Where did that come from? He was one of the best players on the pitch tonight. What would you guys think about him playing DM for the first team if he plays like that?

I actually think that he'd make a decent defensive midfielder, because his attack isn't that great. Maybe Rodgers should start moulding him for a defensive role, because he has a decent motor and can tackle.

I thougth he was ok but not fantastic. A lot of his passes were backward towards the centerback. Bring on more forward passes like Allen before we talk about first team.

I agree, while he defended well and kept in their faces, his passing left a lot to be desired.

he will be kept on as a utility player, dont think he excels in any role . He was involved in some of the goals though if i am not mistaken. Can't see him improving much , wheras shelvey has improved and will probably continue to improve

Shelvey and Spearing have taken the biggest steps so far this season and have shown huge potential to be future stars of the game!
Many a shirt sale from those two in the future because the youngsters who follow LFC will want to be just like them!

He's def capable of being a half decent player, he just needs to shake of the shackles of the big transfer fee and come out of his shell a bit. I think that now all the hooharr has died down he'll be out of the lime light and it will will enable him to gradually progress.

Unfortunately with some of our supporters he will never be out of the limelight because of his transfer fee. Problem is, it wasn't his fault that's what the club paid for him but many don't want to recognize this.
He showed before he came to us he could play and I agree that now that he a season under his belt in a red shirt he should be feeling more comfortable and start playing like he was before he joined us.

Didn't see the game last night, but Allen doesn't make many forward passes in the EPL and that's where he needs to improve greatly, although Henderson doesn't hold a candle to him in any area granted.

Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.

My problem isn't his fee. It's his complete lack of talent/effort/impact. Even if we he got him for a tenner I'd still think we were robbed. He did 'ok' last night but the opposition was hardly high quality - they are currently switzerland's 5th best team!!!
Henderson doesn't do anything that your average pub player can't do. Can we close this thread please?
