DM Jordan Henderson

Henderson over Milner is a tough decision, but the captain beats out his vice captain.

For those jumping off the Henderson bandwagon for one bad, injury riddled season, by all means, continue to vacillate and only ride the wave when it’s smooth and ascending.

When the going gets tough, I’ll just move forward towards the forefront of the Henderson train. Fine by me, there’s more room up here now.

I’m still all in with Henderson. It’ll take more than last season to dislodge me.

With that being said, Henderson will need a quick start to 2016/17 to further push last season in the rear view.
