Jordan Henderson watch: How did England skipper fare in 0-0 draw against Slovenia after stepping in for Wayne Rooney?
Liverpool midfielder led Three Lions in World Cup qualifier bore draw but did he live up to expectations?
JORDAN HENDERSON took the armband from a legend at Liverpool, so he knew it wouldn’t be easy with England.
Kop fans will always love Steven Gerrard and Three Lions supporters also showed their support to axed Wayne Rooney.
But it was still a decent audition from Henderson.
Players linked arms for the national anthem and on the pitch Hendo was the player organising the troops and trying to get something on a tricky night.
He dropped really deep to try to dictate play from the back, a role he could adopt in the future instead of raiding forward.
Rooney’s range of passing helped England during a frenetic game but Henderson still had an important role.
When Roo came on, he took the armband from Hendo — but headed into the No 10 role instead of in front of the back four.
That is the Liverpool star’s role for Gareth Southgate just now.
