5 players whose careers tailed off after being cover stars on FIFA and PES

#2 Jordan Henderson

Yes, Henderson was with Messi

If you ask Liverpool fans, this player probably wouldn’t make the list. But the fact of the matter is that Henderson being a co-cover on the FIFA 16 video game did raise plenty of eyebrows. Far from a big name, Henderson was paired with Messi and many felt he didn’t deserve a spot so early in his career. His cause hasn’t been helped today following inconsistent performances and Liverpool’s status of being far from good enough in the Premier League. While Henderson has played a major part for his country (even captaining the side), his inclusion on the cover did little to propel him to stardom. If anything he continues to slip down the radar at Merseyside with new faces expected to join the fray.
