I felt threatened by Fabinho's arrival, Henderson reveals

Liverpool captain, Henderson, has admitted that he was threatened by the arrival of Brazillian midfielder, Fabinho, at Anfield.

The arrival of Fabinho in 2018 gave him extra competition in midfield, particularly given that the Brazilian was their only natural holding midfielder.

However, Henderson has been able to hold his place and is set to lift Liverpool's trophy in a matter of weeks after the club landed its first Premier League title in 30 years.

"A year ago we had a conversation when Fabinho signed," Henderson told the Guardian.

"He was fantastic in that deeper role, definitely one of the best No 6s in the world, and it was an opportunity to move a little further forward.

"That was over a year ago, and since then I've played No 6 and No 8 as much as each other. It doesn't really matter."
