Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson said receiving the Premier League trophy from club prediction by betting football contact legend Sir Kenny Dalglish later tonight would `make him more special`. The Reds play vs. Chelsea in their last home game, after which they will be officially awarded as Premier League champions in a special ceremony at Anfield.
That will be Liverpool`s first title since 1990, when Dalglish was a player and manager of the club. `He is an iconic figure in this football club, an amazing man we all love!`, Henderson told the BBC. Dalglish also had a second tenure as Liverpool manager in 2011, taking over from Roy Hodgson, and he was responsible for attracting Henderson from Sunderland when he was just 21 years old.
The English national, who is currently treating a knee injury, said that his arrival was very questionable. `Eventually you will receive criticism, whether in the past, now or in the future as a footballer.`, Henderson added after winning the Champions League and Club World Cup with Liverpool last year.
`People told me I wasn`t good enough for Sunderland, Liverpool, England - there were always questions. But as the years go by, you just use it differently. Now I`m looking for criticism because it gives me extra motivation to prove people wrong.`he added. Henderson urged fans to stay home and abide by restrictions due to the coronavirus, which is important for `the health and safety of the country.`
