Another 'lost' wonderkid who might be able to help Klopp out with a transfer in January.

Things appeared to be improving for Liverpool in terms of injuries up until the beginning of December. Fans had been waiting impatiently for Luis Daz to come back, but the excitement surrounding his return to health fizzled quickly, the new fan favorite of Jürgen Klopp is now anticipated to miss a few more months due to a setback. Liverpool will surely suffer from his departure, but they can bounce back.

The club could try to find a successor for Dáz during the upcoming summer transfer window. Although Roberto Firmino's uncertain future makes it clear that Liverpool needs another attacker, their midfield may still take precedence if a signing is completed, a mistake that Liverpool most likely cannot afford to make at this time is to buy a forwards instead of a midfielder given the lack of depth in the midfield.

With all the talk around Ben Doak right now, who has looked sharp and active and even registered an assist against AC Milan in Liverpool's preseason friendlies during the World Cup, promotion from within also appears to be a possibility. Doak is the kind of attacking player Liverpool has needed, especially with D'az out injured. He is quick, agile, and very direct.

Klopp and his coaching staff will benefit much from Kaide Gordon's return to training. Gordon, who has only made sporadic appearances since the beginning of this year and is still only doing solo workouts to get back into shape, is a talented player who many people might have forgotten about due to his extended absence.

The topic of conversation at Anfield at this time

He was the topic of conversation at Anfield at this time last year, much as Doak is at the moment. Gordon made his Premier League debut against Brentford and not only played frequently in the League Cup but also scored in the FA Cup in January, becoming the second-youngest player ever to score for Liverpool in any competition after Ben Woodburn.
