I’ve said before how disappointing this was to me, probably more so than any of the others who sold their souls. I do have some sympathy though if we believe that no one made any effort to convince him he was wanted or should stay. With everything he’s done for the club and given in terms of leadership and commitment, that is quite sad.
However that is very much tempered as he still had the choice, albeit if he was told he wasn’t going to be involved as much it made leaving easier.
Just not to there, there’s no excuse for that. He could have found other interested parties if he felt unwanted. They may not have paid as much but he’d have been ok money wise.
So ultimately still not buying it Jordan, even if it is disappointing to me that he was left feeling that way by the club
Why though?
No one's told him to go. That's how EVERYONE who wants to stay, are "treated". If they're surplus, they will be told- and one thing we can agree on, is that LFC honors its valuable players- if they want to stay and run down their contracts, they can. Not ideal, but they put in a shift over the years.
Why do they need to tell him they want him to stay, when they didn't tell him, he's free to go in the first place?
He's a grown man, a senior at the club, and a "captain". Now he needs an arm around the shoulder?
That's just a sneaky way to throw Klopp and the staff under the bus, and blame them for his greed.
"Nothing bad to say about the club..".. yeah, cause you did it already!
