The length of time Kewell will be sidelined will do nothing to help him maintain his first-team spot at Anfield, with Chile winger Mark Gonzalez now having been given a work permit and likely to be boss Rafael Benitez's first choice on the left flank.Liverpool is shaping up to be the team to watch this season in the EPL, and the one where fantasy managers may find a bargain or two.
Brazilian acquisition Fabio Aurelio is able to play left-back and left-wing, adding a further obstacle upon Kewell's eventual return.
Benitez is delighted with his free transfer signing from Valencia, saying: 'Aurelio is a left full-back or a left-winger with a lot of quality.
'He can cross the ball superbly and he is maybe a better passer of the ball than Xabi Alonso.'
