Any news on the next John Barnes? Is he still injured or just on the fringes struggling to find a way back in? On loan?
 
He got the all-clear to start the final part of rehab a month ago. Since then there was a period of gym work, and then he started proper training at Melwood about a fortnight ago, so he's close, but as usual the fitness coaches are being cautious (as it was a back injury that could cause new problems with the hamstrings, the process has been one that's involved work strengthening both areas so as to prevent any setbacks). He could feature again pretty soon.

Is it correct that he had a setback sometime in August which delayed his return by over a month? Could be also the reason why the club are being extra cautious

Absolutely right. He fell awkwardly during the American tour in pre-season and a scan showed he'd had a minor fracture of a bone in his back. So he needed to come back from that, and complete his pre-season training.
