Just when it looked like Liverpool was out of the woods a bit - to borrow an English phrase - playing decent soccer and getting out of the relegation zone, they're hit with another huge injury.
Defender Jamie Carragher will be out three months after dislocating his shoulder in Sunday's 2-1 loss at Tottenham.
After being assessed on Monday and Tuesday, the club informed the player he would have to have an operation on the problem.
Carragher told the club's official website: "I'll be having surgery at the end of the week. The average is about 12 weeks. I'd like to come back before that but I've got to make sure it's right.
"It will probably be late February or early March when I'm looking to come back. It's difficult for me when I'm injured. It hasn't happened very often, and I'm very lucky with that I suppose, but maybe it's caught up with me a little bit now.
"I've been here before with a broken leg which put me out this length of time. It's not easy but you've got to get on with it, and it makes you more determined to get back.
"I'm sure towards the end of the season when people are maybe feeling a little bit tired I'll be raring to go."
Liverpool expects to get Steven Gerrard, Joe Cole and Daniel Agger back soon which is good news for the Red Sox and new Liverpool owners Tom Warner and John Henry.
