Centre Defensive Midfielder – Jordan Henderson

Imagine not playing your captain in a Merseyside derby. Henderson has been part of a strong Liverpool midfield this season, and changing that would be risky at best. His engine will be key to locking down Everton and pressuring them, so I think he’ll play a big part in this match. I’m hoping for a Gerrard-like screamer, but it’d be more realistic to expect the odd lazy attempt at a 40 yarder.
