Liverpool's defeat to Nottingham leaves an interesting story. The reason is, the match is thought to be an indication of the disharmonious relationship between Jurgen Klopp and Jordan Henderson. Last weekend, Liverpool lost with a score of 1-0 to Nottingham in the 13th week of the 2022/2023 Premier League. In the duel held at The City Ground Stadium, the only goal was created by Taiwo Awoniyi.

The defeat was a bad result for the Reds. Because, they lost precisely when they met a team that was at the bottom of the standings. Liverpool lost to a team that was in poor form and difficult to win. The defeat of Nottingham then made another oblique issue develop. Klopp's decision to back up Henderson was one of the triggers.

Klopp did not play Henderson from the early minutes when Liverpool lost to Nottingham. The 32-year-old player was only played in the second half. In the 62nd minute, Henderson came on to replace Fabio Carvalho, who was not optimal. Paul Scholes, an English football pandit, smelled a strange sign from Klopp's decision.

"Klopp has Henderson on the bench, he should have played (from the start). Henderson is the leader in the team. He is the captain and the only player, who is of the Casemiro type, and he can get everyone enthusiastic," said Scholes. "Henderson seems to be at odds with Klopp or is injured. Something is not right there," said the Manchester United legend.

It should be recalled that a fortnight ago, in the match between Liverpool and Arsenal, Jordan Henderson was accused of allegedly saying a racist remark to Brazilian centre-back Gabriel Magalhaes, according to FA investigations. After the alleged insult, Arsenal players, led by Switzerland's Granit Xhaka, jumped up to reproach the Englishman with great vehemence.
