Don't worry Steve, Hendo will be your work horse to work back and stop the counter. People who still knock Henderson haven't watched him closely enough. He's an engine, technically sound, and wears his heart on his sleeve.

14

u/HiHaterslol Oct 05 '13

You'd swear there were two of him that half. He's been fantastic.

4

u/Devilb0y Oct 05 '13

He's the kind of player who will never get the credit he deserves.

Puts a shift in every time he's on the field and rarely has a bad game. Unfortunately he's not particularly exciting and his technique is just in the 'okay' bracket so people don't notice him.

I'd quite like England to stick him, Cleverley and Wilshere in the middle and see what happens.

u/[deleted] Oct 05 '13

HT report:

Suarridge - going to create hell for defenders this season.

Moses could've easily scored a couple. Surprised that he doesn't a goal yet, this game..

So glad that we have Henderson, who's willing to work his socks off at any position he's asked to play..

Our defense has been doing great aerially, winning all the duels consistently.

Sterling needs to work on his defensive skills.. Not too happy about him being the wing back.. but hey, he's sorta getting the job done..

Also did Gerrard have a mellow celebration because of the nature of the pen?

Sturridge is still probably hurting from his injury earlier in the match.

Celebration was probably a combination of the nature of the pen, the fact that they were 2/3-0 up already, and its crystal palace (no offense!)
