Only saw about 35 mins of first half, but from what i saw nobody passed to him - his game is quick passes in tight situations and keeping possession to create spaces for the telling pass. It was like no one would pass to the new kid. The ball was played back and then hoofed up field over his head. You would think capello would be able to get the midfield/defence to play to his strength, otherwise why bother playing him. The way they were getting the runaround in the middle of the park they should have had cattermole in to bite some ankles.
 
like a rabbit in the headlights and overawed by the occasion, sadly.

fckin bollocks mate:evil:... doin what hes been told to do.
not his game.. but did canny considering...
his pass % must have been 90+ easy..
WELL DONE JORDAN LAD.. DONE US PROUD.....
 
Done ok after a quiet first half when he barely touched the ball (not the only one mind the lot of them were poor) After the break he done better used the ball well when he had it barely misplaced a pass bit of a rash tackle for his booking dont get away with them in international football but in all a steady but unspectacular debut. Probablys back to the U21s after this to gain more needed experience

Yes, it would have been far better for him if he had chased the French midfield and had allowed himself to be ripped a new arsehole - clown. :confused:

First year of watching football is it? If so you have my apologies. :oops:
 
It doesnt help jordan when Gerrard decides to vacate his position and go for glory, leaving a novice to be swamped in midfeild.

i did enjoy the way ITV both blamed Gerrard for the 2nd goal and then made him man of the match.

It makes perfect sense.
 
you'll like how winter slates him here then...

mentions french geting past him as alarming....but no names when the second goal is mentioned

Im afraid, with red and white goggles off, Henry Winters assessment is, in the main (last 10 mins aside)pretty accurate.

But of course, Ill be reprimanded by the experts of the SMB regardless of whether a respected broadsheet journailst agrees mainly with my own thoughts. If i remember rightly, Winter was also high in praise for Henderson pre match. It isnt southern based media bias.

Aye, like I take any note of what Henry winter has to say.

If Henderson had been an Arsenal player his verdict would be different. such journalists are cretins and shouldnt be let near a football match.
 
Only english midfielder not to to give the ball away, only english midfielder not to look terrified when he got the ball, only english midfielder not to launch it as far as he could, the only english midfielder not trying to hit the hoddle pass every time and at times he was the only english midfielder :lol:

the short sightedness of some of our supporters night is shocking.

Henderson is a good footballer, has a lot of potential and has had mostly a good season so far. Tonight he was poor. A spectator with little bravery in the first half and improved slightly in the second.

I respect that your opinion differs to mine, but I think when the rags are distributed tomorrow, Henderson wont emerge with flying colours.

Of course he wont - he doesnt play for the top 4.

He did fine tonight.

The game was lost in midfield. He is correct. There were two players in the centre of the park who failed to get a grip of the game in particular. Henderson and Barry
 
too many red & white rose tinted specs on here about our young lad.
In truth no one can say he played well because he didn't .
he wasn't the worst because Barry was terrible, Milner was poorand Gerrard was in and out
Winter is correct
He was easily by passed , His positional play and movement wasn't good and his touches of the football apart from two were hurried and negative.
Feel sorry for him really because I cannot say he added anything to an average team.

Gareth Barry wont either. He plays top four at the minute. Walcott wont. Several top 4 players wont. Its borderline paranoia

You were watching the same match as me. I don't know what the other buggers on her were watching. As for Andy carroll, he's good in the air but I've yet to see evidence of a first touch.

i lost interest at 'neither Jay Bothroyd or Jordan looked ready' and gave up at 'Henderson, utterly anonymous'.

Even taking off the red and white glass to call Bothroyd not ready is as melodramtic as i'd expect from that shite, he only had 20 minutes and did pretty much everything Carrol did in the equivalent time, yet Carroll is 'showing promise'...
