Kops left to cope without Gerrard
Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard is set to miss the clash against Fulham tomorrow.
What will give coach Rafa Benitez more headaches is that apart from Gerrard, defender Glen Johnson and Italian midfielder Alberto Aquilani are also sidelined.
Benitez will also give a late fitness test to Spain striker Fernando Torres, who scored against Manchester United last weekend despite being less than 100 percent fit due to a groin injury.
Reports in England on Friday suggested Gerrard may need surgery and Benitez would not rule out the possibility.


Gunners up for a fight against Spurs
Will Spurs' Robbie Keane's comments hold true or will his digs spur on the Gunners to thrash Tottenham this weekend?
Keane, who has always worn his heart on his sleeve, claims Tottenham Hotspur now have a better squad than Arsenal.
A glance at the Premier League table shows just why this Saturday's meeting at the Emirates Stadium is so important.
Arsenal currently sit third in the standings, ahead of fourth-placed Spurs on goal difference although the Gunners have a game in hand.
But if Tottenham are to leap-frog their near neighbours this weekend, they will have to do something they haven't managed in the league since 1993 and win in Arsenal's own backyard.

Can Kimi finish with a flourish?
WILL Kimi Raikkonen be able to to end his career with Ferrari on a winning note? Will he be able to give the team and his fans something to remember at this weekend's season finale in Abu Dhabi?
Raikkonen, who makes way for Fernando Alonso next year, has as yet failed to secure himself a race seat for 2010, despite speculation continually linking him with a return to McLaren.
"It's time for me to say goodbye to the guys at Ferrari after three years together. I'm proud of the things we achieved, especially the drivers' title in 2007 and the constructors' title in the same year and in 2008," said Raikkonen.
"Let's hope we can conclude the season with something nice to be remembered, and as usual I'll give it everything to gain the best possible result."
