Liverpool midfielder Henderson: It was right time to leave Sunderland

Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson has no regrets over leaving Sunderland in the summer.

Henderson accepts he hasn't yet shown his very best form in a Liverpool shirt, but he believes he's at the right club to flourish over the coming years.

"Don't get me wrong, I loved my time at Sunderland," he told liverpoolfc.tv. "I was a fan, I was a kid at the academy and came through the system, and they made me the person I am.

"I loved it, I really did. So many people there helped me to become a footballer, and it felt like I was part of a family, but I knew without doubt it was time to move."
