he makes so little passes compared to how many other premiership midfielders make, only averaging 39.4 passes per game in the bundesliga compare that to henderson 57.3 passes per game in the PL. But Dahoud's passing success is higher in the league 83.8% compared to hendo 78.8% in the league. The key for me is how creative can they be, how much vision and ambition do they have in their passing, dahoud has attempted an average of 0.2 through balls in the CL, hendo 0.1 in the premiership, fabregas 0.5 in the pl, 0.6 in CL, and considerably more long balls than each other them, that's despite chelsea not having the best of seasons, cese has been a passing maestro. When/if we sign Dahoud we won't be signing the finished article as he's only 20, but we'll be signing a quality player, who will at the very least provide great backup for henderson, and should grow into a world class DM touchwood.
as for tackling, dahoud's right up there 2.3 tackles per match in the CL, 2.1 in the bundes, henderson 2.6 prem, 2.3 europa, fabresgas obviously ahead of them both. dahoud with slightly more dribbles than hendo, fabregas more than each.
even after and if we sign daboud we'll be missing a proper box to box midfielder, that's why I don't know if klopp will scrap looking for a DM, put Can at DM, and just sign a box to box mid.
People might annoyed with me for these comparisons, and say I'm a fan of moneyball, I'm not a fan of moneyball, but I definitely believe statistical evidence can help. agreed stats help big time. i dont want hendo gone, but if dahoud or xhaka or as someone said kroos was to come in that would change

YES YES YES! Praying there is something in this.
He's brilliant. Think a cross between Gundogan and Modric and yeah, he's 20 but he's ready to walk into our first team and run our midfield now. Scores and creates important goals. A bit of a leader by example in the middle of the pitch.

Klopp needs to bring in 3 quality midfield players this summer for his starting 11

We don't even play a 3 man midfield. That's ridiculous.

A bit of a leader by example in the middle of the pitch. not denying his quality, but considering dahoud has made 7 assists this season in 23 appearances (on top of 5 sub), henderson making 3 assists in 15 appearances (in addition to 1 sub) I don't think we can completely justify saying he creates important goals because we don't know how he will do for liverpool yet. yes perhaps, one of his qualities that he has is his long range shooting might prove to be better than hendersons.

We don't even play with a decent keeper !!!!! Mignolet has definitely justified his wage slip over the past 3 games he has been decent, it's come with liverpool's change in playing with lower possession for our attack/team in general, which has meant more shots on target relative to shots in total. He's also faced shots in more saveable positions of the field.
