Hundreds of people have tweeted this clip from yesterday’s England win….
It features our former midfielder Danny Murphy commentating on our current skipper Jordan Henderson – and it sounds like he’s basically aroused!

Henderson’s brilliant stats v Panama hardly a surprise anymore
We assume Murphy is referring to Henderson’s insane physical traits, but the emphasis on the word ‘fit’ suggests otherwise!
In fairness, Henderson did cover over 10km (along with a 91% passing accuracy), so it’s no wonder Murphy was impressed by what he saw.
Alright Danny lad calm down… #WorldCup https://t.co/CPIdtLpeBB

England play Belgium on Thursday and it’ll be interesting to see whether Henderson is given a rest following his superb start to the tournament.
It’s impossible to know whether or not it’ll be an advantage to finish 1st or 2nd yet, as other results can stipulate various paths through the knockout stages, so it’s up to Gareth Southgate to decide whether to bring in Eric Dier or keep his strongest XI.
We’d probably give Hendo a rest, play Dier, and bring in Trent Alexander-Arnold for his World Cup debut at right wing-back, too.
