“It is good that he is back,” the Liverpool boss told the Reds media team. “He loves playing football. Being injured is for him tough, tough, tough.
“It was not an injury where it was painful every day or whatever, he was just not allowed to train properly, how it is with muscle injuries.
“So, that’s the reason why we had to be careful in his rehab, because if you would have asked Dom, he could have trained completely with the team for two or three weeks. But all the medical advice told us no, we have to wait. And that’s what we did.
