Liverpool fans make strong Jordan Henderson point after Southampton display

Liverpool hammered Southampton 4-0 at Anfield this afternoon and fans have hailed Jordan Henderson for his display.

The Reds equalled Manchester City's record of 20 consecutive wins with a commanding performance at home.

After an indifferent first-half effort, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain opened the scoring in the second minute following the break.

Henderson then popped up in an attacking position on the hour to bag his seventh goal of the 2019/20 Premier League campaign.

But as if that wasn't enough, he provided a wonderful assist for one of Mohamed Salah's brace late on.

Henderson's involvement in the goals wasn't his only part to play in the game as he produced another display full of relentless running.

This performance was recognised by Liverpool fans aplenty post-match as they hailed their midfield dynamo.

The Reds now lead the Premier League by 22 points but have played a game more than nearest rivals Man City.

Pep Guardiola's men travel to London to face Tottenham tomorrow afternoon.

For Jurgen Klopp's side, it's a date with Norwich City on February 15 next up in the Premier League.

Liverpool also host Shrewsbury Town on Tuesday night in their fourth round FA Cup replay.
