Match Day Thread Vs West Ham (A)

Virgil never over-elaborates. He doesn't try anything tricky in dangerous situations, if required he punts the ball into the stand rather than try a Cruyff turn or whatever. He does all the basics expertly, and in addition he reads the game so well.

 

.....and he smells nice.

 

I always play the percentages when defending, thought this was just something all defenders did tbh. VVD is just better at it

 

when you say ‘defending’, I assume you mean defending your opinion on here?

 

That could be half right....

 

Wouldn't know, never needed to do that mate

 

Henderson it's playing so well at the moment, he's making all his critics eat their words.

 

Including a lot of us on here.

For that reason, the way hes stuck out all the early stick he got and now has fully become a real captain of this club, the way he conducts himself is exceptional on and off the pitch. also the possibility of lifting a fair few cups over the next few years could lift his status right up there with some of the clubs all time legends by the time he leaves or retires.

 

He’s been brilliant for the past couple of months.

 

Faint praise?

 

He got his hands on a trophy, liked it and wants more. What can you say ......

 

I did say this a few weeks ago; got his sights set on that PL trophy. He already knows (twice) what it feels like to miss out and he's determined it's not happening a third time!

 

You're right.

I can't work out whether he's back to what he was before that sending off when we really missed him in the last few games or whether he's reinventing himself and is better than he's ever been.

 

A bit of both? He's got over various injury issues and is back to what he was but Klopp as worked with him on his weaker areas
