Jordan Henderson is a legend at Anfield, where he won everything with the Reds, capping an era of sustained success for Liverpool. Henderson led by example on the pitch, always running and never giving up, inspiring teammates to give their all and winning the admiration of both teammates and supporters.
Jordan Henderson has been embroiled in a number of controversies since signing with Arab football. His first controversy began with the LGBT community upon his arrival, as homosexuality is illegal in Arabia and carries a death sentence. As a result, Hendo lost a great deal of credibility and respect from many fans, and his departure caused confusion at Anfield.
He went from being a beloved star in the Premier League to being jeered at Wembley, so it appears that his career has taken a sharp turn for the worse. Moreover, Hendo’s team is struggling—Al Ettifaq is currently in sixth place—and the supporters have stopped showing up to support the team, as evidenced by the dismal attendance at their stadium. Henderson’s decision to leave Anfield does not appear to have been the best one, which is undoubtedly putting the player in a rut where he will need to be very focused in order to leave—he has a contract that runs until 2026—and this situation does not appear to be improving—instead, it appears to be getting worse—as evidenced by the fact that during his most recent game, he displayed an attitude that was unrecognisable as Hendo.
Change might be quite costly for him.
In the most recent game between Al Ettifaq and Al Nassr, where the team captained by Steven Gerrard lost to Cristiano Ronaldo’s team, Jordan Henderson stood out for all the wrong reasons. First, after his teammate Ali Hazzazi was sent off, Hendo should have pushed Octavio of Al Nassr with his shoulder twice. The Portuguese player then went back to the ground. In the second instance, Henderson did so twice more, showing attitudes that the Anfield team had never witnessed before. As a result, Hendo may be suspended for starting a fight.
