Jordan Henderson shows leadership qualities for Liverpool

Liverpool 2 Burnley 0: Jordan Henderson last night emphasised that his desire to be Steven Gerrard’s heir apparent at Liverpool is not restricted to tub-thumping.

He can play a bit too.

Since the turn of the year Henderson has seemingly been on a mission to prove his leadership credentials, in an effort to underline to Brendan Rodgers he is tough enough for the captain’s job when Gerrard leaves for America at the end of the season.
