Lallana being available is fantastic news if you ask me, he's very much suited to Klopp's style,he just needs to get back to his best and he could be a useful weapon this season

Lallana expected to back for the Huddersfield game then. People will mock his injury record no doubt but his creativity has been badly missed in midfield.

Yes! Glad to have him back

If he’s proven to be fit enough over the international break then start him vs Huddersfield.

Miss his style of pressing without the ball.

Lallana and chambo if back properly, will be just the kind of luck we have been needing every season during tough winter schedule..

Henderson, Wijnaldum, Lallana will be our midfield against Huddersfield. We need a creative player in there now that Milner is out and Keita still isn't ready to start every game, same with Fabinho.

OPINION
These Liverpool fans seem pretty happy at the prospect of seeing Lallana back in action for the Reds after the international break, and you can see why. If you forget about his injury problems, Lallana is a player who has improved hugely at Anfield and most definitely brings something extra to this team. Their failure to sign Nabil Fekir this summer means they have been lacking a creative presence in the number 10 role, and Lallana can fill that gap. He is also a player who has become a facourite of manager Jurgen Klopp for his high energy and hard work in pressing from the front, and that is something else which he brings in abundance. However, it is also hard to forget those injury woes, with the former Southampton star being on the treatment table for much of the past year, and should he get injured again this season you do feel as though his days at the club are surely numbered. The Reds cannot afford to carry him any longer if that does happen.
