Henderson, who made 30 appearances in the league before being sidelined by a knee injury, has challenged his teammates to continue improving.

“We need to go again, to be better, to keep that desire, that hunger and that competitiveness as we’ve shown over the last few years,” the England midfielder told Liverpool’s website.

“Just keep going and win as many trophies as we can, because we’ve proven that over the last few years we’re a top, top team. That’s all down to hard work and dedication.”

“I’m really excited to see what we can do this season, another big season for us.”

The Jurgen Klopp-coached Liverpool face English FA Cup champions Arsenal in the Community Shield on Saturday before beginning their Premier League title defense against Leeds United on Sept. 12.

“We’ve got to be right at it, come that first game, and we’ve got another chance to win silverware. After that, the Premier League starts pretty quickly. So, we need to be ready,” Henderson added.
