The book is extremely ordinary, like the interviews footballers give after matches which lack proper substance. This book sets out why: a player who struggled with criticism and self-doubt, yet made himself the best he could be, ending up captaining Liverpool to every trophy available to them.
The book also tracks his progress on Merseyside, from struggling to settle under his first manager Sir Kenny Dalglish, to Brendan Rodgers handing him the armband following Steven Gerrard’s departure, and eventually those multiple major honours and successes under current boss Jürgen Klopp. Full of heartache, excitement and triumph, this is a candid insight into the life of a top-flight footballer as you've never heard before. He is the only footballer to be named England Player of the Year twice, for the under 21s and then on the senior squad. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Off the field he is a fearless ambassador, with his role in backing the NHS following his work during the COVID-19 pandemic and unifying players across the Premier League to support NHS Charities Together.Penguin Michael Joseph has secured England and Liverpool footballer Jordan Henderson’s autobiography. I really enjoyed this book, it has opened my eyes to the world of football and some of the players in it.
And I think I admire him even more now for understanding a little more the physical and mental challenges he has been through to work to the top of a highly pressurised environment. Full of heartache, excitement and triumph, this is a candid insight into the life of a top-flight footballer as you’ve never read before.Henderson began playing for Liverpool in 2011, before taking over as captain from Steven Gerrard in 2015. In 2015, Jordan took the reins from Steven Gerrard, and under his captaincy Liverpool have won the Champions League and the Premier League - bringing the club its first league title in 30 years. Reading this whilst the team goes through a period of adversity just acts as a reminder of what this group of players and manager have overcame in the past, what they've already achieved together, and what they will achieve in the future. Also could not stop laughing at the story of Trent’s mum not allowing him to get a tattoo after winning the champions league (despite it being Trent’s idea) or Hendo’s recollection of Virgil first arriving at Anfield looking a million dollars (“even his hair was perfect and I thought to myself, ‘He’s got to be good.

Henderson has also been a long-standing player with the England team, playing under Fabio Capello, Roy Hodgson and Gareth Southgate.I also like how he touched upon both Black Lives Matter (especially taking the knee) - considering that Luis Suarez was found guilty of racism when he was playing for Liverpool - and the fund which he and many other footballers set up to help the NHS staff and key workers throughout the pandemic. More importantly, it's also a lesson in perseverance, hard work, self-belief, leading by example and always trying to do the right thing.
