Really enjoying watching Curtis Jones play. That lad is definitely going places. Defo start him v the bitters.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If he was a yard or two quicker he'd have WC potential.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Speed of thought is quick, protects the ball and dribbles it well.
Not seen his range of passing but he is tenacious with it.
Hendo passing out the back is brilliant.

I said the other day that Henderson is rapidly becoming Englands best CB.
Im not even joking.

Recent results would probably go against that.

He's played well regardless of results. Hardly put a foot wrong in fact.

Will be interesting who Klopp will move back into midfield when Fabinho is back given how well Hendo is doing there.
posted on 16/2/21
It'll be Hendo. I don't think he particularly enjoys playing there. We need one of the two in the there for the passing though, great way to break the first press and is so important to us.

Well done to liverpool and Klopp a lot were expecting another defeat, credit where it's due

Agree he’s not a natural CB as seen by his mistake at the end

How many of the goals we’ve conceded would you put down to Henderson?
