injury in training.

Gerrard, who has been out since being injured in England's friendly with
France last month, was examined by **[Liverpool][7]**'s medical staff after
the incident and was assured his comeback remained on course.
"There is no problem with Steven," said Hodgson. "I spoke to him after
Tuesday's training and he did say he felt he had tweaked something. But the
medical people have a look at him and said it was nothing, it was only scar
tissue. It's fine and when he went back to training again he was fine. It's
not a setback to his planned comeback and he should be fine."
The club have also been boosted by the news that Jamie Carragher, expected to
be absent for three months after surgery on his dislocated shoulder,
successfully underwent surgery on the injury on Friday.
"The operation went well," said Dr Peter Brukner, Liverpool's Head of Sports
Medicine and Sports Science at Anfield. "It also confirmed this was the
correct course of action to take to ensure Jamie makes a complete recovery."
Meanwhile, Danish defender Daniel Agger has dismissed suggestions he will
leave the club next month amid claims that a number of German clubs were
monitoring his situation.

"Liverpool can't force me out even if they want to as I have four years on my
contract," Agger is reported as saying. "I expect Roy Hodgson to have the guts
to tell me face to face if he doesn't want me and he has not said that."
Liverpool have also confirmed that youngsters Dani Pacheco, 19, from Spain,
and Englishman Martin Kelly, 20, have signed new contracts to keep them at
Anfield until 2014.
