Also physicality and versatility
Don't get me wrong I think Wharton is great but he effectively goes mostly as an Anderson back up.
Henderson and Mainoo are more physical and more versatile in the roles that they can play in the team. Can also play Bellingham or Rogers in midfield if needed
Without being quite good enough to be in the first team (yet) he is a bit too much of a luxury. He was at the last tournament and didn't get on the pitch.
