Club upper management, almost certainly

Klopp would have been happy for him to stay, fans too - if he accepted the much reduced role. Last season made it clear he was done as a first team player for us.

Honestly 12m for an aging Henderson is a decent fee. Liverpool made the right call taking the money on offer.

At the end of the day, Henderson decided to go when he had every chance to turn them down

Unfortunately Southgate didn't get the memo.

Henderson isn't going to be a first teamer for England either. Dressing room leader and utility player in midfield, who knows his system very well, and he trusts to be of value in his final tournament.
