Alisson injury

The fear is that we have a history of either misrepresenting the significance of injuries or simply misdiagnosing them.

That’s just not true though is it. We get 100’s of injuries a year and what people can name one of two cases in the last how many years and create a story.
 
Not liking the sound of this. Sounds like we still have a fair bit of rehab to come. We kind of hoped he'd be back straight after the international break but that sounds increasingly unlikely:

John Achterberg has provided an update on Alisson Becker's calf injury.

The Liverpool No.1 sustained the issue in the first half of the 4-1 win over Norwich City on August 9 and was subsequently ruled out for ‘the next few weeks’ by Jürgen Klopp.
Summer signing Adrian has stepped in for Alisson and enjoyed a fairy tale start to his Reds career with the decisive save in the UEFA Super Cup success against Chelsea.
Alisson continues to work on his rehabilitation at Melwood and Achterberg anticipates a clearer idea of his potential return date after the forthcoming international break.
“Ali is good. He’s in every day for treatment and they try to improve things,” the first-team goalkeeping coach told The Athletic.
“He’s able to do some fitness work in the gym without using his leg. It’s difficult, but you have to try to look forward and be positive. You have to try to turn a negative into a positive.
“They haven’t given us a specific time he’ll be out as it’s difficult to say how quickly it will heal. That’s all with the medics. There’s an international break coming up and we’ll have to wait and see how long it takes after that.
“When something like that happens, you look at everything. Had the training load changed? The reality is that we hadn’t done anything differently in the build-up to that game. Ali felt fine. We have a rule with the goalies that if there’s any kind of issue you always have to talk.
“He actually came back in much better shape this summer than last year when we first signed him. It was all positive and that makes what happened so frustrating for everyone.”
 
"Alisson made steps, but it was a proper injury. It will still take time," Klopp today.

Doesn't sound great
 
Back doing light training. Don't think he'll be back playing before mid-October though to be honest.

 
Not sure who to blame for his injury.

Anfield turf or the Designer/Manufacturer of his boots.

Yeah based on how light that work is hes a few weeks away, at least we can dispense with the twitter conspiracy that his leg has been amputated
 
For a big burly goalie, he has slim legs. How do they support his weight?
