Scholes reckon Henderson is the dogs bollocks and a leader:

I think Jordan Henderson has done really well. He's had a great couple of game so far.

People have said he's a safe option but he's played some good forward passes and been a leader.

Henderson is decent, but he isn't Gerrard and that leads a lot of our ('Pool) fans to under-rate him.

i would say he wasn't wrestled. That Nigerian guy goes down easily and can easily stay on his feet

However when you see someone with an arm around like this, then it's a foul in my book and he's not going to get anything if he doesn't go down

And what about the Nigerian guy behind them pushing the Argie? A foul?

TBH being compared to gerrard is not a great scenario for anyone. If you take the armband as a midifelder right after gerrard as well it become almost inevitable.

He is what he is as a player. Honest and hard working and decently skilled.

Probably lucas suffered somewhat at outset as he was compared to mascherano and alonso as a yuong player finding his feet. He got to where he got to pre knee injury and was flying at his peak fitness.

Kind of like darren fletcher at utd. once he was at peak fitness and flying he was at a very different level to he player who came back form his IBS issues.

Henderson's injury problem is my concern, I think he can perform at the highest level. We have got Keita now, is Jordan still going to play
in CM?

At this moment I think the middle three will be Keita, Henderson and Fabinho. Until Chamberlain is back to full fitness and we sign someone else.
 
Neville saying it wasn't a penalty for handball by his ex teammate Hernandez, but he knows full well they've been given for less.
It was a blatant handball but the Mexican got away with it imo.
