Tom is more confident in his ability.he isn't scared to try things and it shows.henderson is till playing within himself too much.they are around the same level though

Not really there both the same type of player, Cleverley often keeps it simple as well.

He's going to be outstanding - doesn't have the consistency to do it every game but he's got everything you could want in a young player

The lad has bags of talent, looking forward to seeing him grow as a player at the club learning from the likes of Gerrard and Lucas...

Get really pissed off at how some folks love to make him a scapegoat for any sub-standard team displays...the lad is 21, was with sunderland all his life, moved to a new club, going to need time to bed in...Hard to think of midfielders that were setting the world alight week in week out at that age...He's shown what he is capable of doing and its only going to get better and more consistent with time..

Could partner Lucas for ten years if he develops as we hope. Great young player.

Unbelievable how people come out with this kind of stuff! Although only young i don't think Henderson is gonna be anything more than average! he was decent today but is often dreadful so for me nothing has changed, still bottles challenges and offers no real threat and appears quite thick to me. but hey he will be the greatest midfielder the world has ever seen

harleydanger · « **Reply #84 on:** March 3, 2012, 05:55:18 pm »

Playing out of position and still doing a job. Can't ask much more of a 21yo.

I wonder, were you spouting the same shite about Lucas a couple of years ago?

maybe...if he had Shelvey's balls...still lacking in that department for me......hopefully that'll improve as he matures

The lads raw. He needs time and deserves it for his efforts.

Excited about him to be honest.

If Henderson had more confidence in his ability he would be a cracking player.

Has everything in his locker.

Bit of a myth this whole best position business. No one knows what it is yet, people just assume it's centre mid for some reason. Because he's tall i suppose.

The tools are there for him to be anything really. He could play wide, or centre mid. He's not really done anything in either position yet though.

It's funny too because there's actually been games where people have said he's played wide, when he's played centrally, and vice versa.

Exactly Shelvey a better player for me so for 19 million quid hes average, if your happy for him to mature for 5 years great.

Because he's put in most of his better performances this season at CM and has been largely shit at RM.

Red Genius · « **Reply #94 on:** March 3, 2012, 06:09:17 pm »

Only caught the first 45mins today, and it looks like the conviction continued through to the second half.

However back on topic, Jordan was fantastic in those first 45mins, he took the game to Arsenal when in possession and i was very impressed.

Yeah trot out that old bs of how Henderson is a bottler.

Well I get someone had to be given the 'shitehouse' tag seeing as Raul left.

How the fuck is he supposed to prove it? You prove that he cost £19m, then.

At the end of the day it doesn't matter how much he cost because you'll still dislike him given you appear to have a vendetta of some description against him.

PhilV · « **Reply #98 on:** March 3, 2012, 06:13:25 pm »

On days like today I would rather have Henderson & Jonjo (or Spearing) in the mid with Maxi & Kuyt (or replace one of those with Bellamy) than Adam - if we don't get fourth but have Europa secured might as well let the young talent get some experience, Coates should get games too.

Cpt_Reina · « **Reply #99 on:** March 3, 2012, 06:22:05 pm »

Thought he was top notch today. Very pleased with him.

I don't think anyone called Henderson a bottler. When they said "I wish he had Shelvey's balls" I believe it's related more to confidence than courage. Shelvey's a cocky sumbitch, and if Henderson got a little of that himself he'd be tearing it up.

I think we'd at least find out if he's truly capable of tearing it up - at the moment I'm just not sure. On the whole I'm not convinced by the guy but he had one of his better games today.

Quintet · « **Reply #102 on:** March 3, 2012, 06:27:26 pm »

Eventually as he matures he will be a very good player, who plays with confidence, shoots and takes responsibility but doesn't really do that a the moment. As for the other main 2 we signed in the summer to play in midfield I don't hold much hope.

LiverBirdKop · « **Reply #104 on:** March 3, 2012, 06:33:47 pm »

Without having watched the game again, I thought he was alright especially when he got more involved in the second half.

Now, not needing to watch the game again it's the same criticism I have for him week in week out:

With apologies to the Mods and you guys......MORE AGGRESSIVENESS MORE AGGRESSIVENESS MORE AGGRESSIVENESS!!!

Absolutely superb today. Full of energy and positive. Nice to see him running forward and beyond the strikers today. He's a very good player who could be a world beater.

Billman · « **Reply #108 on:** March 3, 2012, 06:39:43 pm »

I agree. Can't understand why he's getting so much stick after today's performance.

Crackerjack Sam · « **Reply #110 on:** March 3, 2012, 06:43:00 pm »

He can be useless at times but great at other times. He'll be a greater player next season. I'm a fan of his.

Yep, don't dispute that at all. Like I said above, I think he's a great player, however, it could be his mental strength that stops him going to the next level.

steve10 · « **Reply #112 on:** March 3, 2012, 06:52:20 pm »

One half decent performance in 20 odd games and suddenly he has become a brilliant player.

gazzathered · « **Reply #113 on:** March 3, 2012, 06:53:25 pm »

Did ok today and that's been the story of his season, he will be a very good player in three years time when Suarez has gone and were struggling for top six.
Needs time but that's something you don't get if you want success.
Reina, Gerrard and Suarez demand success now.

Billman · « **Reply #114 on:** March 3, 2012, 06:56:49 pm »

Have been wondering for a while now did he cost 16 or 20m? Always thought it was 16 but various publications keep insisting on saying he cost 20 in numerous articles.

He deserves to be praised for his performance today just like you like to slate players when they have a bad game. It works both ways.

Notorious IT · « **Reply #116 on:** March 3, 2012, 06:58:56 pm »

He needs to believe in himself. He should have been screaming at Kuyt to leave it at the penalty rebound. I also thought he could have put a little more confidence into his effort when Suarez hit the post, it was a bit tame.

Tommy Torres · « **Reply #117 on:** March 3, 2012, 07:16:54 pm »

His best game today. Needs to build on this now. People who slate him need to remember that he is only 21.
