"Becoming a new Lallana", "Incompetent" - These Liverpool fans react as star suffers injury blow
Having joined Liverpool from Bundesliga side RB Leipzig, Naby Keita arrived ready to become a mainstay of the Reds’ first-team.
After being phased into the side by Jurgen Klopp, the 24-year-old really began to shine and offered the Reds some much-needed creativity and goal threat from midfield.
However, after pulling up with an injury in the 3-0 defeat to Barcelona, Keita’s involvement in his country’s Africa Cup of Nations this summer was in jeopardy, but was seemingly rushed into action for the tournament.

Now, Guinea have confirmed (via Foot 224) that Keita suffered shin and thigh injuries during the 1-0 defeat to Nigeria and that he has been ruled out of their game against Burundi on Sunday.
After hearing that their midfielder had fallen to a fresh injury blow, Liverpool fans took to Twitter to vent their frustrations and seemed to point the finger at Guinea’s hierarchy for failing to take care of Keita.
Indeed, many begged the question as to why the former Leipzig man was even on the trip in the first place and suggested he should have been given adequate time to recover from his injury at the Camp Nou.
Check out some of the reaction of Liverpool fans below:

Hope they lose so Naby comes back to Liverpool as soon as possible He shouldn’t have gone to the AFCON anyway. He was and is still injured and a further injury can ruin the new season for him.

Clearly Liverpool were correct in their original assessment of his injury. Guinea should be forced to pay his salary for any Liverpool pre-season, regular season he misses. They are incompetent. The club pays the player, they should have final say in eligibility and fitness.
