'He's immaculate' - Gerrard labels Henderson 'the ultimate professional'

The Rangers boss has heaped praise on his former team-mate following the Reds’ European success

Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard has labelled Jordan Henderson ‘the ultimate professional’ after the Reds midfielder captained his side to Champions League victory.

The former Sunderland midfielder captained the Reds to European glory in Madrid as they beat Tottenham 2-0 in the final, whilst also pulling off the biggest semi-final comeback ever in the competition in overturning a 3-0 deficit against Barcelona.

And former Liverpool captain Gerrard thinks the current skipper deserves his success for the way he conducts himself.
