The nonchalant finish and coquettish celebration reminded me very much of Mr Cantona's skill and swagger. Not everybody's cup of tea at the club with his sometimes petulant behaviour. Still, it's that very same petulance that makes him the outstanding player that he undoubtedly is. He received an immediate yellow card after Davies had fluffed his lines with the penalty (like a naughty schoolboy in the playground who'd had the ball taken off him). However, what he conjured up in the 44th minute was the work of an extremely talented man!! [Post edited 27 Dec 2016 8:31]

And it's not the first time he has shown such brilliance. Remember his goal in the Leeds game (as if anybody could forget it?) and away at Exeter. The guy is pure class and that is why he will always be included in Keith Hill's team even when he has had, by his standards, a little dip in form. Yes he can sometimes frustrate with his petulance but moments like yesterday more than compensate for the indiscretions! One of the most skilful players to have ever appeared for Dale - would anybody argue against that? Any nominations for who would be above him in a list of skilful players? BTW - Coquettish - love that description of him and the celebration! I would have gone for nonchalant but I bow to RKershaw's talents as a wordsmith! | ![](/images/avatars/20724.gif) |

Form is temporary - Class is permanent on 09:41 - Dec 27 with 7337 views | AtThePeake | An incredible goal and an important brace for Hendro but a couple of things I disagree with in this thread. I don't think he needs the petulance in his game to be the great player that he can be. He still has the ability to score goals like the one he scored yesterday without picking up idiotic red cards for retaliation. Also, I think 'a little dip in form' is an understatement to say the least. I think Hendo has been pretty much sub-par for about 12 months now. Hopefully yesterday signals the end of that and he can start performing at his brilliant best. | ![](/images/avatars/1813.gif) |

Saw the famous Cantona goal recently on Scott Hogan's Twitter account.....can anybody copy it from youtube and put it side by side with the Hendo effort to compare the two?? [Post edited 27 Dec 2016 9:44]

Form is temporary - Class is permanent on 09:45 - Dec 27 with 7315 views | aleanddale | What a goal!! Perfect time to score as well.. Agree with the thread title and Hendo really is a class act. We roll onto Friday now - more of the same please.. These lads just ooze confidence at the moment. 6-0 would not have looked out of place yesterday ( missed pen and an open goal ) Chesterfield look like they have big problems on the pitch as well as off it. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

You'll probably be horrified to hear it, but those are my thoughts exactly It does take a certain amount of arrogance* to believe you can hit the far top corner without first taking a touch but there's nothing wrong with that. After his yellow my fear was he wouldn't stay on the pitch long enough to show us what he's capable of, which has always been the basis of any criticism I've made of him I think having Camps as captain has also helped him, since he's no longer getting involved in every little issue between players and the ref * that can only happen when you have the skill to execute it | ![](/images/avatars/1219.gif) |

Never understand the thinking of a ref who books a player for timewasting when his team is 3-0 up with 3 minutes left to play? Fully agree with it when a team is hanging on at 1-0 and a player boots the ball away but the concept of time wasting is surely not relevant in this situation? | ![](/images/avatars/20724.gif) |

I know what you mean, but surely the "boot" is on the other foot? Why does a footballer kick the ball away when 3-0 up? Deserves a booking just for being that petty! | ![](/images/avatars/1219.gif) |

wasnt sure Rathbone's was time wasting. It was given for that but he'd passed it directly to their keeper and probably saved time in doing so. Poor decision by Boyesen. | ![](/images/avatars/1006.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Rathbone kicked the ball away, he could have just given it to the Chesterfield players. To the letter of the law a yellow. Had to agree with that one | ![](/images/avatars/4893.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

One of the "idiotic red cards" he picked up for retaliation was at Wigan last season when he was the victim of an appalling challenge, prompting the club to appeal against it | ![](/images/avatars/7016.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Which was a waste of time seeing as though we based that appeal on the actions of another player rather than that of our own (although it was admitted he could have got one of two red cards!) http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11719/10223586/rochdale-appeal-against-ia | ![](/images/avatars/1212.gif) |

In my opinion Hendo is THE most skillful player ever to play for us. He has set such a high standard since we signed him, his occasional dip in form is still equal to many players peak form. | ![](/images/avatars/7016.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Many of our players have been on the receiving end of appalling challenges. Not many have reacted in a way that ultimately let the rest of the team down in a game they had a real chance of taking something from. [Post edited 28 Dec 2016 15:13]

Every player who gets sent off either justifiably or not lets the team down, but there dozens who have got sent off in games we could have got something from, think Joe Cooke boxing day 1985 Edgeley Park to name just one. | ![](/images/avatars/7016.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
