Liverpool fans left cursing their luck as Philippe Coutinho suffers injury

Another key Liverpool player has suffered an injury.

Jurgen Klopp is already without Sadio Mane for another month or so, after the Senegalese winger picked up a hamstring injury. Adam Lallana has yet to play this season because of a thigh injury and Nathaniel Clyne has been out of action for months with a back injury. Liverpool can now add Philippe Coutinho to the injury list, although he's unlikely to be a long-term absentee. https://twitter.com/_ChrisBascombe/status/923866874101878785 https://twitter.com/BenDinnery/status/923870999157923841 The Brazilian midfielder will miss Liverpool's match with Huddersfield Town at Anfield on Saturday. Coutinho is also a doubt for the match against Maribor in the Champions League in mid-week, and may not be available for the trip to play West Ham next Saturday. The news is the latest setback for Klopp as his team try to turn around their patchy form over the last month. Liverpool lost to Spurs 4-1 at Wembley last week, and are currently sitting in ninth place in the Premier League, 12 points behind leaders Manchester City. The injury to Coutinho may be only short-term, but it left Liverpool fans cursing their luck. https://twitter.com/ForzaLiverpooI/status/923868252417257472 https://twitter.com/JosephMusker/status/923869932798005248 https://twitter.com/JackSear/status/923869122731143168 https://twitter.com/vilsonb_/status/923867338134446080 https://twitter.com/VintageSaIah/status/923868532198211584 https://twitter.com/VintageFirmino/status/923867433974272002
