Adam Lallana believes Jordan Henderson has found another gear since deputising as Liverpool captain.
The 24-year old midfielder has been in fine form with the Reds' armband which he has donned since regular skipper Steven Gerrard has been sidelined with injury.
Teammate Lallana has seen first-hand the damage Henderson has done and says having the captaincy has been a major factor to his brilliant contribution recently.
"He's unbelievable. For me, he has matured as a player over the last two years and kicked on to another level, even with the armband," Lallana said.
"I was lucky enough to be captain at Southampton and it does give you that little bit extra. It seems it is doing the same to him as well. It's great to be playing with such great players - the results are on the up."
