Liverpool Star Ruled Sidelined For Six Weeks

Brendan Rodgers has confirmed that full back Jose Enrique will be out of action for six weeks after tearing his hamstring.

Enrique was forced off during Liverpool's 3-0 win over QPR on 30th December and it was hoped that the injury would not be too serious, but ahead of the Reds trip to Mansfield at the weekend Rodgers said that this was not the case.

"He has looked fantastic in the games but it looks like he'll probably be out for up to six weeks with his hamstring.

"It's a shame because in the game he felt nothing. Sometimes you can enter the games and be tight and stiff. He felt great, and even within the game."

Rodgers will probably use Glen Johnson at left back as he has often deputized in that position.
