But they won’t have the same appreciation, they may agree they’re good but won’t see the full picture of their game as the pros will
I understand Hendersons role. On Friday night it was to protect the back 3 by breaking down play, collecting loose balls and passing it, foward,
sideways when no forward passes are available.
Henderson's problem, and people proved it multiple times with screenshots is there are forward options but he does not take them, he is either unaware of the option, or which means his
awareness is bad or he doesn't have the
confidence to play the pass. Either is bad. When he did try to make these passes, they went nowhere near the intended target.
What happens is Hendo takes the safe and easiest option because of his limited ability, so he ends up making more passes than anybody, sideways. On games where the other midfielders are tight and our defence is playing well, he becomes redundant so he becomes a
passenger. There are times that it is worse, that was demonstrated Friday, where he could not see a pass and tried to dribble it and it got taken right from him by a dutch forward within shooting range. Now I know all players make mistakes, but if you cant see an option you clear it. He was low on
intellegence.
Not long later, somebody in the back 3 passed to him and he passed it back into the penalty box.
