Steve McClaren admits it is a "massive, massive blow" to lose Tim Krul. His season-ending injury - suffered while on international duty with Holland in Kazakhstan - is just another headache for the Newcastle manager to deal with.

"You talk about one of our best players in the team," he said. "To lose that is devastating. We've had a couple of days to get over it. He'll recover and we wish him well. We'll certainly look after him."

Sounds like Newcastle could be a busy in the next transfer window.

"January has become a very important window for us," said manager Steve McClaren. "There's a lot of work in background and in one respect we are working towards that."

Winless in the Premier League and without a win at St James Park for five months. Steve McClaren faced the media with a mug of tea and a smile as he looks to try and get his and Newcastle's first three points of the season.

The former England manager said he won't look at the Premier League table until at least 10 games in. 

Jack Richardson: Is it me or are ACL injuries becoming much more common, don't remember there being so many in the past?  

The injury to Danny Ings leaves Divock Origi as Liverpool's only fully fit striker, with Christian Benteke still recovering from a hamstring injury and Daniel Sturridge working his way back to full fitness.

Ings previously suffered a serious knee at the start of the 2012-13 season.

It's Liverpool's second season-ending cruciate knee injury in a matter of days after Joe Gomez was sidelined with a similar injury on Wednesday.

Ings moved to Anfield in the summer after impressing in Burnley's relegation fight last season.

The news is a big blow for new Reds manager Jurgen Klopp, who must now rejig his plans for Liverpool's attack.

More breaking injury news to bring you, and it's bad news for Liverpool fans.

It looks like Danny Ings will miss the rest of the season with a cruciate ligament injury. The forward was injured in training on Tuesday - Klopp's first session in charge.

Ings had made a fine start to the season, scoring three goals and earning his first England call-up. The injury almost certainly rules him out of Euro 2016.

Ranieri on continuing their strong start against Southampton: "Now it's a new restart for us. It'll be a tough match for us and them. Southampton has a very good project. Slowly, slowly they want to arrive. We are starting a little behind but we want to achieve. The chairman is very happy. He wants us to continue to fight, enjoy and take points."

Claudio Ranieri has taken his seat...

"The international break was good for my players," the Leicester manager declares. "Many achieve Euro 2016. I will check on the condition of my players. I will check again some tomorrow." 

Ronald Koeman confirms that Shane Long picked up an ankle injury on international duty and will miss the next "two to four weeks".

The news cast doubt on his participation in Ireland's Euro 2016 play-off, which takes place over two legs in mid-November.

England have lost a couple of quick wickets late on the third day of the first Test against Pakistan in Abu Dhabi.

It's Wahab Riaz who has done the damage, getting Ian Bell caught at point for 65 and then bowling nightwatchman Mark Wood for 4.

England are now 287-3, with Joe Root joining captain Alastair Cook - who is unbeaten on 167 - at the crease.

Manager Ronald Koeman has some positive words for the new Liverpool manager.

"Jurgen Klopp has a lot of experience with Dortmund but he is a good coach and his history is positive. It is a great club to be at and they have good players."

Boss Ronald Koeman says midfielder Jordy Clasie could make his Premier League debut at the weekend.

"He needs to be 100% fit. He brings cleverness to the team and that is what we need. He is not ready for 90 minutes but he needs game time."

Manager Ronald Koeman has been reflecting on Netherlands' exit from Euro 2016 qualifying:

"We have to take it and learn. We have to give a reaction. We need to change something. I was in Holland when we had a meeting and we still don't have a footballing man in the board of the football organisation and that is crazy. 

"But that is Holland and I am happy at Southampton."

Asked if he will take the Netherlands job: "Maybe in the future."

He hasn't been out of work too long, after being sacked as Liverpool manager, but it looks like Brendan Rodgers is eager to get involved in football straightaway.

The Independent are reporting, external that the Northern Irishman has been signed up by Qatari-owned television network BeIn Sports as a pundit.

Anchor Richard Keys was asked on Twitter whether his current employers would be bringing Rodgers in, to which he replied:

Good news for Championship side Blackburn Rovers. They are one big sale away from getting out of their Financial Fair Play embargo, says managing director Derek Shaw.

The Championship club have been unable to buy players since December 2014 for not meeting the Football League's Fair Play Requirement.

"We're probably one sale away, one asset sale away from coming out of FFP," Shaw told BBC Radio Lancashire. "Which would probably be a player for under £5m."
