Henderson:

"Stevie's probably not only the best captain for Liverpool and before with England, but in the game itself.....But off the pitch he conducts himself brilliantly too."

That saying about someone not being as thick as they look - doesn't apply to "Hendo".

I remember this.

So glad Bryan Robsons prediction turned out to be wrong...
 
Henderson:

Really?........ didn't he just recently have an injunction about some row in the street him and his missus had? and the odd bar-room brawl (sorry night-club punch up to the sophisticated) that he likes to engage in....
 
RAWK:

Lastly, there has been some suggestion last year’s title challenge was some sort of fluke. While no one expected it, the rise into the top 4 certainly wasn’t a fluke. Liverpool’s expected goal ratio, which I found to have strong correlation (R2=0.78) with points earned, has risen since the 10/11 season where they posted a XGR of just 53.8, they’ve had an XGR of 0.636, 0.637 and last seasons 0.655 since that poor 10/11 season. In fact, they are the only team to have an XGR >0.60 to finish outside the top 4 (twice) in the last 4 seasons. It’s almost like there was a plan in place.

I think what he means is Suarez was ace.
