Southgate’s a complete hypocrit when he speaks about Hendo. One minute it’s Hendo does everything for the team next it’s Hendos against the team. Man needs to clear his head of shit before opening his mouth.
It’s not like Hendo is the only English player on national duty to miss a penalty and what should be said should be well drilled in a managers head, if it’s not he shouldn’t be manager! (he fact he should resign and the media should call for his resignation!

We were runners up just before winning the thing. That’s called progress

My family and I feel greatly humbled to be recognised by my award of an MBE, more so given the reason for it.
There are many privileges that come from playing professional football, but having a platform to promote a charitable cause such as Players Together and NHS Charities Together is as big a privilege as any. It’s important for me to state that although the honour has been issued to me personally, the credit must be shared to a far larger group of people and I accept this in the knowledge I was part of something special, rather than the reason for it.
The other Premier League captains were the catalyst and the rest of the players, including my own teammates at Liverpool, were a driving force behind the scenes. Huge numbers of football fans, from across the country, also displayed great generosity in donating. But the true heroes are the NHS staff; they put themselves in harm’s way to serve and protect us.
Therefore I dedicate this to all the nurses, doctors, carers, porters, admin workers, cleaners, security personnel and every single individual who devotes their career and their lives to making the NHS the part of British life we are rightly most proud of as a nation. #ImHonoured

Jordan Henderson has been awarded an MBE for services to charity.
Liverpool’s captain has been recognised for his work and contribution throughout the coronavirus pandemic.
In April 2020, Henderson was an architect of the ‘Players Together’ initiative that encouraged professional footballers to donate to the NHS.
He subsequently became an ambassador for the NHS Charities Together organisation, which supports the staff, patients and volunteers of the 240 NHS charities in the UK.
Earlier this year, meanwhile, Henderson supported Cybersmile’s anti-cyberbullying campaign ‘People Not Profiles’ by handing over control of his social media accounts to the foundation in order to raise awareness of the impact of online abuse.

Remember how many of our supporter base question Henderson all along and went bat shit crazy when he was given the captaincy.
Love it how he turned doubters into believers.
Class player, class captain and more importantly a class human being.
A credit to his family, his home town and to Liverpool Football Club

BBC article mentioned Sterling in the first free lines and was on the BBC sport notification about the honours list, Hendo was almost an afterthought in the article.
