Thread proving the staggering levels between Twitter’s latest forced debates between Henderson and Fred.
Every professional and expert wouldn’t even consider Fred on that level, but this thread completely ends any debate.
Here is why “Henderson > Fred”

So what is Fred better at? He has amassed a grand 0 (ZERO) G/A (yes, really hahaha) in the PL this season.
Surely he must be outrageous defensively then?
For perspective, Henderson is only dribbled past 1.2 times pg, compared to Fred (3)
I'll let this image do the speaking.

They share the same number of tackles completed pg/ despite Henderson having less to make in total. Fred's lack of intelligence also shows him committing 1.6 fouls pg.
Fred has also amassed 7 bookings, Henderson being far more composed and intelligent sits on 1.

Despite playing similar roles, Henderson has contributed to 8 goals (Fred, 0). This is made more impressive considering Henderson largely played as a dm in Fabinho's absence from December onwards. Not only this, but he often selflessly stays back to cover for Trent's 300 assists
Fred’s hilarious shooting abilities are even more laughable when you look into the numbers. Despite scoring 0 goals all season, he averages 1.5 Shots per game. Henderson averages just 0.6, yet still scores more frequently
Fred averages 1.6. unsuccessful touches per game, while Henderson,averages less than 1 a game at 0.9.
Despite attempting more crosses (0.6) and more long balls (4.1 )WHILE playing almost 200 more minutes, Fred still has 0 zero assists, as oppose to Henderson’s impressive 5.

Fun fact while we’re here, Alisson, THE GOALKEEPER, has more PL assists this season than Fred. It was against Fred’s Manchester United, of course.
Although statistics don’t tell the full story, and in some cases are meaningless, Henderson still leads the way. So let’s look outside of stats, and compare the two. This is where context is applied and the levels are seen to be truly staggering.
For the record, I personally believe KDB, Mane and even Virgil are ahead of Henderson in the race for the POTY, but regardless. It is no coincidence every professional and expert rates Henderson so incredibly highly. There’s valid justification for Henderson being the POTY though
Jordan Henderson is the captain for the World Champions. The best manager in the World selects as one of the first players to start every week. His presence is a huge factor in Liverpool having the highest points gap in league history.
Recency biased also massively clouds people’s judgment, had the season continued, United’s run of “form” which is where this hype started would have ended.
United scored 29 goals since Jan 26th. 18 of which came against Derby, Tranmere, LASK and Brugge.

On the other side, Liverpool finally lost a game, Jordan Henderson’s absence clearly having an impact in the one league defeat out of 29. That is no coincidence.
Football coming to a halt couldn’t have come at a more convenient time for the odd side of Twitter.

Perspective and the overall picture show’s Fred, in a team having their worst season in 30 years, sitting above Sheffield United only because of a game in hand.
Even speaking to United fans, they constantly moan for another midfielder to compliment Bruno and Pogba. At the expense of? Fred…
How can a player, who is soon to be a player used solely for rotation, be anywhere near the level of the captain, that is integral for a team on track for the highest points tally in history.
In almost every aspect, Henderson dominates. It’s such a disrepectful debate, forced out of a combined hatred for the most successful club in England. There’s no evidence to prove otherwise, just blanket statements for likes
