Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher believes that Mohamed Salah is the man to give Liverpool the edge in the Premier League title race over Manchester City.
Liverpool injury scare as Roberto Firmino 'misses training' ahead of Man City test
09.04.2022 - 16:45 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Roberto Firmino has dealt Liverpool a late selection concern for the impending Premier League contest with title rivals Manchester City. The 30-year-old came off the bench for the Reds during the Champions League win against Benfica on Tuesday night.
However, as attentions focus on the big one at the Etihad Stadium, the Brazil striker was not spotted at Kirkby on Friday as Jurgen Klopp and his squad held their latest pre-match training session. That has thrown up fears over his availability for Sunday afternoon (4.30pm).
During his press conference, the charismatic German coach suggested that Liverpool have no injuries. He also said that teammate Fabinho would be 'fine' and available for selection despite him suffering a nasty clash of heads with former City man Nicolas Otamendi.

Otamendi was part of the Benfica side that went down 3-1 against the Reds. Assessing the condition of his squad, Klopp said: "When I looked last time on my smartphone, it looked like everyone is available again."
However, it appears as though Liverpool might have been handed a blow after the managers spoke to the media. Firmino has scored nine goals in 28 appearances this season.
The 55-cap international has not been a guaranteed starter, though, as he contends with Diogo Jota's emergence and the January arrival of Colombian starlet Luis Diaz from Porto. Firmino has missed parts of the campaign due to hamstring and muscular injuries.
