I don't think Henderson was too bad. He works best when he has an opponent to press and win back the ball. Not when the other team does not feel like having the ball.

Pretty much this. He's not dangerous when teams sit back and defend. He's dangerous when he can nick the ball off a midfielder and send it through right away.

He's done well passing and keeping the ball moving and in possession, but to be honest it's not really necessary here.
 
That's what's been frustrating about the game. West Ham isn't parking the bus, there's plenty of space just outside the penalty area and Liverpool have been able to move the ball around in the dangerous area, but have reaped no rewards.
