Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson claims Steven Gerrard is England's greatest ever player. Gerrard announced his international retirement yesterday.
Henderson told Liverpoolfc.com: "He's probably been the best player this country has ever seen - not only as a player, but also as a leader and a captain.
"For me, playing with him is a pleasure and hopefully I can continue to do so for a very long time at Liverpool.
"For England supporters, it's disappointing because he's such a big player, but at the same time, for Liverpool fans it's a big plus because it means he'll be fresher and can have more breaks when internationals are on - and he'll be raring to go."
