Jordan Henderson believes Liverpool have missed Adam Lallana

Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson believes the team have severely missed Adam Lallana, who has had a frustrating run with fitness.

Lallana has not started a game for Liverpool since the clash against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park in March, but has made appearances off the bench since, only to become injured again.

With the English international beginning to regain fitness, Henderson believes it will only help Liverpool’s season going forward.

“He is such a big talent – not so long ago he was England’s player of the year,” Henderson told reporters.

“He is a massive player. I feel that we have missed him, both with Liverpool and with England.

“It’s exciting for me to know that when he comes back in, he can take us forward even more. He can help us get better and I am excited for Liverpool and England for him to get back playing football and to show everyone what he is capable of.

“There’s not many players that play like Adam. He is unique in that way, how he links the play. He’s so good on the ball, he’s got a great work ethic and he still does the defensive work.

“We have missed him in the sense of what he brings to the team. It would have been a boost to have had him at the World Cup. And for Liverpool too.

“Last season would have been even better for both teams because of the talent that he is.

“But if he stays fit he can be a massive player for us going forward and still have a big impact.”
