In an exclusive interview with Telegraph Sport, Liverpool owner John W Henry reflects on his first 10 months in English football and reveals the plans for Liverpool’s future.
You attended the opening game against Sunderland last weekend. Could you talk us through your day?
I had spent the previous day in Munich studying the Allianz Arena - a truly
magnificent accomplishment by Bayern Munich. I flew in late Friday night and
Tom, Ian and I met with our supporters committee on Saturday morning. We
were amazed at the strength and depth of the committee. It was an important
meeting covering a number of technical issues.
Richard Scudamore of the Premier League and David Bernstein of the FA were there prior to and during the match so it was an opportunity to speak with them. I’ve got to know Mr Scudamore, but it was my first time meeting Mr Bernstein. Both are very impressive and seem to be extraordinarily well-suited for their roles.
Did you go down to the dressing room?
Yes.
