Former midfielder Gary McAllister praises Liverpool duo Jordan Henderson and James Milner for their leadership qualities both on and off the pitch.

Former midfielder Gary McAllister has hailed the impact of Jordan Henderson and James Milner at Liverpool.

While Virgil van Dijk and the club's attacking players regularly make the headlines, Henderson has been tipped to win a number of individual accolades at the end of the season.

The impact of the club skipper and Milner has not gone unnoticed by McAllister, who has praised the influence of the pair in the dressing room.

Speaking to the club's official website, he said: "You cannot speak highly enough of Jordan. He's a fantastic guy around the place. I think what you see on a matchday is what you see every day on the training field.

"He's always setting an example in how he navigates from Monday to Friday through the training, setting those standards and those levels. I'm really pleased for the guy.

"Milner's been a fantastic signing. He's obviously a Leeds boy and made his debut very early for Leeds United as well. He's somebody that I've always kept an eye on and admired throughout his long career. Again, what you see is what you get."

Henderson has made 359 appearances during a nine-year career at Anfield, while Milner has 210 outings to his name since joining in 2015.
