The Swiss defender made just his second Liverpool appearance of the season against Millwall on Tuesday and there has been much debate about his future at the club in recent weeks.
He acknowledges that it may be in his best interests to leave when the transfer window reopens in January but points out that things could change before then.
"There is another two months before Christmas but if I don't play in that time I need to seek another option. My contract runs out next June so in January I would probably join another club on a free transfer," says Henchoz.
"The next two months will be crucial. Players can get injured or lose their form and who knows I might win my place back in the team.
"You are always disappointed when you are not playing. When you are a footballer you want to start every game. But you have to respect the manager's decision and make sure you give everything in training."
I like Henchoz's attitude ! Top Pro !
Who say no player is loyalty ?
