Available to senior team Justin (knee) could be an option off the bench Saturday against Burnley, according to manager Brendan Rodgers.

Impact Justin is a nice boost to the squad, but it's hard to see him being ready to start in the next week or two. His first appearance in a year came last week with the U23s in which he only went 45 minutes, which likely means he's weeks away from a full 90 with the senior squad.

Plays first half with U23s Justin (knee) played the first half in last weekend's match with the club's U23s.

Impact Justin is likely set for another appearance with the U23s, as he's been out for about a year and can't be thrown into the senior team right away. He's getting back his fitness and if all goes well, he could be ready to start for the senior team following the next international break.

Set for minutes next week Justin (knee) is set to play with the development squad next week and could be available to the senior squad shortly, according to manager Brendan Rodgers.

Impact While this is a positive update on Justin, he hasn't played in close to a year, so he's going to need time. If all goes well, he'll make the bench in an upcoming contest, but it's hard to see him starting before the international break.

Struggling to return to fitness Justin (knee) remains without a return date despite training the last couple weeks, according to manager Brendan Rodgers. "It'll be a little bit of time. He's a player that's off a...

Impact It's unknown if something else happened to Justin in recent weeks, but it looks like he'll be out until the New Year. This isn't overly surprising, though he was thought to be playing with the U23s last month, so he may have had some kind of setback if not new injury.

Unlikely to play Sunday Justin (knee) is doubtful for Sunday's clash with Aston Villa despite having returned to training. Manager Brendan Rodgers told reporters, "Youri's back in training. James Justin i...

Impact Justin has yet to get onto the pitch this season but appears to be trending in the right direction. Given his lengthy absence, the defender may have to make an appearance or two off the bench before he retakes his spot in the starting XI.

Expected to feature for U23 side Justin (knee) will play for the U23 squad in the coming weeks as part of his recovery. Manager Brendan Rodgers told reporters, "JJ looks like he's never been away, but we just have...

Impact Justin has yet to get onto the pitch this season but appears to be trending in the right direction. Given his extended layoff, the defender will likely be eased back onto the pitch with some substitute appearances before getting a crack at the starting XI. Once fully fit, Justin should offer solid fantasy value given his ability to push the attack from the backline.

Still another month away Justin (ACL) is still about four-to-five weeks away from a possible return, according to manager Brendan Rodgers. "He's been working so hard, morning noon and into the evenings as...

Impact Justin's timeline hasn't changed, which is usually good news. Once back on the pitch, he'll then need to get back to match fitness and from there, he'll be ready to start. Given that process, he probably won't be an option to start until November and that's if all goes to plan.

Hoping to return in October Justin (ACL) is progressing and hopes to return to the pitch by October or November, according to manager Brendan Rodgers. "He looks great. He just needs that little bit of time. T...

Impact Justin tore his ACL in February, so this timeline is about right for a possible return. However, as with any ACL injury, he'll need to take his return slow, meaning he may not see regular minutes until the new year. Until then, Timothy Castagne, Luke Thomas and Ricardo Pereira can all be used on the flanks.
