A 5-0 win in years gone by would have been lauded to the roof, but this has just become the norm under Jurgen...
A couple of years ago, I wrote an article here on Anfield Index about Jordan Henderson (which you can read if you click here). Essentially, I made a case for Henderson returning from what has turned to be the first in a growing list of injuries for the midfielder. At the time, I felt...
