Ex-Liverpool captain Henderson, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/jordan-henderson-england-season-from-hell-ajax-saudi-pro-league-nightmare/blt3827f102f5f192a6" target="_blank">who is currently playing for Ajax</a>, was put on the spot during a post-game interview after the Dutch giants' 2-2 draw against Fortuna Sittard back in March, and was asked if he had turned in his "worst performance" for the club since his arrival. Klopp, who watched that interview, was left unimpressed with how his former player was grilled on live television.

WHAT HAPPENED?

During the pre-match press conference ahead of the Reds' Europa League clash against Atalanta, the German manager confronted a journalist and shared an awkward conversation regarding Henderson's uncomfortable interview, asking if it was him, or a colleague, who asked his former player the tough questions.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Klopp started the conversation by throwing a question towards the media personnel as he asked, "You are not the one who interviewed Jordan Henderson, are you?" To which the reporter replied, "No."The manager then continued, "Good. That was your colleague? Your friend? That was uncomfortable, eh? What a horrible interview that was."The reporter then threw a counter-question as he asked, "You didn’t like it?" To which Klopp replied, "Do you know anybody who liked it?"The reporter then said, "I spoke to him and he said ‘I regret the interview, I was a bit too hard’ and he also said it on television."Klopp concluded the conversation by saying, "Did he? Wow, ok. I can take that apology on behalf of Hendo."

WHAT HAS BEEN SAID

After facing the Serie A side in the Europa League quarter-final on Thursday, the Merseyside club will be back in action in the Premier League on Sunday as they host Crystal Palace at Anfield.
