Stevie has been ruled out in August and is most likely only to make his much awaited appearance in September. Apart from the nagging groin injury, he has contracted some infection and is on antibiotics and definitely needs some R&R.
Is it just me or Stevie has been getting into on slump after another- bar fights, constant injuries etc. I think Captain Marvel needs some divine intervention!
On a brighter note, Pepe is fit and raring to go after the double hernia operation and could feature against Valeranga tomorrow. We have missed him dearly!
I think Charlie Adam will fill Stevie's void and Lucas will be back to devastate the opponents in midfield!
Here are our next 5 games first 2 are Friendlies)
Transfer gossip from the LFC website
There is a long-term Anfield interest in the Glasgow-born youngster, who they tried to sign him from his first club, Hamilton, in 2009.And the Reds are ready to pounce if they sense the Latics are prepared to cash in on the Ireland international rather than risk losing him at a reduced fee.McCarthy opted for the regular-first team opportunities Wigan were offering but now, at the age of 20, he feels he is approaching the time when he should move on.Liverpool were content to maintain a mere watching brief on the midfielder, then make a more concrete move in future seasons.But McCarthy has been in talks with Wigan for more than a month over a new contract, after being promised an improvement on the deal he agreed when he joined the club.
And that has reportedly led to both Premier League clubs declaring an interest in him, although AC and Inter Milan are also said to be keen.The 18-year-old, whose full name is Lucas Rodrigues Moura da Silva, broke into the Sao Paulo team last year and has made four appearances for the Brazilian national side.But Lucas insists he is in no rush to move to Europe and says he has not yet decided on his future."I read that I have decided to go to Italy, but that isn't true," he told Brazilian newspaper Folha de Sao Paulo."At the moment my thinking is to continue and improve at Sao Paulo because I am young and need more experience before making the leap to Europe, but I haven't yet decided where I will go."

Liverpool look to have moved into pole position for South Korean striker Park Chu-Young after the player set his heart on moving to the English Premier League giants.
Park has attracted interest from Liverpool, with Reds' Director of Football Damien Comolli an admirer of the Korean star, who found the back of the net 12 times in Ligue 1 last season despite Monaco's relegation.Germans Schalke have also run the rule over Park though and are hoping to tempt the player to the Bundesliga.But Park, who joined Monaco in 2008 from FC Seoul, is thought to have set his heart on a switch to Anfield.
Park is currently under contract to AS Monaco, but does not want to drop down to Ligue 2 with the relegated French side.
Fresh reports linking Liverpool with a move for Scott Dann have emerged this morning, speculating that Kenny Dalglish could steal the Birmingham City defender away because of his current employers' dire financial situation.
Indeed, just today Arsene Wenger has made a £15 million bid for the Everton centre-back.Dann is a lifelong Liverpool fan and would understandably jump at the chance of a move to Anfield to work under Kop legend Dalglish, who is a known admirer of him.
24 year-old Dann has been an alleged target for Liverpool and Arsenal throughout this summer, though Arsenal are thought to be far more interested in the potential acquisition of Phil Jagielka.
Liverpool have stepped up their interest in Jose Enrique after Kenny Dalglish was left unhappy with his side's defensive frailties in their pre-season friendlies.
Newcastle said last night they had received no bids for the wantaway Spanish left- back but sources on Merseyside claim Dalglish is ready to wait until the transfer window is nearly closed in a bid to pick up Enrique in a cut-price deal.Enrique has hardly endeared himself to the Newcastle hierarchy this week, criticizing them for a lack of ambition. The outburst earned him a £100,000 fine.Toon boss Alan Pardew has already identified Enrique's replacement - the experienced Wayne Bridge at Manchester City.
City insist they have not received any offer from Newcastle for Bridge and they acknowledge that his £90,000-a-week wages will prove a problem.
Liverpool are watching James McCarthy's contract talks at Wigan with a keen interest.

Liverpool and Tottenham are set to go head-to-head for the signature of Sao Paulo midfielder Lucas, according to reports in Brazil.
And that has reportedly led to both Premier League clubs declaring an interest in him, although AC and Inter Milan are also said to be keen.The 18-year-old, whose full name is Lucas Rodrigues Moura da Silva, broke into the Sao Paulo team last year and has made four appearances for the Brazilian national side.But Lucas insists he is in no rush to move to Europe and says he has not yet decided on his future."I read that I have decided to go to Italy, but that isn't true," he told Brazilian newspaper Folha de Sao Paulo."At the moment my thinking is to continue and improve at Sao Paulo because I am young and need more experience before making the leap to Europe, but I haven't yet decided where I will go."
