Jurgen Klopp provides fresh update on Gini Wijnaldum and Jordan Henderson fitness

The duo are sidelined with a muscle injury and a sore knee respectively and were left out of Monday’s 1-1 draw with West Ham United at the London Stadium.
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was uncertain on when the duo will return to action while speaking at a post-match interview.
Klopp told the Liverpool official website: "Gini and Hendo, both would've played and then they cannot play. That's not too cool, I don't know how long it will take.
"That's the situation, that was always clear. It's a long season and you have to deal with the situation.
"When players are in, all the players are there, then you maybe have a bit of a headache making the line-up, who wants to start, who you leave out. If you don't have them that makes line-ups easier, but it leaves you short of options.
"We had a pretty young bench tonight and two strikers, a left-back - that doesn't help in a game like this now. So it's like it is. We have to deal with situations like that.
"We got a point and it's a very positive sign, I would say, if you are disappointed about a point at West Ham. But it's still a point, and let's carry on."
