Lallana and Pogba is a better comparison. Both playing as a the most advanced player in a midfield three.

This season there's only one winner in that comparison.

Henderson is garbage. Emre Can is much better, idk how Henderson starts for Liverpool.

Henderson.

Underrated by most fans and probably overrated by pool fans.

Just needs to add a few more goals to his games.

Most passes and pass completion rate are red herring stats.

In the Anfield derby Marouanne Fellaini had the highest pass completion rate on the pitch...


----------------------------------------------------------------------

But only completed 39 passes all game which was the lowest of any outfield player.

I agree in part but when you are literally hundreds of completed passes ahead of the next person it starts to have some gravitas.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

It depends entirely on what he's doing with the ball..
Comparative chance created stats, assists and key paces would be more interesting to me, and relevant.

If he's passed the ball to his CB or midfield partner 300 times, that doesn't mean he's better than a more wasteful player who tries to create chances...
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I actually agree but they are playing different roles.

Henderson is passing more times and with greater accuracy. Henderson makes 1.4 key passes a game Pogba 1.9 which you would expect given the zones that they are operating in.

Defensively Henderson is more than doubling interceptions and tackles which again you would expect given the zones.

Ultimately I wouldn't actually trade Henderson for Pogba (this season) because I think Jordan is our most important player in that we have no-one to replace him in terms of defensive contribution and passing range and I'm sure Utd would say the same as there is no-one that can replace Pogba's skill set at Utd.

It's like comparing England to France.

Thereby the comparison becomes simple

More quality in Pogba's left arsecheek than Henderson has
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We're rating players ar$es now?

Do you like them muscly and firm or with a bit of bounce to them?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I think the Scottish guys on here seem a little bit bent.

Yesterday there was one that said they didn't like David May because they didn't find him attractive.

Bufties.

Pogba is good at dabbing, I give him that.

Not a lot else really though.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Apart from scoring goals, creating goals, completely passes both short and long range, dribbling, shielding the ball, winning aerial battles, dictating the tempo of games...

Yeah, but apart from that, he's rubbish, you're right.

Perhaps Henderson should too then, laughable and embarrassing to suggest he's near Pogba as a footballer.

The question should be Who's worse?

I'm usually all for an opinion, but anyone claiming they would rather have Henderson in their team than Pogba is either biased to the point of delusion or just on the wind up.

By winning, say, five MOTM awards in his last eleven games? Would that do it?

Paul Pogba only has one more premier league goal than 37 year old WBA centre back Gareth McCauley this season.

This is a player who cost £90 million.

He is pretty tall

Pogba has three times as many MOTM awards so far this season (nine) as Henderson, Lallana and Wijnaldum combined.
