The midfielder will play his 300th
Premier League game at high-flying West Ham
Jürgen Klopp can often display a breezy indifference to statistics but, while his team are on the verge of setting a record for the longest unbeaten run in Liverpool’s decorated history, a different fact caught his eye. Jordan Henderson will become the fourth player to make 300 Premier League appearances for
Liverpool on Sunday, putting him in distinguished company alongside Steven Gerrard, Jamie Carragher and Sami Hyypiä. As Klopp noted, he is nevertheless already in uncharted territory.
“He surpassed Gareth Barry as the player with the most passes in the Premier League, is that right?” Klopp said. “I read that and he still has four or five years to go.”
