Horrific

Before you look at these photos, don’t look at them.

Dejan Lovren could be facing a lengthy spell on the sidelines after a horrendous-looking knee injury sustained against West Brom saw the defender stretchered off.

Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool were held 2-2 at Anfield and their defensive woes continued with the Croatian going down under a challenge from Craig Gardner.

It turns out that Divock Origi bagged the equaliser and the manager’s balls paid off somewhat but the injury was hard to look at.
