Many Liverpool fans have publicly demanded more midfielders to arrive at the club and seemingly written off the likes of Jordan Henderson for being too old but our captain was on fine form in the Merseyside derby.
Speaking about the skipper after the match, Jurgen Klopp simply defined him as a “one man pressing machine”.
That is the perfect way to describe how he performed against Everton and the high octave performances we’re used to seeing from the Sunderland-born midfielder.
Perhaps the issues aren’t as bad as many thought and now we have a spring back in our steps, the good times may not be too far on the horizon.
