„Liverpool“ defender Jordan Henderson says that despite a poor start to the club's season, Brendan Rodgers remains one of the best strategists on the planet.
Last season, led by Luis Suarez, the Merseyside team was just a step away from the Premier League title for the first time since the 1990s, and the Northern Irishman was awarded the season's coach award.
However, with the leader having moved to Barcelona this year and Daniel Sturridge unable to play, "Liverpool" is currently ranked only eighth in the table after the first part of the season.
„To me, he is one of the best coaches in the world", – said Henderson. „Since arriving at the club, he has been fantastic."
„In training, he constantly strives to improve our game in every possible way."
„This is evident during matches. If something is not going well in the first 10 or 15 minutes, he will definitely change it. He is able to notice what is happening on the field and make changes when needed."
„We just need to continue working hard and listen to what he has to say. If we do that, then we will be heading in the right direction."
Henderson also praised the coach while talking about the tactical scheme 3-4-3 used against "Swansea" on Monday. This time, "Liverpool" players triumphed with a score of 4-1, fueling discussions about the team's returning form.
