Jordan Henderson

[Shaggy]

I love the attitude, its something we've been missing, I just find it all a bit cringy when we have people saying that one of our players would tear someone apart based on chest pumping and attitude on a football pitch

I know what you mean, it's mostly for show isn't it.

He's big now though isn't he?
Noticeable how's he's bulked up through gym work over the last 12-18 months.

Footballing wise the biggest difference this year is his range of passing, previously everything was less than 10 yards now he's confident enough to drill a diag and switch play.

His soft ankle fade volley out to Moreno (I think) in the latter stages was a thing of beauty

Yeah he's visibly bigger and stronger. Loved him standing up to Costa and making him look small.

I rarely like the pushing and shoving on a pitch. But Costa is such a snide, its nice to see him getting it back. Thats rare and people seem terrified of him, it allows him to bully opposition defenders.

Not with Double Hard ******* Jordan though.

[Assassin]

I think Henderson like a lot of other people know that he is a horrible, cowardly, snidey piece of **** who is currently getting away with a lot on the pitch. Henderson standing up to him puts the spotlight on him and his antics. Without sounding biased, in nearly every game I have seen him play in, he should have been sent off.

As someone else pointed out, Costa is the type of player you'd want in your team though!

I wouldn't want him anywhere near my team. He's the type of player in todays game I hate. He's able to get away with being a snide **** as there's very little opponents can do to him on the pitch.

Fair enough

[Lecter]

Lets be honest though, its not difficult to be a "hard" on a football pitch at this level though is it. It always ends up with handbags at 6 paces, an amusing spectacle to see the chests come out and the heads start pecking back and fourth like chickens hunting for worms, but in reality nothing ever happens.

A lot of it is bluff and bluster but there are still some things that go on here and there

Some players are genuinely ****ing hard as nails and we had one of the toughest and most feared on our books until a couple of years back

Downing ?

I think Costa is a rough lad though, hes a snide but I do reckon he'd be quite a tough lad

Downing ?

Soto!

Suarez was no different. We were just blind to it because of his genius.

[Vermilion]

Soto!

He was great wasn't he! A monster!

Personally I think Costa leaves his foot in and elbow in far more than Suarez (and is generally more physical)

Suarez was a ****ing cheat though

That Giraffes face!

How they got in into a navy blue top i'll never know!
