For a second, Leo simply looked at him.
Then he remembered who he was speaking to.
Henderson had spent years at Liverpool, captaining them through some of the biggest matches of his career.
Whatever his current allegiance, he knew exactly what a defeat to Manchester United meant to the people who wore red on Merseyside.
Leo's mouth curled into a small smile and then nodded.
"Not a bad idea."
"Good. Now get in position."
A moment later, the referee checked both teams, spoke briefly to the captains, and looked towards the touchlines.
The substitutions were complete, leaving the players spread out across the pitch.
Without waiting any longer, he brought his whistle to his mouth when he saw all was fit and blew it to start the game again.
....
With the game restarting, United sought to make the second half theirs.
