What did Jurgen Klopp say in the press conference regarding injury news?

Speaking in a press conference on Liverpool's official YouTube channel, Klopp said: "[Their condition is] Not great. Definitely not great. I would like to say that we have no issues, but obviously we have some. Ali, muscle injury, we don't know exactly how long it [will take], but definitely not in the foreseeable time. Then we have Diogo with a knee issue, he's ruled out. Curtis, with a bone ligament issue, ruled out. With Diogo, it will take [a few] months. With Curtis, I couldn't say, I couldn't give you a timeframe, even if I want to. "Then we have the others, where we actually think we can look at it day by day. Tomorrow, you will see the line-up early enough and you can see who made it and who didn't make it. And that's it, pretty much. Trent and Dom, they are on the way back, but they are not in team training yet. So, that means they are not available as well. That's the situation. As long as we have eleven players, we will go for it and that is exactly the idea."
