Felt sorry for him about the huge task of taking over from Stevie. He has now surpassed him

If he wins the EPL, arguably get a position above Steven G….. Unbelievable!!! Was immense tonight with Gomez. #LFC

Proud of him, I’ll be honest I didn’t think he quite had it when he was announced, but he’s grown into it and proved me and many others wrong. Mentality Monster

Henderson has played 1617 minutes for club and country already this season, surprisingly only scoring once and assisting twice in all 37 outings.
Henderson has been amazing again tonight and there’s still some fans who will give him stick!!

Henderson Man of the Match for me.

Is Jordan Henderson Liverpool's greatest ever captain?
Yes
No
What Do We Think?
You can always expect a solid and consistent performance from Jordan Henderson, he’ll rarely pull off any amazing trickery or score a 40-yard screamer, but he does a lot of the usually unappreciated work in the midfield. Hopefully, the 29-year-old can use this performance to continue his current solid form and also help Liverpool in their bid to become Premier League champions.
