Henderson's final ball is problematic are 90% go too long. The either go too high or end up going out for a throw or robertson or mane go fetch it. jimmy is right. If he gets it right once in a while he gets it wrong the vast majority of times. Never hits near post. Ever. always back stick and beyond. however we need to look at why. Salah never runs behind. he doesn't cross of his right so many times you ill see him run infield with the ball on his left and try to cross from deep or shoot. As a result his out ball is back to henderson who will be deep and try that cross. Same for TAA. rarely tries to beat anyone. He will either want it played in front of him or if he receives it needs space to cross. If its not there he lays it back to again henderson who's the deeper option. If a side does its job and closes down space then that ball is our only outlet from the right side. We simply don't have the same on the left as we have no midfielder with a left foot. Mane will run infield or try to beat a guy to get to the byline as he's got that mentality. Robertson will try get behind and make driving runs. but when either recycle the ball wijanldum will just crab the ball inside or try play to feet after 6 touches of course What IMO we need is fast passing, more one touch and deliver. thats all. stop taking 2 and 3 touches over everything and **** it if you mess it up. I'd rather a first time shot or cross go wrong now than see extra touches and the chances not coming.
I disagree that first paragraph as you are referring to one ball he tries yet he also regularly fires them along the ground and is the one most likely to attempt the quick ball forward to release the forwards with space to run into . Your last para totally agree with . As i said to Jimmy recently can we go back to pass & move or more precisely quick pass & move .
Hendo can definitely put in a good ball, no doubt, but a lot of balls are just hit and hope. This is not a criticism of just him but the rest of team - we need to not panic and just play on the deck. Leave the long pings to Trent and Thiago We saw it in the first 20-30 mins of the United game where Shaq and Thiago were playing nice passes into feet, on the decks, and we were stretching united. If only we persisted with that, we definitely would have got a goal.
Origi; Does nothing for 2 years: Gets to come on as a sub in the big games and actually start games Minimino; has a blinder against Palace and Scores: Dropped and not allowed to start again. Origi should have been sold... End of
i Think he should have had more chances but I don’t think he’s the right player for Burnley. They physical and minamino has struggled with that so far
