    Henry 2nd half

    Not normally a great fan of his but credit when due , 2nd half - Have to admit that that was his best performance in an R's shirt (in my opinion)

    Was making tackles, passing ok & moving about a bit....and yes I was sober for once

    Although I reckon he should have scored in the first half though when he hit the bar with the keeper on the floor

    He does still worry me a bit when on the ball though (like Carroll today)

    Opinions????

        He came on last game and we won, he played today and we won... well done to him.

        I didn't know it was him who hit the bar.

          Limited in ability but can do a job for us, especially if paired with someone like Carroll/Jenas.

            If I was him I'd hit the bar too, can't have enough pints when you're that bad.

              Maybe he is finally getting out of Barton`s shadow? Still not one of my favourites at LR.

                Wouldn't mind betting he'll make way for a fit again Barton v Bolton on Tuesday week.

                1st half I thought our centre midfield was overrun today, I said at HT we're missing Joey. But fair play to Lenny 2nd half - he was much improved.
                Should have buried that header though.

                    People need to realise, he's not in the team for his silky skills, or his goal scoring. He's job is to break down the opposition, and lay it off to Barton / Carroll / Nico which he does.

                    He's not trying to be anything he's not. He just does what he knows he can, and barring Everton away, I think he's done well when called upon.

                      I was in Specsavers just the other day - You'll never guess who I bumped into ?

                      I presume he's not in the team to miss sitters from 2 yards when the opportunity arises ?
                      (I take your point TW7, as Olly once said, 'Painists need someone to push the piano on stage before they can shine' - or something like that - shame we got Bobby Crush !)

                        He lets his team mates do their jobs. No ego. He just does he job. He really is mostly a good player
                        Under Les Ferdinand:
                        Luke Freeman, top assists in the league: 4million
                        Alex Smithies, great goalie for this club: 3,5million
                        Charlie Austin, 19 Premier League goals: 4million
                        Jack Robinson: Contract ran out, left for free
                        And many more mistakes

                        LES FERDINAND, IT'S TIME TO GO

                          He brings nothing to the team at all. Woeful in the first half, marginally better in the second. It's like time stands still when he gets the ball. If he is playing in the Barton role then it is his job to play the ball forward. Not get the ball stop do a full 360 and then pass the ball back too elf the 2 centre halves. The first half was as poor a performance from the midfield as I have seen for many a year. People on here slate Carroll and yes he is lightweight but at least he is trying to do something with the ball and inject some pace into the game!

                            Fella's total pants. Some weeks he's less pants than others, but he's still pants.

                              Good post but to be fair he did just as well kast week when he came on by all reports. Worthy addition to the 'squad'.
