Selected for bench
Henderson (ankle) is on the bench for Sunday's match against Nottingham Forest.
Analysis: Henderson was left out last game with an ankle injury but will not miss further time, as the midfielder has earned a bench spot. This gives the club the return of a starter, with one goal and three assists in 20 appearances (15 starts) this season. However, he has only started two of their past six games, falling out of favor a bit.
Could see minutes Saturday
Henderson (ankle) could be an option for Sunday's game against Nottingham Forest, manager Keith Andrews told media during Thursday's press conference. "Jordan [Henderson] has been back on the grass, and hopefully he'll be involved," Andrews said.
Analysis: Henderson missed last week's game against Chelsea in what was his first (and lone) absence of the campaign so far. The fact that the veteran midfielder is back in training suggests that he has an outside chance of returning this weekend, but a late call will be made closer to Sunday's 9 a.m. ET kickoff. Matthias Jensen should remain in the XI in Henderson's absence.
