"We opened with a quiz, and so we’ll close with a quiz. All these stats refer to players who played only in midfield and logged at least 2,000 minutes.
Player number one: he was the busiest player in the league, making 87.4 passes per 90 minutes.
Player number two: he had the best touch in the league among midfielders, guilty of only 0.4 unsuccessful touches per 90 minutes.
Player number three: he was the hardest midfielder to dispossess, losing the ball to an opponent only 0.5 times per 90 minutes.
Take your time on this one.
Need hints? All three of these players played for a team in red shirts.
More? All three of these players wore number 14.
The answers? Jordan Henderson, Jordan Henderson, and Jordan Henderson. And from now on, that’s JFH for short."
Jog on
not the biggest hendo fan nor do i think he is bad as some people here think but all the stats you mentioned actually doesnt matter. Lets take can for example, he loses the ball more then hendo but then again he tries to produce more then hendo too.
Too many times hendo passes it sideways and doesnt take the risk. Cou losses ball alot too, but then he produce magic aswell. Hendo rarely rarely does that.
We need a CM who can produce more, or get it rolling much faster then hendo does. We need a real link up player who gets it out from the defense and pass it to the attackers.
What i am trying to say is, stats doesnt paint the whole picture.
