It’s a couple of days before the start of Euro 2020 and the England squad are getting fitted for their team suits. I can't help but feel that this book summarises up Jordan's character - unflinching and brutally honest, whilst deploying a warmth. In Jordan Henderson: The Autobiography he talks about his journey from growing up in Sunderland – with football his all-consuming passion as a kid – to becoming one of Liverpool’s most decorated captains.
