"Best game Henderson has played and scoring was a bonus for him. Looked as though he'd put"Duracell"batteries in for tonight's game. He was everywhere.Too many free kicks around pen area.A better team would have capitalised on them. Finishing top of the group good for confidence."
"Brendan, why didn't you sub a player when we got into injury time? we almost lost the game if di natale's strike had found the net. Again and again we cannot take the chances. But a win is a win for me. YNWA!"
"AHAHAHA what did I say ages ago? PLAY JORDAN IN A MORE ADVANCED ROLE. This one game means nothing but every time he has been through he's put it away and without fail. Only a handful of chances ever our Jordan and he still tucks them away. I remember that one from the edge of the box and he got it in the roof of the net. HAVE FAITH IT'S ONLY 1-0 BUT WE WON!"
"Well done Hendo. Some of us never doubted you lad. Some will say one swallow does not make a summer and such. Ignore them lad and keep on doing what you're doing. "
"Buddha, your infinite wisdom can't touch a fiery performance from JH, you just can't and there's no debating. He played his guts out and after the goal he got even better. TOTAL CONFIDENCE PLAYER, give him some damn support!"
"
I almost had an heart attack with the last shoot of Di Natale ! But great performance, perfect for the confidence of the lads, especially Hendo !Come on Reds !!!"
"Scousemorals . Some idiot redahead(wherever he is!lol) got ridiculed by LDW/Buddha and co for suggesting putting Hendo in an advanced role. The lad knows where the box is and was screaming for the ball."
"Good win. We made it hard as always in the end. I just believe Suso still have long way to go. His defending needs a lot of work. Downing is out for me for sure. Oh Kenny he's better than you thought and better than Mata! Henderson is a definite sub! He almost cost us the game. I'm sorry but how many players do we have to buy and how much. Oh! One of those wins you go to bed feeling you lost!"
"Udinese played really well and they could have easily got the draw with the last kick of the game, luckily DiNatale missed. Armero who was linked with Liverpool in the summer, he looked excellent and kept Johnson quiet for most of the game, he could be good signing in the January."
"I've been saying for months and months just what potential stewie and jordan have and they're young still, bags of time and potential. Suso needs more game time he's a cracking player. Shelvey needed to be more advanced because he can score, but had a great game all the same. Chuffed."
"Great match.
Very unlucky not to have scored at least 1 more goal.
which would have meant 1st spot.
Great group though. Anzhi,liverpool and young boys all finishing with 10 points.
Best part of it is most players got at least a couple of chances to play.
liverpool player played well through out the group stage.
so great job YNWA."
"congrats to henders for putting us through the knock out stages.you know when rodgers got the ball n dint want to let go of it, i was just thinking yeah you shouldnt, if you do the italians might just score. with the amount of pressure they were piling on us."
"All the boys were fantastic except one anxious moment we almost got knocked out by Natanale pile diver. The final quarter we need to manage more diligently. Hendo, hats off for you boy. Think this is the break you have had wanted. Pick up from here. YNWA. "
"Lucas Leiva has to be the PERFECT role model for Jordan Henderson, if Hendo makes that same journey he will be just like another Lucas but in his own right.
I believe Jordon will get there in the end, I really do. Just keep at it Hendo, you've two great assets lad, your atude and your energy. Your technigue and abilities will develop in time."
"Well done.The most important=we got through.Bonus for Hendo,very good display.As much as he was good,Downing was bad.Others-well done,as I said.Shelvey and Allen were solid,Skrtel,too.Keep fighting,boys!YNWA>"
"JORDAN HENDERSON, WELL DONE. SOME 44 DOUBLE D REGULARLY DESCRIBES JORDAN AS A 'MISFIT' AND HAS BEEN KNOWN TO SAY 'HENDERSON DOESN'T RESEMBLE A FOOTBALLER'. LFC'S RESIDENT 'EXPERT' PROBABLY COULDN'T GET A GAME IF HIS LOCAL ALE HOUSE TEAM ONLY HAD 7 MEN. "
"The Italians were outpassed, outsmarted and outmanouvred. Very good win away from home which sends the right mesage for teh game against Alladyce long people team. Congrats Henderson. Every fan is happy for you and the team."
"Frankly, that game was painfully unspectacular; the only reason why we are all sounding positive right now is because Di Natale decided a big grin at the end of a game is better than a goal. Terrible game."
"WELL DONE BOYS YNWA on a side note i thought when raheem came on he would have gone left with downer right sterling would have murdered their injured right back but hey i'm being picky"
"NAYSAYER, I CAN SEE IT NOW, "WHY AREN'T YOU CELEBRATING THAT GOAL SON ?" "I CAN'T BRING MYSELF TO CHEER DAD, IT WAS A MISKICK BY A MISFIT." HUMBLE PIE ANYONE ??"
"LFC THRU+THICK+THIN. I JUST HOPE THERES MORE HUMBLE PIE TO COME. I HOPE THERE'S THAT MUCH THAT BUDDHA HAS TO HAVE LAXATIVES TO REMOVE THE PIE FROM HIS STOMACH."
"Scousemorals...can't see any potential whatso' with Downing. He had it in his early 20's but he has never (imo) fulfilled it! Thought KD might have prised something out of him, but no! He's got no tricks, no pace and no grit! sorry mate, don't see it and never have."
"Dont know about anyone else,but that second half display was atrocious. BR dis nothing about it either,which is very un-nerving.Any half-decent team would have beaten us tonight.Very worried."
"Well done lads. Glad for Hendo. And Buddha is a naysayer- it's a wonderful name mate, and you can change the last word as the child changes his numbers. lol"
"who is the lad that lost the ball in the middle of the pitch. put his pics . I don't what some have fans have with allen but this guy play with his heart. he chase every ball and relaunch our game as scholes do like man u. maybe he lost 3 ball in many passes but how many downing lost"
"hendo may be have been a little better but we fans need consistency and he look heavy. we can't put too many holding midfield on the pitch. we will never score. prefer suso than hendo because suso make movement for other to pass him whereas hendo wait for the ball"
"KINGOFCLUBS - I completely understand what you're saying, but I say exactly the same about Jordan and previous great players who've been here through history and have flopped - Despite a hefty wage packet, the pressure is unreal and the fans haven't been tolerant at all, it's got to take it's toll on your confidence..."
"I do feel for fans who just want the best for their team. I don't wish to eliminate constructive criticism but to slate players when they under perform isn't supporting, it's just creating yet another obstacle for players who are trying to justify their overpriced wages. We are one, let's unite and give these boys what they need. YNWA."
