Many Liverpool fans were left fuming after Thiago Alcantara was ruled out for his side’s upcoming games against Ajax and Wolves.
Manager Jurgen Klopp confirmed after yesterday’s 1-1 draw away to Brighton (cited by Anfield Edition) that the Spaniard would not feature in their next Champions League and Premier League games.

Thiago has been sidelined ever since Liverpool’s 2-2 draw against Everton back in October, where a heavy challenge from Toffees’ forward Richarlison resulted in a knee injury.
Following his £20m move from Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich in the summer, the two-time Champions League winner has only made two appearances for the Merseysiders (TransferMarkt).

As a result of this update, some supporters were incensed, with some bizarrely suggesting that he should even be sold in the summer.
