Looking angry and grunting may be passionate, but that doesn't mean he's a good captain. We need leaders and players whose heads don't drop - despite playing in a different role, Hendo cannot influence a game.
Whoever binned Gerrard mid season needs shooting. We had a perfectly good captain especially for big derbies and big matches.
When your arse leaks, wear a nappy mate. "Duhh the fact that he patently thinks" wtf are you blatheing on about. "The fact that you patently think Hendo patently thinks" more like There's some actual irony for you right there idiot.
All these "gloating" threads were destined to come back to haunt us when things turn sour #lessonforsomeone
This, and besides, if you are gonna give it socks when the going is good, you gotta take the knocks when things are not going good. #iminvincible
Strange logic. So, if we win 100 games straight with hendo as captain and lose the next 2 it means it doesn't bode well. Wonde how many clubs change their captain after 2 defeats? Duhh.. frank and beans mate. frank and beans
Your 2 biggest games of the season He showed with that penalty fiasco that he's not got authority within that team
You call it a fiasco in your sensationalist Daily mail way Tobes. That was a storm in a tea cup and you know it, but to suit your totally skewed view on reality you blow it up totally out of proportion. To add weight to my opinion you are daily mailing it, Henderson was captain a wet week when that happened and it was Badon who decided to go against the team set up of who will take the peno and Henderson, even though his nose was put out of joint still congratulated Badon and they sorted it out. No doubt it was discussed after the match. Now how you put a bad spin on that is exactly why I call your ramblings "daily mailing". You really have no idea how modern media has mouled your outlook lad.
Rant away but that would never have happened if he was a genuine leader. Would Gerrard have allowed that to happen?
And as for our two bigges games of the season. Arsenal, Toure and Moreno were prime suspects in an altogether poor porformance by the team.. Henderson's fault? Hardly, you clown Man United? Moreno went missing twice to leave Mata totally free to score both goals. Henderson's fault? Hardly, but that doesn't fit in with your yahtzee logic. Gerrard comes on, captain? gets sent off in 38 secs Also, to just take a young lad and expect him to become something he is not immediately and without error is laughable. Gerrard was not always captain and at Hendos age he wasn't captain material. Why let common sense get in the way of a good daily mailing eh Tobes
Gerrard had time to grow as a captain because he had Hyypia, Carragher and other experienced players around him. Henderson has no one; just a bunch of kids and older players with no balls. He's doing fine.
