Henderson

[red_maradona]

Deserves his own thread I think.

Souness, I think, made the point that Hendo ran more than anyone yesterday. His work rate really gives us the space and time for the likes of Luis, Gerrard and Studge to do the damage.

He was magnificent and well and truly on the path towards greatness - if he can add the odd goal he would be priceless.

Wasn't it Allen he was bigging up?

No, was Hendo.

 

[Dreambeliever]

He's been our best cm this season and by a distance

 

[Modo]

Yeah Jordan did really well in midfield. Barely gave Fellaini and Carrick and inch.
Felt that his passing could have been better.

Had three key passes though and also set up Allen who then got a penalty.

 

[Mystic]

He's great and he's going to go from strength to strength.

 

[Markeh]

I think Flanagan probably deserves a thread of his own too. He's been doing very well.

What's this 'deserve a thread' gibberish?

Playing well enough to warrant a proper discussion about it.

Well fucking start one then - You are allowed you know...

What's this 'deserve a thread' gibberish?

Well, first step you get a thread.

Then after that you get a thread about a song.

Then you actually get a song.

Then you've made it

He's a very underrated attacking passer. I hope our opponents don't realize how good he actually is in that, and keep focusing on just Coutinho or Sterling when we play them. Let them think it's okay to let him have the ball. He's only our 2nd best creator of chances afterall (according to Squawka stats).

 

[the count]

Lol

 

[gene hughes]

Haha

He's done that before.

 

[Markeh]

I love Henderson, that's just like a toddler getting excited about something.

 

[hamstrung_pigeon]

Lol

His skipping will give him problems later in his career. Straight back, flappy wings and all that.

Agree completely. The way he weighs some of his through balls reminds me of Xabi. He's very much a confidence player, but no better man than Rodgers to play under.
Most generally underrated player in the league if you ask me.

 

[Mystic]

Rodgers saying his is a contract they'll look to renew in the summer. Good, deservedly so, however if the rumours about his very large wage when he joined were right, maybe not with to much of a pay rise.

 

[macdadi112]

I'll hold my hands up and say that I was one of those thinking he had to go but he has performed well lately.

So well worth another contract - the kid is growing into a decent lad.

 

[doctor_mac]

Lol

He reminds me of the lambs that are in the fields near my house. Gamboling is the term to describe his movements there.

 

[tony]

I was thinking more Larry Grayson - what a gay day

"We dream of a team of Hendersons"

[peekay]

Haha

Yup

 

[Modo]

 

[The Slugmonster]

I love his attitude and he really has been a breath of fresh air this season. I hope he can add more goals to his game but if we continue playing in the same vein he won't necessarily need to. Compliments everyone around him and am glad he was given his chance.

 

[hamstrung_pigeon]

Anyone who doesn't like Henderson hates babies.

An ode to our favourite lamb, sung to the tune of "London Bridge is falling down":

Henderson is gambo-lin',
Gambo-lin', Gambo-lin',
Henderson is gambo-lin',
'cos we scored ag'in!

 

[Pesam]

He was very good again last night and if he continues his current trajectory, and has enough belief in himself, he can be one of the world's top midfielders by next season.
