Salah brace sends Liverpool top after bad-tempered Merseyside derby win over Everton
Mohamed Salah was back to his best for Liverpool, scoring twice as the Reds climbed to the top of the Premier League table with a win over neighbours Everton
The Reds defender sustained a dislocated shoulder as a result of the incident between Robertson and Simon.
Without surgery, the Scotsman could have made a comeback in four weeks, however, Liverpool decided to have the issue surgically fixed instead, reducing the likelihood that it would happen again.
During the Friday afternoon press conference prior to the Everton game, Klopp said, "I think we go towards surgery.
"There is a little chance we could try without but talking to pretty much all experts it looks like surgery will be the best thing, particularly in the long term and that means he is out for a while.
"In my experience, you can train pretty quickly again but not football-specific so he will be out for a while."
Liverpool will be without the Scottish defender till next year and will be replaced by Timikas for their clash against Everton.
