Henderson is being completely and totally wasted when Gerrard is on the pitch.
I've thought this since the World Cup, but I'd hate to see a player like Henderson assigned to an attacking role. One of his best attributes is his engine, and having him on both sides of the pitch is more beneficial for 'Pool in my view. He can be a shuttler type player and still have a massive contribution on the field. I don't think he's going to reach Gerrard's when Stevie was played behind the striker but he's more useful for 'Pool and for England as being a link player tying defense to offense. He excels in the transition game in particular.

Oh I agree. He's perfect for the B2B. But I was speaking in regard to when he's given enough freedom to push up. With Gerrard on the pitch he can rarely attack, if ever. And that means he's rarely allowed to show his true B2B potential. I would never want him sitting in the hole, but his decision making about when to join in the attack is very good and I want him given the freedom to decide when to do that and when to stay back.
