“We are quite short with five key players for us not being available for us for a bit of time, but we have to continue. We don’t know [how long Partey will be out for], he’s getting a very good evolution in the injury but it’s a bit early to get a timeframe.” – Mikel Arteta

“It’s bad news for us, he’s going to be out for a while apparently. We will do everything we can to make sure he will get back healthy and ready to go again. The key concern now is to make sure he doesn’t sustain any long-term damage because he’s still young, so we’re going to do everything that is right by him.
“I can’t really share the medical details but it appears in a collision, he did something to his knee. I’d like to think he will still play this season, but it might be towards the end of the season.” – Vincent Kompany on Luca Koleosho

“Macca [Mac Allister] doesn’t look good. We will have to see day by day, we were hopeful after the game that it was not that serious. And it’s not that serious but in our period of the year, if you’re out for five days it’s 12 games pretty much.” – Jurgen Klopp
