I think the last game of the season against Brentford, the people in the city know how much it meant to Hendo also,ā€ Salah said.ā€œBeing captain of the club for 12 years, more than me, more than Virg [van Dijk], more than Robbo, more than anyone. He didn’t get the send off or farewell that he deserves because he left immediately.ā€ What is your all-time favourite Mohamed Salah moment at Liverpool? ⚽ Credit: Liverpool FC/Getty Images ā€œI don’t know the club will manage it, I have no plan and I don’t know how the supporters will manage it, but I really wish they do something special for him, because he’s been one of the best players in this club and without him, I’ve been there in the dressing room, without him we wouldn’t achieve what we achieved.

He’s going to be there. I really wish the club could do something for him and the fans also can do something special for him, because this is Liverpool and we do it this way.ā€Ordinarily, there would be little chance of the club itself honouring a former player in such circumstances, but, whatever the nature of his exit, Henderson deserved his moment with the Kop, and with Salah yielding the influence he does, it would be no surprise to see the Brentford man take centre stage at some point during the day.
