Though Brentford were largely forced onto the back foot, they carried a real threat through Schade and Brazilian forward Igor Thiago.

His influence was capped with a vital assist, underlining his impact at both ends of the pitch.

On Henderson's assist, Brentford manager Keith Andrews speaking to Match of the Day said: "I think the detail around the way we wanted to approach it tonight was Kevin being slightly higher because of the pace.



Kevin's pace is just sensational and he's constantly growing in confidence

He's in a different stature now in our group, he's shown last season for large parts what a good player he is and he will be a big part."

Speaking to Sky Sports following the game, the midfielder said: "It's nice to be back playing at the highest level in the Premier League, it's the best league in the world so to be back playing in it means a lot

"I'm so grateful for the opportunity to come back and show people I can still play at this level whether it's tonight or with the national team.

"I feel fit, I feel good, I just want to keep trying to enjoy my football and show people I can help the team going forward."
