Hodgson ponders Liverpool debut tonight for Poulsen

Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson is unsure about playing Christian Poulsen tonight against Trabzonspor.

Hodgson admits the Denmark international is not fully fit.

He said: "He's in the squad. I haven't picked the team yet, but he's in the squad and there's a chance he'll appear tomorrow.

"We'll only find out when he plays if he's fit. He's only played 20-25 minutes in a friendly match for Juventus.

"He's done a lot of physical training so in that respect he's right up there with the rest of the players, but he hasn't played a lot of football and so is not match fit."
