Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers is certain that Jordan Henderson will only continue to improve as a player.
The Reds vice-captain, who is deputising as skipper for the injured Steven Gerrard, was the star of the show with a goal and an assist in the 2-0 home win over Burnley on Wednesday night.
The England midfielder, 24, fired home a brilliant effort from range in the 29th minute before setting up Daniel Sturridge's 51st-minute header and his performance was praised by an admiring Rodgers.
"It was a great strike and that gave us greater confidence in the game and his ball for the second goal was terrific," said Rodgers.
"He has great technique and precision and it was a great finish by Daniel.
"He is improving all the time and as he matures even more tactically he will become even better.
"He has always had athleticism, he is born with a natural gift to run, and tactically he is improving all the time and his passing is improving and he is becoming one of the real leaders of this team.
"It was a wonderful performance by him and the team in general."
