Liverpool fans have blasted the club’s owners after reacting angrily to their deadline-day pursuit of Juventus midfielder Arthur Melo.
Captain Jordan Henderson came off injured in the 71st minute of Wednesday night’s 2-1 win against Newcastle, with Jurgen Klopp confirming his skipper picked up a knock.
The Reds manager said: ‘Obviously Hendo is injured, he got a hamstring [injury], which is absolutely not helpful. I don’t think so. [It was] that serious that he couldn’t carry on, so it was no tactical change.’

The club reacted to their midfield injury crisis – Thiago, Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are also out – with a deadline-day pursuit of Arthur, but fans are not happy
When asked if the club would do any business on deadline day, the German added: ‘I don’t think so, but as long as there is time we should not close the door completely.’
Fellow midfielders Thiago, Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are also injured, leaving only Fabinho, teenager Harvey Elliott, 36-year-old veteran James Milner and Curtis Jones, who has not played a single league minute this year, as options.
But supporters have been left furious by the ‘useless’ FSG owners chasing the Brazilian, labelling him a ‘backwards pass merchant’.
One said: ‘Useless. They had 3 months and they pull out Arthur Melo on a loan. INCOMPETENT T**TS.’
Another added: ‘I thought he was s***e? Bizarre move this.’
And Reds fans quickly went online to express their displeasure with the deadline-day pursuit
A third posted: ‘Sideways and backwards pass merchant. God help us.’
A different fan continued: ‘All the midfielders we’ve been linked with and this is the ‘right’ one? Reeks of a panic loan because Hendo got injured last night.’
Another said: ‘Jeez, we just hit bottom of the barrel.’
A sixth posted: ‘Please be the location and actually going to Everton. PLEASE.’
