Henderson insists Liverpool match Man City player-for-player

Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson insists they can match Manchester City player-for-player today.

Henderson is sure to start at Anfield.

"They have some very good players. Yaya Toure is one of them, but they have other great players in other areas so everyone needs to make sure they are ready and I am sure we will be and right up for it," said the England international.

"We have some good players ourselves and if everyone performs to the best of their ability we will have a good chance.

"We have a lot of young lads in the team with a lot of energy and great work-rate, so I think that has really showed, pressing high up the pitch.

"Steven Gerrard has been fantastic in the deeper (midfield) role, expressing his passing, and that has been a major point for us."
