You see Hendo's "highlight" reel from the Burnley match doing the rounds?...he keeps putting in performances like that I'd accept 10 pence for our captain.

saw the game at the time as for once i had a good stream ,just ****ing typical that , Henderson was no worse than the rest (subs excepted) not that is saying much.
my view on him is that the injury has left him unable to fully utilise his strengths so emphasising his weaknesses but at least he tries to protect the defence. I'm still unsure what Wini was bought for unless one of Lala , Firm or Couts is sold because if it was for CM nothing i have seen from him in the PL suggests he can do it.

But he's not playing in the right set up for him - he needs a playmaker behind him and a ball winner next to him, and he's the one who makes the runs into the box and does all the work off the ball.

The whole team needs a ball winner next to them!

Point is, you keep saying he's a squad playing but also keep saying he's not good enough. Surely it's one or the other?
 
We have improved our squad and made a profit at the same time - how much we have improved by remains to be seen.

It's hard to tell until we have a fully fit squad.

Unfortunately as I've said..you could sell any one of those 4 and I'd not notice the difference over the entire season lol

Yes - he's not good enough to be a regular starter but he's OK to fulfil a specific role occasionally.

If we don't play to his strengths, then we may as well sell him (applies to everyone really).

Prediction. Out of:

Lallana
Firmino
Coutinho
Gini

Who is going to actually get consistent at the best end of their game? Who will produce over a majority of games rather than one in three?

sorry i don't gamble

honestly evidence suggests you might as well roll a dice though the one i find most irritating is Couts random , wild ,long range shots 7 times per game after a match he scores in. He rarely seems to look for the incisive pass anymore.

Admittedly my irritation with Couts is partially we know what he can do the frustration being we don't see it often enough

He doesn't trust the players around him, Jimmy will explain that one <ok>
