Right I’m going to share this and you can take this as 100% legit inside info, but you’ve no chance of knowing where I got it.
Yesterday afternoon I got a message Jordan Henderson sent the prem captains. Again, I know how legit this is, it’s not friend of a friend stuff.
Players were talking about striking.
Henderson came back to them and said Liverpool’s players had discussed it, gotten advice from their lawyers and “our contracts are airtight, we’re handcuffed here”
Not only does that give you info into mindset of players, but it means Liverpool had known this was coming for years and worded contracts in such a way that players were contracted to play in this.
Make of that what you will.
