alexander-Arnold - On bench for Chelsea clash Alexander-Arnold will begin on the bench in Saturday's game versus Chelsea due to a minor muscular problem, The Athletic reports.

Impact Alexander-Arnold has been unable to practice fully throughout the week due to the issue. While he's available, he won't see full minutes in this one. James Milner is getting the start at right-back.

JANUARY 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Kostas Tsimikas - Available against Chelsea Tsimikas (back) is on the bench for Saturday's game versus Chelsea.

Impact Tsimikas hurt his back midweek, but he won't miss time, and he'll continue backing up Andrew Robertson at the left-back position.

JANUARY 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Darwin Nunez - Bench option versus Chelsea Nunez (undisclosed) will begin as a sub in Saturday's match against Chelsa.

Impact Nunez is good to go after missing the previous game, but he won't get the start. Cody Gakpo and Harvey Elliott are joining Mohamed Salah in the frontline. He has posted 16 shots (seven on target), three chances created, and two inaccurate crosses in the last three matches.
