Colback or Henderson

How would you describe him when Rodger’s wanted rid of him ? Most Liverpool fans didn’t rate him back then too 🙄

A very good PL player. There’s Liverpool fans with as sketchy a grasp of football as yourself ynar.
“Shit” Givower man. Keep on doubling. Have a good festive period.

He wasn’t a very good player when Rodger’s wanted rid of him

Fair play to the lad he knuckled down and won over his doubters like his then manager and fans alike
 
Don’t think many appreciated Henderson until he was gone (myself included)

Was easy to look at Colbacks ball retention and think he was a consistent performer, while really he wasn’t doing much apart from receiving and playing easy passes sidewards and backwards.

Hendo on the other hand always wanted to drive forward, whether it be trying to play through balls or carrying the ball. Obviously when this is your style your going to give the ball away a lot. Giving us fans the false perception that Colback was the tidier player. WRONG!

What happened to “shit”?

He was a very good player by safc standards when at safc. He was a very good player at Liverpool by their standards then he kicked on to become an excellent player by anyone’s standards.

I very much appreciated Henderson. Left at the age of 21 and with 78 matches played already. I even thought we got a tad too little for him.
I have no trouble admitting he has turned into a much better player that I would have ever thought

Colback is the best young talent i have ever seen in a Sunderland shirt, he went and played left back today at one of the biggest clubs in Europe and looked like he had been playing there all his life, Johnson and Richards hardly got anything off him. A fine talent

Hard to disagree.
 
Colback would walk into our current midfield.

First half of the 2014 carabo cup final v Man City Colback and Cattermole were the best players on the pitch.

Spoilt himself with his attitude when he joined the scum and that image of Cattermole standing over him after another win v NUFC is immense!
