Klopp defends’ man with the hardest job in football’:’ A shit story’.

Klopp defends' man with the hardest job in football':' A shit story'.

Jürgen Klopp recorded it for Jordan Henderson. The leader of Liverpool has been criticised for his game in recent weeks and stayed on the bench on Wednesday during the Champions League match against Spartak Moscow (7-0). Immediately it was suggested that Henderson may also miss Sunday during the derby against Everton, but according to Klopp that is nonsense. The trainer only allowed Henderson to rest against Spartak, he says.

At the press conference prior to the Premier League duel, Klopp made it clear on Friday that’ even a captain’ cannot play every match. He wanted to keep Henderson fit for the cityby and therefore decided to keep him on the couch against Spartak,”He feels good, but I thought it was a logical decision for this game”, the Daily Mail quotes,”You need players who fully understand what a derby is all about. I just thought that people would call out again:’ Fantastic match, but Jordan Henderson didn’t play’. And then they would turn that into a shit story.

“Sorry, but these are real shit stories. I cannot change that. Give me another word for it,”Klopp asked the journalist. The German calls Henderson a’ hugely important player’ for Liverpool,”I really don’t understand why I have to say so. Leadership at Liverpool is the most difficult task in football, because Steven Gerrard was the previous man who wore the band. I want everyone to respect that Jordan is now our captain and that he is the right man for that. That does not mean that he can play every match. So there is no story.

Jordan Henderson is a good leader for Liverpool.
