Liverpool captain Henderson explains verbal Van Dijk clash

Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson was happy to exchange verbals with Virgil van Dijk this week.

He and Van Dijk had a verbal ding-dong on Tuesday when they beat Napoli to qualify for the Champions League last 16.

"I love stuff like that because it shows you're a proper team. It shows you care," Henderson says.

"Everything on the pitch is to help the team.

"We need people digging in deep when it's tough."
