Steve Bruce has congratulated Jordan Henderson on his Premier League title win with Liverpool.
After a 30-year wait, the Reds have been gifted their Premier League title, with Chelsea celebrating 2 - 1 win over Manchester City last night.
Henderson became a key player and the captain of Jurgen Klopp's side, joining the club from Sunderland back in 2011. During his spell at his former side, the England professional played under Steve Bruce.

And speaking about Henderson, current Newcastle manager said:
"It just goes to show what’s possible. He had a wonderful desire at 18 – that’s why I put him in the team. You could argue that he’s not the most naturally-gifted footballer out there, but by God, he gets the best out of himself.
Now to be the captain of Liverpool, captain of England, Premier League winner, Champions League winner, World Club Championship winner, I can’t speak highly enough of the lad.
I’m delighted at his progress over the last ten years, it’s been a joy to watch. When you’ve set somebody on their way, that’s one of the good parts of this job, to see how they mature and how they develop and how they grow and the career they’ve had. Congratulations to Jordan, he’s done fantastically well.
I was playing last time they won it. They’re worthy champions."
