Henderson had a very good game today I thought, was full of running and enthusiasm, tracking back, looking to make something. He has work to do but he'll come good for us. At this point I'm not actually sure what role Joe Allen plays for us, he was pretty anonymous today (apart from the goal, obviously, which maybe some of you think negates my point) just lost in the mix. The best word I can think to use for him is neutral in that he doesn't really defend, doesn't create or attack, anyone?
Ball shuffler. Which is all good when you have available players constantly moving around to receive the ball. Not so good when you have a midfield of 2 and a keeper and 2 centre backs with no passing ability.
Now that you're a mod, I take everything you say seriously... But still, agreed, its a self inflicted FFS
My confidence in him being a good signing has disappeared completely following Borini and Allen by example.
The Lucas effect kicking in, even before Dr Zak has had a chance to rectally examine him! Must admit, I’m looking forward to him signing, not had a decent “perm” in the squad since the days of Craig Johnston

didn't think that makes any dif, as doesn't the player want to move here instead, doesn't matter how good the offer the club get, its whether the player wants to go there.
