I think we've had this discussion venue on gabriel. Players want to play these matches. It's not easy to tell Saliba not to play against liverpool, especially when you don't know how bad it is - in many cases only the player knows.

We’re going be playing nearly 60 games this season and he’s one of our best players. If he’s not right, don’t start him. That’s strong management, not letting the player (who will be inclined to underplay the severity as you say) self-diagnose. Something also amiss with the physio which concerns me.
Think we are overplaying this a bit, all doctors depend on patients to explain symptoms. If patient says it doesn't hurt, how should it be diagnosed (unless it a clean break or visible externally)? Get your concerns, but might be overblown a bit - these things happen. Hope saliba will be alright.
