12 h. ago Jordan Henderson: ‘I looked at how far it was to Berlin and I hired a van’

Recalled England midfielder discusses his last-minute dash, as a fan, to the Euro 2024 final – and his World Cup dreamJordan Henderson wanted to be part of it. He felt he deserved to be part of it. And so, despite the obstacles, he put in the hard yards to make it happen. It has been a theme of the Ajax midfielder’s career and it resonates once again with him back in the England squad, winning his 81st cap as a substitute in Thomas Tuchel’s first game as head coach – the 2-0 World Cup qualifying win over Albania on Friday night. The more sideways take on it came last summer.Henderson was devastated to have been overlooked by Gareth Southgate for Euro 2024 in Germany, having been involved throughout qualification.

Qualifiers matter only in as much as they have to be negotiated. Friday’s win by England over Albania fell into a very familiar pattern. The brave new world of Thomas Tuchel turned out to look a lot like the faded old world of Gareth Southgate. England had lots of the ball, did not move it fast enough and won by a couple of goals. It does not matter. They could have won 10-0, 8-5 or 1-0 and it would mean almost nothing in terms of the winning of the World Cup.England want to win the World Cup next summer. They have a squad that should make them challengers. Barring pratfalls, there will come a point next year when they will play an Argentina or a Spain or a France, a team of equivalent or greater talent and, almost certain...
