Liverpool boss, Jürgen Klopp admits he's facing a defensive headache, ahead of Sunday's Premier League opener against West Ham.
Joel Matip and Ragnar Klavan both picked up knocks in The Reds' 5-nil friendly win over Napoli at the weekend.

Meanwhile, Dejan Lovren will only report back from his post-World Cup holiday later today, and is unlikely to become match-fit in time for Sunday's game.
This would leave Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez as their only available senior centre-backs.
Meanwhile, Klopp says he has yet to settle on his starting-11 for West Ham.
He'll have a better idea after their friendly against Torino on Wednesday.
