A number of Liverpool fans have been reacting to the news that Jack Grealish will miss this weekend's Premier League clash with Aston Villa.

The Reds face a must-win game in the top-four battle on Saturday afternoon, with Dean Smith's men making the trip to Merseyside.

Jurgen Klopp's side currently sit just three points adrift of fourth-place West Ham, with the likes of Chelsea, Tottenham and Everton also in the mix.

Villa are another team who have a chance of qualifying for the Champions League, though, having enjoyed a strong 2020/21 campaign to date.

Much of that has been down to the brilliance of the influential £54million-rated Grealish, with the England international scoring six goals and registering ten assists.

The 25-year-old been ruled out of Saturday's match as Dean Smith revealed he has suffered a setback in his recovery from injury, acting as a huge boost for Liverpool.
