ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

Just on this - again lots of people dont rate / like henderson, but they miss him when is not there. He was the clubs (fan voted) player of the year, Football writers player of the year and the highest ranked Liverpool player of the Players player of the year award behind KDB. Do they all know something you dont?
His game is running covering as much ground in the quickest time, hes the liverpool system in a nut shell , I will concede is hoof up the pitch is more accurate, try watching him for England without laughing I find it impossible.
 
It really isnt mate. Go back through the past winners, and you instantly remember the sporting reason they won it, with a few exceptions. (Beckham and Giggs basically, as in there isnt an instant recall of a specific event).

If Covid hadnt laid waste to sport, the Olympics in particular, I doubt he would be on it.
Agreed. Michael Owen once won it.

Don’t let the mask slip over this, you’ve been doing really well recently.

Liverpool fans’ opinion - no more needs to be said

Football writers’ opinion - see above

Liverpool players’ opinion - Lol
 
Never watch Sports Personality of the Year on BBC, The expressions on the faces of the sporting audience is worth a quick look. Half look embarrassed and the other half look as if they wish they were somewhere else. The one thing they all have in common is that they all know they haven't won.

You're normally a very measured poster, but I do find this rather ridiculous mate.

Liverpool fans opinions, are not worth their paper they are written on. Thats pretty obligatory.

Football writers I think bought into the story of a bang average footballer who turned themselves into a good player. However he was a million miles away from being their best player, never mind the leagues best player. Indeed a lot of their own fans don't even rate him and want him dropped for Keita.

As I've said from the summer, Wijnaldum is a lot better than him and their best midfielder, it's funny a few of them have actually started to notice this now, months after I pointed it out.

There is no credible argument to be made that Jordan Henderson is in the top 6 sports people in this country. It's an insult to all those, from minority backgrounds who get overlooked and who produce far more than him.

The "football writers" are filled with Liverpool fans, so that award is basically Liverpool fans banding together and trying to nominate their captain as player of the year, to try to give some sheen to a title which is essentially not valid in the eyes of 99% of neutral fans. It doesn't work, and the net indirect consequence is that people of colour and women get overlooked as a result for other awards. So great work from them, again.

They all just look like they're still trying to work out if Clare Balding is packing meat or not.
