Lallana and Sturridge back in training


Since August and spent part of his recuperation time in America with the Boston Red Sox over Christmas. "Daniel Sturridge is back and working well but obviously not ready to play as of yet," said Rodgers. "But he is working well and hopefully in the near future he'll be ready. "Time will tell (when he can return). We just want him fit and there is no timeline on that. He is working hard and he's back into the final stages of his rehab here at the club."


 
And Rodgers has been further boosted by the news that midfielder Adam Lallana has return to training ahead of schedule. The former Southampton star was expected to be out for a month with a thigh injury picked up against Leicester on New Year's Day but he, and captain Steven Gerrard, will be fit for next week's Capital One Cup semi-final against Chelsea. "Adam is ahead of schedule in terms of his rehabilitation and we are hoping he can join the group tomorrow to train," said Rodgers. "If he is not available for the weekend he certainly will be by Chelsea. He was playing very well before the injury and had settled into the club very well. He will get better as his time progresses at the club."

Chelsea won't sign new players - Jose Mourinho

Chelsea will make no signings in the January transfer window, says manager Jose Mourinho. The team has enough capable and balanced players to even out in the coming competitions. The Blues have six matches before January 1, with the first starting today against Hull City. Mourinho plans to rest his senior players for this Yuletide season, saying he is doubtful any one player should appear in all the six matches. The manager has granted his European-based players a two-day 'holiday' to rest and 'have a nice dinner with their families'.
