Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish stated that, the cause of the problem after the game on Saturday, but refused to be drawn on his recovery time.

The Liverpool club doubts that the England international could be ruled out for a number of weeks, but manager Kenny Dalglish still likely his skipper to be fit for the trip to the Hawthorns.
