The LFC captain was spreading perfect long balls around all night long and had an excellent long-range effort saved as he dominated the midfield and got at the heart of everything England did in their win over Tunisia.

You can see some of his video highlights below, with ITV pundits Martin O’Neill, Lee Dixon and Gary Neville all purring over his display and big improvement.

Some of us have noticed him doing this for some time, but hey, better late than never, right?

The pundits weren’t the only ones full of praise, with most of Twitter agreeing he looked like Andrea Pirlo last night.

While that may be a bit of a stretch, it’s fair to say players like Paul Scholes and Michael Carrick get obscene amounts of praise based on similar performances, so this recognition of Hendo’s efforts is long overdue:
