Jude Bellingham took to Instagram late last night and was seriously impressed by Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson’s World Cup display.

Henderson has put in some mixed displays for Liverpool this season and Jurgen Klopp’s side have been inconsistent in the Premier League.

But the Reds captain is a trusted member of Gareth Southgate’s side and was still selected as part of the 26-man squad for Qatar. 

It raised a few eyebrows when Henderson was selected to start against Wales last night but the £190,000-a-week man did not disappoint.

Henderson put in an industrious display from midfield, alongside Declan Rice, and it allowed Bellingham more freedom to roam forward.

And the Borussia Dortmund man was certainly impressed by Henderson’s performance in the 3-0 win over Wales last night.

Bellingham impressed by Henderson

Henderson took to Instagram after the game and heaped praise on Marcus Rashford for scoring a brilliant brace.

But the Liverpool captain received some plaudits himself, including praise from Bellingham. The 19-year-old left a handshake emoji and a fire emoji beneath the post.

The likes of Ian Wright, Rashford and Rice also left comments underneath the post and praised the Liverpool man by using emojis.

Of course, Liverpool fans will love to see Bellingham praising their club captain after he’s been linked with a move to Anfield.

Many clubs are undoubtedly keeping an eye on Bellingham ahead of the next two transfer windows, but 90 Min reports that Liverpool have been scouting the youngster.

As for Henderson, he will be delighted to get 90 minutes under his belt and after a commanding display from midfield, he could be in line to start against Senegal on Sunday.

Gareth Southgate will certainly have some big choices to make ahead of the knockout stages, particularly in midfield and out wide. Phil Foden and Rashford put in brilliant displays last night, while Bukayo Saka and Raheem sterling impressed against Iran last week.

Henderson looks set to battle it out with Mason Mount for the final spot in the midfield three and much will depend on how Southgate rated Bellingham’s display in a more advanced role.
