Sevilla (H), the CL returns to Anfield

Imagine if we had this type of midfielder:
He reads the game, anticipates where the ball will be, instantly on the back of opponents, tackles, wins balls, passes the ball forward. Kinda slow though.



Oh yeah, we did.
 
@Modo

Who gives a fuck ? He cost us more results than he won us .

Move on. You've got wijnaldum to fan boy now If you're looking for someone infuriatingly inconsistent.
 
I'm sure most fans watching the match tomorrow will be wishing that Lucas was in the team.

I did enjoy the classic Lucas foul on 2 minutes 30 seconds, as he's miles too slow to catch the Juve player and caltters him late for his customary caution.
 
Oh dear no salah....if true.

Gini definitely plays as he is a proper Homer. The rest should be chopped around a little.

Stats say we won more games with him playing.
Anyway, I don't want Lucas back, I want a defensive midfielder. Not a Captain Sideways or a Mr disappearing act a la Wijnaldum.

You've really got to get over this 'sideways' obsession. Henderson has lots of faults but he plainly DOESN'T keep passing it sideways. You're sounding like an advertising man who keeps trying to use his favourite tag line even though it keeps being rejected. Try 'Mmm-Danone' instead. Or 'Ray Wilkins'.
 
The obsession came first though. The "sideways" bit is his rather pathetic attempt to give his prejudice a coating of "legitimacy".

It's odd that he calls Henderson that, when lucas passed it sideways or backwards more than most

But I don't really want to get in to this quicksand. So I'm out.
 
Salah has a sore throat. He's expected back tomorrow morning for training as usual.

Coutinho - he's fit but Klopp won't discuss the line up until tomorrow.

Players aren't down after Saturday's result. They don't have a right to be down. Tomorrow we have another competition and we plan to put all that we have into it.

Expects to face a strong side. We've prepared for them.

Told by Spanish reporter he seems 'an entertaining guy'. Klopp: 'That's my main skill'.

Reminded by reporter he's lost a few times to Sevilla. Klopp thanks him for reminding him and says he'll use the memory for his team talk. Says if Sevilla loses it'll be partly the reporter's fault. Reporter asks if he could then work for LFC. Klopp a tad tired of the standard of questions, gives faint smile.

Confirms Karius will play tomorrow.

Studge isn't a bad shout, as you said earlier. He deserves a go really after Firmino's outing at the weekend.

Like I said. Captain Sideways.

Looks like City kicked more sideways to me 🙂

Yes. But, really, if he's seriously and honestly keen to judge Henderson's performance, picking THAT game is bad enough, but any sane football fan who hasn't fallen down the rabbit hole of statistical dogma would appreciate you don't analyse the basic individual passing data in a vacuum, you also consider team tactics, player movement ahead of him, and comparative data of other similar players. Just dumping one bit of info there yet again merely underlines what a raging, raving, biased obsession a supposed LFC fan has about one of the players he's supposed to support. Funny how he expects everyone else to be fair about Lucas when he acts so ludicrously biased against Henderson. Particular critiques are not enough for him - there has to also be a chronic attack, a manipulative use of stats and a stupid nickname. He needs to stand back, have a think and decide what on earth he's doing. It's like a cry for help.

You really think I'm the only one thinking that Hendo is a sideways passer? Try, searching 'Henderson' and 'sideways' on twitter, reddit and other forums, you're in for a shock.
