Henderson is an important player for Liverpool and is playing for England at the ongoing 2016 European Championship in France.

Former Liverpool striker Collymore was not impressed with the performance of Henderson for the Three Lions.
“Only 2 players disappointed me against Slovakia if I’m being honest,” Collymore wrote on Boylesports.com.
“Firstly Jack Wilshere who still looks woefully short of sharpness and Jordan Henderson, who’s energy I admire in a Liverpool or England shirt but for me I’m afraid isn’t a good enough player for either.
“Neither would be in my plans for first 11 duty moving forward in this tournament.”
Against Slovakia, Henderson took two shots, had a pass accuracy of 91%, created four chances, put in 11 crosses and attempted two dribbles.
The 26-year-old scored two goals and created 18 chances in 17 Premier League appearances for Liverpool last season.
The midfielder had a pass accuracy of 79% and a shot accuracy of 40%, and won 17 headers, eight dribbles and 26 tackles.
During the 2014-15 campaign, Henderson scored six goals and created 66 chances in 37 Premier League matches for Liverpool.
The former Sunderland man had a pass accuracy of 82% and a shot accuracy of 41%, and won 35 headers, 10 dribbles and 61 tackles.
