Having Salah, Mane and Keita not playing internationals until November is great news.
The first two need to avoid fatigue as the season goes on and getting Keita back to his fittest and freshest is also vital.

This is a hugely positive piece of news for anyone of a Liverpool persuasion, especially in the cases of Salah and Mane.
The two attackers are so vital to everything the Reds can achieve this season and they need to be fresh at the back-end of the campaign.
Having the luxury to rest up and not be exerting themselves on international duty can only be a good thing.
The hope is that Keita will also continue his comeback from injury, getting as fit as possible in the autumn,
He could a massive figure for Liverpool this season and a lack of Guinea commitments should help.
