Yes the RS deservedly won their first premiership title. They were by far the most consistent team and throughout the season never unnecessarily dropped any points. But how and why did that ****ing donkey Henderson win the player of the year this season? He made the most contribution to his team's victories - No. He must have scored the most goals or the most assists - No. He must have had the most 9 graded performances marked by these same writers- No. If it is because he is the captain of the winning team then the likes of Keane should have won a hatful of these over the years. The football writers have sunk even lower in my estimation. Do they even understand football and performances? You have to feel sorry for De Bruyne. What else does he have to do. Last 2 seasons he massively contributed to the record breaking performances of the City team. He was ignored. This season no football writer can convince us that Henderson was a better player or had contributed more to their wins. Those who think I am also saying this because of bitterness of the RS breaking their premiership duck are only partially right. More angry at the blatant injustice or is it superficial lazy nationalism in choosing an English player over a foreign one? They have ****ed up their credibility big time. Rant over.
Nah you're right. Liverpool would've won the league with or without that cart horse. Probably their weakest position as well over the last two seasons. Mind you, no one thinks more of Henderson than Henderson himself. Gerrard must look at him and wonder where it all went wrong.
1999 when United won the treble and Roy Keane was 100 times the player Henderson could ever dream of being, they gave it to David Ginola. Can only assume the criteria has now changed! Can see why it should be someone from the champions, yet van Dyke got it last year ffs.
Should of been De Bryne easily. Remember when them scouse ****s moaned about Giggs winning it years ago, that's nothing with Henderson winning it for god sack he's not even been the best Henderson this season lol
Most footy media/football writers are livpl fans or livpl ex-players. So the idea of giving it to the livpl captain in the season they win it is nothing more than a typical LFC contrived romantic symbolism.
