Night and day between the quality of the clubs official videos and Hendoâs own.
Well made videos. Good on Liverpool.
Enough for me to say Hendoâs a hypocrite. Heâs done the move after serving his time and heâs been a great captain. Hope the next long term captain we get is someone equally good in leadership and other qualities as well.
Congrats Hendo for a great LFC career and your end of career payoff.
The graphics budget money is being overspent. Come on John. Do better
We had Arthur eating up into the wagebill as well.
Yeah I knew Klopp was lying when he called Keita a legend.
Haha I now canât listen to any of these videos without thinking of them as some sort of parody off a comedy tv show or movieâŚmaybe SNL (Oh god! what have I done??). Slow, soft piano, trying to make something super emotional, when in fact a player (I would definitely call him a club legend based on his involvement in this clubâs turnaround) has decided to leave the club to take ÂŁ350k/wk tax-free and tossed his moral code in a skipfire. At the last moment. Because otherwise we could have and would have given him a proper send-off at Anfield.
For me he is a club legend, heâs sometimes had a very rough ride with the fans which is why many/most wonât see him as a legend, but I also think all these videos are pretty corny. I guess they are playing these goodbyes through the media to try and quell the overriding sense from fans that he has left on bad terms? If not, hasnât Klopp and all those players in the video heard of Facebook messenger or Skype? Pick up the phone and say your goodbyes personally.
One day possibly when the Saudi wave has truly set in and football fans have lost all hope that football can be free of nation-state white washing, Henderson can come back to Anfield and have a proper send off, maybe in a preseason game.
I suspect we may miss Hendo off the field than on it. 12 years here, and captain, he knows the club, the fans, the demands etc. He was a leader. I donât expect new players to get all of that straight off and someone else will need to step up to that leadership role.
Thinking about Milner moving on may also be a little detrimental in that department.
Still nothing lasts for ever and there are opportunities for others now.
Milner and Henderson have set that example for the current players. The current lot will know whatâs expected of them. Klopp likes a closely knitted bunch and heâs likely identified who can keep the standards up. Virgil can do the job for 2-3 years before Trent steps up to the plate.
Sure, but it takes a certain personality to take up that batten. Weâll see.
Virgil , Mo , Robbo , Dominik all national team captains in there. Then weâve got Allisson whoâs a very good leader in terms of defensive organization etc (the keeper basically commands his area).
Plenty of candidates there even if itâs way too early for Dominik.
And Liverpool almost always take a no dickheads policy when it comes to footballers in the team. Sakho was the only recent exception to the rule but he wasnât signed under Jurgen and Klopp flogged him off at the earliest.
Thanks for the great memories, Hendo. Itâs a real pity that an otherwise untainted legacy of you as a genuine club legend has now been tarnished by your association with this murderous regime.
I wish you the best of luck. Youâll need it as you have proven on this occasion that your judgment isnât always great. Hopefully youâll soon recognize how wrong you were to make this move. The club will move on after a difficult initial spell, but you? Good luck with your mate Gerrard and other desert animals youâll find there.
Bye.
And now his watch is ended.
You could have had to most beautiful and inspiring story arc here, finishing as a legend, yet you chose to betray your fake morals and take the money.
Fuck off you hypocritical sportwashing PR prick.
Ettifaq off!

Next up Steven Gerrard, the Einstein of football
How dare you come on our forum and make a sensible post. Pffft!!!
They couldâve at least proof checked their spellingâŚâchallangesâ, âisnpiresââŚthought these wanted to bring a new audience and show how serious they were?
