Niall Quinn saw the Englishman come through the Sunderland academy when he was there as a player and he watched him develop into a £20m midfielder when he was chairman of the club but he didn't see the day that Henderson would be in front of the best team in Europe, lifting the Champions League trophy above his head.

"Someone who's just made himself a really good player. Someone who works and works and works at his game. Someone you want with you in the trenches."
