It's not Hendos fault he plays for us.


That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

Because that doesn't fit with the Hendo bashing narrative of the OP.


His bashing in the past had been generally justified. Dunno if it's the player or the way we play but his game has come on under Klopp, which has surprised a few of us.

Questioning his ability is fine as he's not the best. I just don't get why people get personal with it? He's the new Lucas in that respect and there's no real need for it.

He's a genuine lad and gives his all and that's what we need in a player (plus a bit more ability grin).

He's a good player. Tactically switched on, athletic, good in the tackle, decent range of passing.

Is he the most exciting or flashy player? No, but that's not his job. He has a role, and he's the best we have at that role by some distance.

I actually quite like the article in question. It's a good story. From being surplus to requirements to captain of LFC, appearing on the cover of FIFA, and being 90 minutes from leading us to a CL title is a pretty remarkable turnaround. The hatred is silly.

Henderson is developing into a very good player I remember Ronny whelan very unflashy player skill wise but he did a job and did it very well the type of player other players appreciate but we fans don't see because we only see the end result

He's also got character, he could have easily chucked the towel in and moved to another club where he was guaranteed to play and stand out, but he stuck it out to prove he could play for Liverpool, which he has.
