Clearly The problem is Henderson. Despite what the stars say he Clueless, one dimensional and the chief culprit of slowing our transition play down. I don't buy the argument that he covers ground and has 95 completed passes a game since most of them are sideways rather than forward. He adds very little as he often takes the safe pass. Not good enough for me both in central midfielder and as a captain. No wonder kloop is after midfielders. Is Klopp ready to take captaincy off him and drop him too? why doesnt any stupid Barca or spuds come in and offer money for hendo . FFS if anyone needs dropping from this midfield its hendo

He is coming back from injury, we'll have to see.

When the team is firing his lack of effectiveness is overlooked The only difference currently is the team is sluggish and his "form" is exposed as a significant part of the problem.

Think the turning point of the match was when Benteke missed the chance which was pulled back from the goal line for him at 0-0 in the second half, if that went in aI would of fancied Palace to hold out but they never and the mistake they made give us the break instead, test was the only difference between the two teams for me.. Again, showing your stupidity  This whole if they had of scored stuff is clutching at straws. You're too easy. wouldnt it say more about you being stupid that you have to insult a person just because you don't agree with his post.... But quite a few of your posts are stupid beyond limit annoying lots of posters here. It not insulting but saying things as they are felt. You also know what you are doing, there was a reason why you got banned a number of times.

It's so easy to bash Henderson, why not Wijnaldum? He's had an absolutely dreadful start to the season and offered very little last season, why doesn't he get the same stick Henderson does? It's most probably because he's Dutch and cost £25million.

I agree, none of our 3 CM players have played well so far, the balance just doesn't feel quite right to me, we are really missing Coutinho/Lallana's creativity in there. I'd be tempted to put one of them on the bench, try Firminho in MF and put Solanke ufront.

I think he's an awful player, really poor and limited in ability, just don't see what he brings to the team, Newcastle United fleeced us good style for 25 million quid, at least Dick Turpin wore a mask when he robbed people... It was Coventry who "didst verily fleece us" for the services of the clumsy field mouse they call Hendo.

I'm a big fan of Wijnaldum. I loved him at feyenoord and PSV. It annoyed me when Newcastle signed him. He's a do it all midfielder. But it would be nice if we had some specialty midfielders. As Can and Henderson are way too similar.
If we had a mascherano or hamann type player we would be in a better position.

This is what Klopp actually did in the 2nd half against Palace and it worked. Hopefully it will be continued as the preferred tactics

If we had a mascherano or hamann type player we would be in a better position. have to totally disagree with you there Hamann and Mascherano were both woeful probably the most limited midfielders we have ever signed especially Mascherano who was a terrible liability. One of the reasons we started to fall from grace was we started to sign un-Liverpool like players and these two fell into that category, all they did was one specific job which was break up play and nothing st all else, when had we ever signed such limited players, Souness, McMahon Ronnie Whelan could all do the defensive stuff but brought so much more to the table going forward too, you measure them against other midfielders at the time who were Liverpool type players like Keane and Veira and then you realise how poor Hamann and Mascherano actually were.. Players like sourness McMahon and Whelan don't exist in the modern game. That's the difference. It's impossible to say we should sign players like the ones we signed 30 years ago. Even players like Keane and Viera they played for the best teams. (Invincibles/treble winners) they were special players but they had one job really. Defend. Pass the ball forward. Masch and hamann did that for us. Obviously I'd rather us sign players like Neymar and Messi but that's not gonna happen so when I say players like hamann and Masch it's just because they have been some of our better signings recently.
