index Gerrard

John Aldridge believes that Steven Gerrard had a huge role to play in helping Jordan Henderson mature into the role of Liverpool captain.


Henderson took over the role of vice captaincy back in 2014 and was eventually given the captain armband after Steven Gerrard left the club in the summer of 2015.

The England international skippered Liverpool to a dramatic 1-0 victory over bitter Merseyside rivals, Everton on Monday night courtesy of a late Sadio Mane winner in added time.

The Liverpool skipper kept his cool despite a horror tackle from Ross Barkley on him in the second half. The Everton man managed to escape with only a yellow card. He was quick to play down the tackle in the aftermath of the match disclosing that Barkley offered him an apology immediately after the match.

Henderson has been integral to a Liverpool side that has been gunning for the Premier League title this season. He has been very composed and balanced at the center of the park, spraying passes throughout the whole pitch. Aldridge, former Liverpool player who won the league with Liverpool in 1988, believes that Gerrard played a key part in Henderson’s maturity.

Juventus will not release Paul Pogba to any club for anything less than €70 million but this extremely high price tag has not intimidated Chelsea as the Premier League club is believed to be willing to pay that steep price for the young Frenchman.

The owner of Chelsea, Roman Abramovich is prepared to spend that much money in the prodigy who is already being labeled as: ‘’The next Zinedine Zidane’’

Chelsea will do whatever it takes to continue winning titles even if it means dishing out large sums of cash in a player and this is what they have to do as all of their rivals are also splashing out high amounts of money in signing new players.

The first victory of this season that Chelsea secured can be credited in a large part to the latest high-profile signing that Jose Mourinho completed as the Portuguese manager snatched Pedro Rodriguez for a price tag of €26.6m.

In this summer transfer window, Pedro was a player who was being sought out by Manchester United but Chelsea acted faster and splashed out the cash for the Spanish attacker which has already resulted in a huge impact for Chelsea as he almost single handedly secured all 3 points for the Premier League club during his debut match.
