i read so much bs about pogba by haters and deluded fans. pogba whatever is attitude is still one of the top 5 cm in the epl. Its like hearing poor people complaining about ferraris mpg and saying the would rather a prius
It’s fun reading it, Wahl.
I don't support Man Utd, it's just unreal this debate and the comments is attracted.
Pogba is a borderline World class player. Henderson is well below World class level. This isn't a debate, or it shouldn't be rather.
And when I say fun I mean it makes your eyes bleed reading scouse opinion.

Pogba has more goals and assists in one season than Henderson has in his whole career, but it’s okay, Henderson is better because he runs around barking at the opposition and squaring up to people
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's an absolute furrrking piiiiss take. Someone's comparing Pogba vs Hendo to Messi vs Ronaldo. No, Pogba vs Hendo is comparable to Messi vs Stewart Downing.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well I'll let you guys crack on with Pogba and we'll crack on with our multi-trohpy winning captain.
Anybody think Pogba will decide to play this season?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Pogba also has more trophies than Henderson.
So Pogba has better attacking stats.
Better running stats.
Better defensive stats.
More trophies and individual awards/recognistion.
Yet Henderson is still better... hmmm
More than happy to stick with him, his partnership with Bruno will more than likely be amazing.

My god you are dumb. The point was referencing the effort made, how one person has made the absolute best of himself and the other has not quite as much.
Ronaldo is the very best version of himself
Messi not quite as much the best version of himself
Hendo is the very best version of himself
Pogba not quite as much the best version of himself
Get it now??
They’re completely different players which makes comparison hard anyway but Henderson has certainly fulfilled his role better than Pogba has fulfilled his.
----------------------------------------
It's not a hard comparison
Does Pogba have a higher ceiling than Hendo? Yeah probably but his lack of consistency pulls Pogba down.
--------------
Not below Henderson. If Pogba has been pulled down from the ceiling, he's still at like 7ft high currently in the imaginary room. Hendo is around the 4ft level.
It’s a bit like Ronaldo Vs Messi. A lot of people choose Messi due to the natural talent factor but I personally think it’s more admirable that Ronaldo got to Messi’s performance levels through sheer dedication & hard work to his profession. If Messi applied himself As Ronaldo has over the last 13 years say, then Messi would be well clear imo.
---------------------------------------------
It's not like Messi vs Ronaldo because some people choose Ronaldo whereas anyone who isn't INSANE would choose Pogba. Furthermore, Pogba is well clear of Henderson unlike Messi of Ronaldo.
Much like Pogba, if he applied himself as well as Hendo has, made the best of himself, then Pogba would be well clear and this wouldn’t even be a debate.
-------------------
He is well clear and this wouldnt' be a debate if people like you weren't insane.

I’m not insane, my mother had me tested
Ok you find where I have said that Hendo is better than Pogba. Here’s a hint, I haven’t.
All I have said is that Hendo has fulfilled his role better than Pogba has his.
Lol 130+ comments. This shouldn’t even be a discussion.
I haven’t read the comments but I can’t imagine any good reasons for thinking Hendo is better.
Pogba won the World Cup. Has Hendo actually scored a goal for England yet? Excluding own goals - I know he has one of those.
Ok next comparisons:
Makele vs Lampard
Essien Vs Lampard
Scholes Vs Keane
Pogba Vs Keane
Keane Vs Gerrard
It’s ridiculous, midfielders have such different roles within the same team and different roles from team to team.
Fairer comparisons would be something like
Hendo vs Carrick
Hendo vs Essien

The question in the first place is flawed. This is the problem.
Messi vs Hendo, whos the better player?
I guess we cant say since they play different positions
How do they run the Ballon D'Or every year? Since everyone plays different positions?
This Pogba vs Hendo thing reminds me of when deluded Liverpool fans used to say Coutinho was better than Ozil.
Ozil won the World Cup; the same tournament that Coutinho didn’t make the Brazil squad.

Pogba is more talented player no doubt. The way Liverpool play, Henderson suits them. Klopp would have to play a different system if he had Pogba instead of Henderson.
So Henderson is perfect for the system Liverpool play currently and Pogba would not be. Take out Pogba and put in Henderson into the side at United and the United midfield regresses.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Disagree. United's midfield would be better with Henderson in it, than Pogba. You can't get away with strolling around in England and just turning it on if the ball happens to come to you.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nah. We have Fred and McT. What we have missed is creativity and Pogba offers more of that thab Hendo.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah but Henderson is better than both Fred and McTominay and Fernandes offers the creativity.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't really think he is any better. You just have a well organised team. Slot either McT or Fred into your team instead of Hendo and I don't think anyhring changes. Obviously they'd need some time to learn the system.

You have to define better in more detail then. If you mean better as in has more talent & ability then sure Pogba is better than Henderson.
I define it as fulfilling their role and don’t get me wrong there isn’t a huge gap here, but I think Hendo has provided what he is expected to whilst Pogba has only done that in spurts. The have that he has superior ability to Hendo further strengthens this argument ie. he has the potential but doesn’t fulfil it often enough.
In terms of fulfilling their roles to use percentages (based on my opinion) to demonstrate I would say this:
Pogba - 75%
Hendo - 80%
Messi & Ronaldo - 99% (don’t believe in 100%)
Players like Keane/Scholes/Lampard/Gerrard - 90%
As mentioned before this stupid question of better is nonsense and to follow your ridiculous reductio ad absurdum- Peter Schmeichel vs Messi who is better? Pointless debate based on a simpleton’s query of ‘better’

You can't call Pogba a world class player when he doesn't deliver it on a consistent basis. Adama Traore at Wolves is probably "world class" on his day and is unstoppable really, but that doesn't make him world class because he doesn't do it every week.
Messi is a greater player than Peter Schmeichal. See? It's not hard.
I'm not asking for some deep thinking complex analysis. Just in your opinion who is the better player.

At least they’re more similar players more fitting for comparison.
Pogba is borderline world class. Would be world class if he was more consistent. Adama Traore isn't that good even on a one off basis, so I don't agree with that.
The point is that regardless of people's opinions on work ethics, you're comparing two different levels of player when you're comparing Pogba to Hendo. It's a bit like comparing Antonio Valencia at his best to Eden Hazard. Valencia was good and worked hard, but he was never on peak Hazard's level really.

Now that I have answered your question in the manner that you requested, would you do me the same honour?

It doesn't matter. Hendo's role is to be a dog for Liverpool basically, running around and doing grunt work so the actually talented players in his team don't have to. Pogba is the actually talented player in his team.

Yeah but at least (for a large part of Valencia’s career at least) played in a similar role, even then Hazard was clearly a more advanced player who was always likely to score more.
This is why the vast majority of balon d’ors go to offensive players (Messi/Ronaldo period excluded because they’re both just ridiculous). People enjoy goals more and assists etc and it’s a lot easier to quantify. How many keepers and defenders have won the balon d’or? Not many at all. You have to wonder why...
