Liverpool FC boss Brendan Rodgers has given an update on the fitness of midfielders Steven Gerrard and Jordan Henderson tonight.

On the skipper, Rodgers said: "Steven is, as reported, probably going to be up to about four weeks or so.

"So he'll go through an extensive treatment programme over the next numbers of weeks and hopefully we can get him back that little bit sooner.

"But certainly at this stage, it was a four to six-week injury and we'll see how we look with that."

And on Henderson the manager said: "Jordan trained so he's fine. It was just precautionary the last few days.

"It was a bad challenge that was made on him, but thankfully he's okay. But we'll see how he is tomorrow as well."

Gerrard limped off early in the second half of Saturday's 4-1 win over West Ham and Henderson sustained bruising to his ankle after a reckless challenge from Kevin Nolan which saw the Hammers man given a straight red card.
