Kirkland confirmed "Yes it's true. I cut myself shaving and am now facing three months on the sidelines". He added "we have a great medical team at Liverpool and i'm comming in everday to do some work on the injury and we are using french moisturiser which has helped as it is enriched with vitamin E". The moisturiser is believed to be the same brand as big brother scot Jason Cowes used during the duration of the channel four summer show.
Benitez added to Kirklands woe yesterday by docking him two weeks wages. He explained "I have bought the best gardener from Chelsea to mow the grass for Chris, the best umbrellas made from the finest persian materials to stop him getting wet and catching a cold and one of Wayne Rooney's £45 call girls to keep him company as we did not want his all important right hand damaged. Yet despite all this he has cut himself shaving and to say i'm dissapointed would be an understatment. He concluded "i told Chirs to take percautions with the call girl but never would have thought he would injury himself with a mach 3 razor".
The £8 million buy from Coventry, touted as the future England goalkeeper, is now recovering which has led to Polish stopper Jerzey Dudek keeping his place between the sticks despite a poor run of form.
