Jordan Henderson hasn’t always been everybody’s cup of tea, but it seems the Liverpool captain is finally starting to turn opinions in his favour this season.

The 29-year-old is currently in his ninth season as a Liverpool player and is arguably enjoying his best one yet, having netted his third goal of the season and laid one on for Mohamed Salah as the Reds romped to a 4-0 win over Southampton at Anfield on Saturday.

PFA Nomination

His excellent performances of late had seen him nominated for the PFA Player of the Month award for January only to be pipped by Adama Traore of Wolves.  Both punters and bookmakers alike are starting to take note of Henderson’s role in this Liverpool team, who are now 22 points clear at the top of the Premier League table and need just five more wins to be crowned champions.

The England international was once a 150/1 outsider to win the award but has since seen his odds come in drastically to the point where he is now the favourite to win it, being priced with bookmakers at 6/4 to win it.

Alan Shearer On Match Of The Day

Former England striker Alan Shearer clearly agrees with the bookies, saying on Match of the Day: “I believe that if the season was to end tomorrow he would be my Player of the season. Absolutely no doubt about it.  He gets his reward because of his hard work. I thought he was magnificent, as he has been all season.

“What a season he’s having, absolutely incredible. Player of the season, definitely.  When you look at some of their performances, how special Liverpool have been, whether it’s the goalkeeper, Van Dijk, or the front three, he for me has been the driving force. He’s been superb.”

The Competition

Henderson will likely be competing with a number of his teammates for the award giving Liverpool’s dominance in the Premier League this season and currently has Sadio Mane (3/1), Virgil van Dijk (9/1), Mohamed Salah (16/1) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (16/1) in close contention according to the bookies. Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne (6/1) is the only non-Liverpool player in the top-six contenders. You can get great offers on this at bonuscode.co.uk

If Henderson were to win the award this season, it would complete an extraordinary turnaround for what once was a much-maligned player.
