Really?
I thought Fernandinho was better than him to be honest. He did everything Henderson did and more.
Fernandinho had an excellent game as well, but Henderson and him are in slightly different roles.
I think of Fernandinho as a springboard, with Henderson more of a steering wheel, in the Volante mould.
I said in the pre game thread that to win it, we had to have someone sit on Fernandinho, get right up in his face and rush him.
Milner tried to do it, but he was bypassed too easily, and by the time the subs were made, they were sitting deeper, so it became a moot point.
