Hendo give me the jitters

[Les Biehn]

He kept a clean sheet. We would have love to have done that against Denmark (or Germany)

So clean sheets are all down to the keeper then?

They certainly help.

Not going to argue, I'll just let the stats speak for themselves.

Traditionally, for an Ireland team, they are. Given single handedly saves us on average three times a match due to the defence falling apart quicker than a Trabant in the rain.

Yes, why let an intelligent consideration of all factors get in the way of stats. Going by stats Carson was the worst keeper in the prem last season.

Then why not play with 6 midfielders and 4 strikers?

Quality!

ssh, Steve Staunton might hear you, and logic doesn't work well on Louth men.

Hendo was, is and will always be SHIT.
How much more evidence do you people NEED ?

Jesus.

Jesus.

Still better than Kuipers though.

 

[cardboard]

"It was a lucky escape for the Irish and they had another moment of concern a minute later when Henderson did well to block a close-range Jon Dahl Tomasson shot after good work by Bendtner. "

It doesn't sounds all bad does it.

and yes, hes miles better than Kuipers

 

[Les Biehn]

It's not so much Hendo being shit, it's more Hendo thinking he's shit hot and being a bit of a flappy bumble f*** on numerous occasions that entertains me.

 

[NS Herald]

Dream on

 

[B.W.]

Hendo MAY improve, but he IS error prone... yet more eveidence... Yorkie et al will realise that one day, I suppose...

 

[cardboard]

Dream on

Are you on drugs

 

[B.W.]

Still better than Kuipers though.

their comparative stats at the Albion say thats bollox, I'm afraid...

 

[NS Herald]

Are you on drugs

No but I wish I was

IMO (and it is a game of opinions) MC oozes the stripes through his blood and on many many occasions he has contributed SO much to our team whereas the Irish Clown regularly was error prone and just didn't have the same hunger to do well for this club, particularly when the going got tough.

I know the debate has raged for ages and dion't want to spark it off again but I call it as I see it and having seen both in the flesh so to speak on a regular basis, there is no contest

 

[Les Biehn]

Is that Michel Cuipers?

 

[Dave the OAP]

Are we allowed to find that a bit funny or will the anti anti Hendo lot kick off. He didn't deserve the treatment he got here but lets be honest, he's a little bit shit isn't he? A wee bit error prone shall we say

Yup really really shit.

Oh hang on, he is playing in the Championship and is a current International.....pah, What do these really really good managers think?

i would certainly judge a player from the comments on an internet message board.

( not having a go at you les Old boy), but we really do need to move on in our lives.

 

[Les Biehn]

Yup really really shit.

I did say only a little bit shit David.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

He is a promising young keeper. When you think that most keepers cement their place in a team at a much later age, he is doing well for himself. Prone to the odd lapse and not always assured with his commitment to rushing out and handling, but a good keeper in the making.

If you combined both Kuipers and Henderson, then we would have had a very good keeper, indeed.
