Henderson: I'm the right man to lead Liverpool

Jordan Henderson now believes he can contribute as Liverpool captain, despite his doubts of last season.

Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson questioned his contribution as the club's skipper during last season, but insists he now has no doubts.

The England international was hampered by numerous injuries, making just 17 Premier League appearances in his first season with the armband.

Henderson, 26, said his minimal contribution on the field meant he questioned himself as captain.

"I've never felt that I didn't want the captaincy but there were times last season when I was very down because I wasn't playing and I questioned my contribution as captain because of that," he said.
