Oxlade-Chamberlain: Henderson badgering for 5 years about Liverpool

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain admits Liverpool skipper Jordan Henderson has long badgered him about moving to Anfield.

The midfielder joined from Arsenal last week.

"When I was with England with Stevie [Gerrard] we touched on Liverpool but Jordan [Henderson] is the one who most talked about Liverpool," Oxlade-Chamberlain told The Times.

"For five years he's kept telling me that I need to come to Liverpool because he was enjoying it so much and he feels I'd fit in, and the club would get the best out of me.

"This week it's come true."
