I'm not so sure. Klopp clearly has faith in players with the right attitudes, who are willing to listen, adapt and work hard, and therefore may feel he deserves an opportunity to prove himself in a new role. One which places less physical demands on his on-going ankle complaints. This is a player who has bounced back under two previous managers impressively.
I don't see him flourishing in this new role either. Henderson's a passionate grafter more so than a collected, composed thinker on the pitch, and that's why I can't see any other explanation of why Klopp would think this was a good idea. Regardless of the reason why Henderson finds himself deeper it's pretty clear that it's going to require a lot of training ground work to get it functioning how it should. He's only part of the problem. A midfield of Wijnaldum, Henderson and Lallana are, judging on previous years, all being played in new positions. Combine that with Milner at LB, Firmino at striker and Sturridge slightly wider or benched and, at best you can say it's confused.
