Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson has said that he is ready to fight to stay at the club.
The 22-year-old, who rejected a move to Fulham in the summer transfer window, said that he sees himself staying with the Reds for the foreseeable future.
"A move to Liverpool has to be for life, not just for Christmas," Henderson told The Mirror.
"When I signed for Liverpool, I definitely wanted it to be long term. I want to make sure that when I am given opportunities I work hard and try to take them.
"It might be easier to throw a tantrum and walk away from a big club than fight to make it work. But it just gives me a different incentive to push on and go forward."
Henderson was signed by Kenny Dalglish for £16 million in June 2011.
