Jordan Henderson feels he's coping with the expectations at Liverpool.

Henderson has enjoyed his time at Anfield so far and while he left a big club in Sunderland during the summer, he realises things are a lot different at a world famous institution like Liverpool FC.

He told liverpoolfc.tv: "Liverpool's got huge expectation. Sunderland's a very big club as well - you only have to see the size of the stadium and the passion of the supporters on the street to understand that. At Liverpool, it's even higher, with the history, the trophies and the players that have been here. I don't think that affects the players at all, though.

"The manager's judgement is second to none and he wouldn't have brought any of us here if he didn't feel we could deal with it. It's as I thought it would be. There's massive pressure here. It's all about how you deal with it. Of course it will be difficult at times but if you react in the right way, it's fine.

"A lot of football is in the mind and I know that I'm strong enough to continue believing in myself. As a player, I just concentrate on what I need to do."
