Liverpool fans might have hoped that the worst of the injury crisis was behind them this season as all three senior centre-backs were ruled out for the remainder of the campaign in January.
How wrong they were, as Reds captain Jordan Henderson is reportedly set to miss the remainder of the Premier League season with a groin injury suffered in the Merseyside derby, symptomatic of the team’s plight in recent months.

Seldom has one squad suffered so many devastating injury setbacks throughout the course of a single campaign, with lengthy layoffs to summer signings Diogo Jota and Thiago also blighting the season.
A host of dejected Kopites reacted on social media to the news of Henderson’s injury woes and the general consensus wasn’t one of positivity…
