The Reds are locked in pursuit of English football’s top prize with Manchester City, a single point separating the teams after the 29 games before this weekend’s round of fixtures.
Henderson and co were held to goalless stalemates at Manchester United and Everton either side of a 5-0 rout of Watford last week, which allowed City to move top.
But the Liverpool captain dismissed any suggestion that the intensity of their mission is affecting the players – in fact, he insisted the situation is one that simply has to be relished.
“There’s pressure playing for Liverpool but that’s why you come, that’s what you want, you want to play for the biggest clubs in the world, play in big games and enjoy them,” he told Premier League Productions ahead of Sunday’s clash with Burnley.
