Sunderland winger Jordan Henderson is backing Jack Colback for big things next season.
Manager Steve Bruce described the tough-tackling midfielder as his best player during the closing stages of the campaign, and Henderson believes the 21-year-old has what it takes to continue to impress.
"I've known Jack for years now and he was brilliant in the last few games for us," Henderson, who played in the same youth team as Colback under assistant Academy manager Kevin Ball, told safc.com.
"Hopefully he can continue doing that and I'm sure he will. He's got a good attitude which will serve him well."
