"Lets pay tribute to Hendo here. This boy has taken more than his fair share of stick since he has come in. Like Lucas he has shown that you can kick him down but he won't stay there for long. He has proven that he has more than what it takes to wear the red shirt. Bottom line here is that he can walk into ANY PL team...he has superb talent. Well done Hendo....this is the stuff legends are made of."
"Jordan's one for the future and is beginning to show the form when selected. Consistency is what is needed and he is beginning to do that in each game. To show his willingness to play against QPR is proof of dedication. Good luck Jordan. "
"Assaidi injured but why as sub? He should be resting or fly straight to cup of nations....mind boggling decision...keep on fighting Redmen! 3pts tomoro pls! YNWA!"
"Curious and nice anectode on Hendo and the lads! hope they will recover well for tomorrow game and BR will be on the bench! Anyway congrats for the good job done to Mike Marsh and Colin Pascoe! Happy New Year both! That it's for them a proficuous and successful 2013! YNWA"
"hendo has shown that he is not a flop, as has most of the others. building a team from the few good players left after the financial meltdown was always going to take a few seasons. kk laid the foundations now little ben has the opportunity to build on that "
"well done jordan. at least you are fighting for the honour to wear the red shirt. it would be easy to pull a sickie but you gave your best and got an assist early on. also pleased how many times you were in the box supporting. well done. YNWA"
"Praise where praise is due. I have criticisee hendo many times but he showed guts yesterday and played well. Let's hope this bug does not go through the whole team. I agree he should not have gone near other players when the goals went in "
"Some might be uncharitable and say that you have been in quarantine since you arrived or be unkind and wishing that you are quarantined whilst you remain at LFC. I myself, wish that you take a good hard look at yourself and ask if you have what it takes to succeed here. If not then you should be sold but if by chance you mend your ways then you will be welcomed to stay. Its up to you sir. "
"Happy New Year everyone. New years resolution - I will never ever mention Buddha's name again. I will stop writing Buddha stories. I will refrain from getting into arguments with Buddha."
"22 years young Bull.He learns and do the work.I think he will be as good as he really wanted to be,two or three years maybe sooner we will see it.Is really up to his motivation."
"redahendo, solely because of you I am going to pray that Hendo comes good. Surely, even you must know that playing a few decent games is not what you expect from a 20m player. I watch Mata, a player who was available to us, week in and week out deliver sterling plays or look at Cazorla who cost much less. You need to have a quiet word with your namesake and urge more effort or he is out out out. "
"Buddha - I dont think its effort he needs to improve on. The bare bones are there. He has the correct build,stamina, a good touch, an excellent atiitude. He's lacking somewhat in confidence in the company of the likes of SG. He gets criticism for not tackling yet he can nick the ball from the opponents toes, although this normally goes unnoticed for some reason. (contd)"
"His one touch football is the best around and his workrate is Kuyt-esq. He's had a wake up call from BR but rather than burying his head in the sand he's stood up and shown that he wants to fight for the privilege of wearing the red shirt. If he continues to fight he will prove his worth, Im confident he will."
" BRadmirer , i didn't mean like for like, but if we had a player not 100% the likes of assadi could shuffled in , any way i dosnt matter the team was fantastic on the day i was merely pointing out that we don't use this talent enough IMO. THX Mr Intelligent "
"redahendo, I feel you are extolling his attributes a touch overboard. Yes he has stamina, but as can be expected for a premiership player. He does not score, make killer passes, tackle noticeably or changes games, these are not the hallmarks of a top player. He is a jack of a few trades and definitely master of none. But we can only hope, eh. "
"At his present rate he will never play for England with young players like Wilshere, Chamberlaine, Cleverly and our very own Jonjo well ahead of him. He just seems to have gone backwards since his Sunderland days or he has been found out at the top level. "
"Buddha - I think you have got me misunderstood because of my moniker. I am named redahendo, not because of Jordan Henderson but because I like to attend Hen do's (bacholorette parties) But I was lazy with the hyphen and thus have been cast as being one of Hendo's parents."
"redahendo, that is the most shameless piece of name dodging I have ever read. Its up there with Shirley Crabtree, who tried to explain that his feminine sounding name was a ruse to hide his overt masculinity and give his opponents a false sense of hope everytime they entered the ring with him."
"WHY IS IT THE FAULT OF THE PLAYER IF HE CAME IN ON A BIG TICKET. THESE GUYS DID NOT PUT A GUN TO OUR HEADS TO PAY BIG MONEY. ALL YOU DOUBTERS BEWARE,. THESE KIDS WILL PUT EGG ON YOUR FACES ...SOONER THAN I THINK. DO SOME OF YOU WATCH AND PRAY FOR SOME OF OUR KIDS TO HAVE A BAD GAME JUST SO YOU CAN COME ON AND SAY "I told you so""
"Hey Hendo, what's that Bug called? All the rest want to get it it because if it makes you play as well as you did last match, everyone wants it now :) Why did it have the opposite effect on Brendo?"
"Hendo's got nothing to prove to anyone. He has shown immense fighting spirit and his atude at QPR should surely quash any negativity regarding his will to "mend his way"....whatever that means. The boy has more than earned the right to stay and wear the red shirt. What energy....what determination....what enthusiasm....WHAT. A PLAYER YOU GONNA BE FOR US.....GO JORDAN......YOU GO BOY."
"Stoke have only gained i point from their last two games after beating us and Swansea have been dropping points, now we are only 1 point behind both having played a game less than them! Win tomorrow night against Sunderland and we'll be into 8th place! C'mon reds! time to start moving up the table eh? Go for it! Beat those Makems! "
"ForeverRed- I rarely take sides (or comment for that matter) in these discussions, but I am liking your stance more and more lately. Always supportive. Always constructive. More supporters like ForeverRed please."
"thaired69.....Assaidi plays in a different position and has different role, if you dont know that maybe you should watch a little longer before commenting.
"
"i am just angry now with the fact that assaidi is not getting any chance i am sure he will play in f.a cup but i think his performance so far showed us that he is not scared and give his all.. i was hoping this festive season's hectic schedule would be an opportunity for him 2 impress us all but he has not even came off the bench"
"Has anyone noticed whenever any team beat us especially at home they go through a rough time the very following week? Look at Bolton,remember they beat us last season?
"
"Beating the bug and QPR at the same time away is no easy task. Kudos to Jordan playing so well when he was not feeling well. We need more players like him! Players who want to play for the club and not the money. Players like Suarez, Gerrard, Skrtl and Agger who would definitely earn more elsewhere but instead chose to be with us! YNWA!"
"You're so right, thaired669. What has BR got against Assaidi. I thought you wanted LFC to play good football. There are very few on the books who can match his skill. He should be given 90 mins. for three consecutive games, and then judge him BR. He plays so rarely, that each time he plays he has to be introduced to his teammates."
"The fact that Jordan played despite feeling sick shows his commitment. If all the players showed his desire against Villa and Stoke, those games would've ended up differently. "
"PoolboyUSA.....I can take the constructive stuff anyday but personal attacks are not called for. This is definitely not the LFC way. LFC history is as much about our KNOWLEDGEABLE fans, as it is about our trophy cabinet. We have EARNED a reputation for being VERY special. We have been the benchmark and envy of opp fans in the way we idolize our stars and make them feel special. YNWA-JFT96"
