# Liverpool fans believe Henderson should win PFA Player of the Year award

Jordan Henderson produced another big performance on Sunday, as Liverpool [beat Manchester United 2-0 at Anfield](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51080695).

The Reds skipper almost scored a screamer in front of the Kop, hitting the post, and worked his socks off throughout.

Henderson’s form has seen some Liverpool supporters talking up his chances of winning the PFA Player of the Year award in the spring.

Here’s what these fans think on Twitter.

### Read Liverpool Verdict

This is the best form of Henderson’s career, in my opinion.

He has been simply magnificent ever since Fabinho got injured in November, excelling back in the No.6 role.

Henderson has created 12 big chances in the last three seasons, with seven of those coming since Fabinho was out, via stats expert [Simon Brundish](https://twitter.com/SimonBrundish/status/1219176418745163776?s=20).

I believe he should be among the nominees for PFA Player of the Year, but I don’t think he should win it.

Sadio Mane and Kevin De Bruyne are the standout candidates, in my opinion – Mane is the current favourite, according to [https://www.oddschecker.com/football/english/premier-league/pfa-player-of-the-year](https://www.oddschecker.com/football/english/premier-league/pfa-player-of-the-year)*[Oddschecker](https://www.oddschecker.com/football/english/premier-league/pfa-player-of-the-year)* – while Trent Alexander-Arnold is also in the running.

That is nothing against Henderson, however, and if he lifts the Premier League title this season, I think he will rightly be seen as a Liverpool legend forever.
