Henderson was decent last night. Henderson could have had two assists but our forwards were off the mark. I think that it was his best game of the season yesterday. He did play a bit better than Milner and Gini, but they were a bit average yesterday. I'd give Henderson 6.8/10 but Gini and Milner 6/10 for yesterday.
Every player Good, Bad or indifferent will have games where they play above some of there average game play, It is about that game play and how consistant you are. Players Like Messi, and Ronaldo are great World Class player and preform like that consistently thier average, but when they have a above average game that are truly magnificent...
Players like Lallana and Henderson games are average so on occasion they have an above average game an d some here will rave about it and try and justify why they are import to the club when others see them for what they are "Average Players"
Take Lallana The other night, play a beautiful pass for a goal, and some where raving about it. I did not point it out at the team as I was caught up in the excitement of the win and Mo Salah's brilliant hat trick, But making one great pass in a 100 is hardly consistently great is it...??
Some players will hit wonder strikes and many never score another goal in thier Career does it make them great players...??
Consistency in play is the key. And Henderson and Lallana for me, are simple consistently average players with consistently average performances
I'm not expecting Henderson to keep this up though.. probably a one off.
Totally agree with you on that
