Jordan Henderson: Liverpool’s Linchpin Leader

This past week marked the nine-year anniversary of Jordan Henderson's transfer from Sunderland to Liverpool.

If you polled people to ask them the words they most associate with Liverpool's midfield, the descriptions you would mostly see would be "functional, stodgy, obstinant, no-frills."

“It has been a progression” – Reds captain discusses team’s never-say-die attitude

Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson says the team's "mentality" and "resilience" has been "massive" in the team's recent successes.

Late goals and come-from-behind wins were semi-regular occurrences in the last...

Old problems keep coming back to haunt Liverpool

It was a night that not many Liverpool fans will want to think about for too much longer.
