We did very well to get there when we played Real Madrid in the final in 2018. The lads were incredible. But we've grown since then. New players have come in; we've been successful; we've had bad moments as well within that period, and all of that you learn from. I definitely feel this is a different team to what Real Madrid faced a few years ago,” said Henderson. The Englishman went on to express a desire to create history with Liverpool, saying: “The hunger has always been there, and when you do win, the hunger grows, and you start thinking of other challenges, such as becoming a team that wins the Champions League twice. There are not many players who have done that, so to win it twice would be incredible. It's the same with the Premier League - the first Liverpool team to win it in 30 years. You are creating history all the time, and that's what it's all about. The more trophies you win, the more history you create."
