New Plymouth Argyle manager Ian Foster says he enjoyed working with Jordan Henderson at Al-Ettifaq.

Foster was part of Steven Gerrard's coaching staff before leaving for the Plymouth job.

On working with former Liverpool captain Gerrard, he told BBC Sport: "He's immaculate in everything he does.

"From the the minute he walks into the football club to the minute he leaves - and he's normally the first and last one in those instances - he is an example to all of us in his behaviours.

"It allows me to speak to the young players in the building and say 'this is what elite behaviours look like, I've witnessed it from a player who's captained his country at the highest level'.

"It does benefit you as a coach because you get to see what elite looks like."
