Henderson, on loan from Manchester United, could make his latest appearance in a Blades shirt tomorrow night when Chris Wilder's men face Reading in the last 16 of the FA Cup.

Beyond that, the young stopper is widely expected to be named in the England squad for the European Championships this summer - and some have even called for him to be Gareth Southgate's No.1, after another high-profile error from Jordan Pickford against Manchester United at the weekend.

And Osborn, who could also face Reading if Enda Stevens is not declared fit in time, said: "He [Henderson] is the best I've worked with by a long way.

"In terms of shot-stopping, using his feet and his temperament.

"He's got all the attributes to go far in the game."
