Jordan Henderson

Some accolade this!

 

Flamengo manager Jorge Jesus has lauded Jordan Henderson by describing the Liverpool captain as the best midfielder in the world. 

Jesus saw Henderson up close when Liverpool defeated Jesus' Flamengo side 1-0 in the Club World Cup final. 

The Reds needed extra time to be crowned world champions with Roberto Firmino scoring the winning goal in the 99th minute during the December fixture.

Despite Firmino's goalscoring exploits, it was Henderson who stole the attention of Jesus which has led to the Flamengo manager's praise. 

Jesus told CMTV: 'Henderson is the best midfielder in the world in his position.

'[Jurgen Klopp] never drops him, but the two offensive midfielders, [Naby] Keita and [Georginio] Wijnaldum, sometimes are replaced.

'The others players are always the same.'

Henderson looks set to become the first Liverpool captain to lift the Premier League title this season as Jurgen Klopp's side are 13 points clear of second-placed Leicester with a game in hand. 

The 29-year-old is also a key member of Gareth Southgate's England side and is likely to start for the Three Lions next summer during the European Championship.

Henderson's Liverpool face a tricky trip to face Jose Mourinho's Tottenham on Saturday and then host rivals Manchester United next Sunday as they continue their quest to win their first Premier League title.

Apparently this fella has not seen us play much over the last year to not realize Fabinho has been in that role pretty much every game.

The clean sheets started this season when Henderson went there though!

Harry Kane could miss the euros which would mean Hendo captioning England. For the first time ever I would want them to win just to witness the fume of Henderson lifting every trophy worth lifting in 12 months. 

As long as we get to see more Hendo tippy taps I'm happy.

I think that’s kinda of the point. He always plays Hendo regardless, in any combo.
