Jordan Henderson compendium thread


Made the mistake of posting on a sunderland Facebook page that henderson has tainted himself and I wouldn't want him any where near us

Apparently I'm an idiot and nothing wrong with saudi. Feel like I've posted on a mags group

Some of the defence of his decision isn't half reaching

He never really supported LGBTQ+ rights as someone else wrote it all for him

His accepting Saudi money is fine as my dad did the same when he worked there

He's one of our own. So whereas we might criticise the Mags for campaigning for Saudi money, it's fine for someone born in the Sunderland boundaries

Thread makes us look a bit stupid actually

I know I've said it before but don't get why anyone would actively defend it, it's just god damn weird. Like come out and say you're not bothered that's fine everyone is entitled to that opinion but to go actively out the way to defend some complete stranger with crap morals with a whole load of excuses is just odd if you ask me.

They're as bad as any mag who defends their own club, it's exactly the same. If they actively moan about the mags then they're 10x worse as they're a complete hypocrite to boot.

Keep him away from the club as far as possible, the fact he gets boo'd at England games shows what people think of him, we don't need toxic energy like that in the squad.

Suggesting it’s ruined his legacy…it hasn’t. He has played for his hometown clubs, country, and won everything captaining Liverpool.

A few months making millions in Saudi does nothing to diminish his legacy and mega successful career. Only people being disingenuous about their dislike for Saudi would make such mealy mouthed suggestions.

I'm not sure. He was massively booed by England fans in the first game he played after leaving Liverpool, I think it did clearly resonate with people unless they were booing for no reason

His legacy included the work he done in the name of diversity. It made him likable. He pissed in the face of that.

He certainly doesn't need the money so a small remuneration contract may be to his liking.

He'd maybe be accepted by most(?) or everyone, if was to come and also apologized in some way (for his mistake of going to Saudi Arabia in the first place). Then also announce he play for us and donate his £5,000? a week salary to the Children's Hospital.

I’d think he got more booed for his gay stance and trying to put himself front and centre with his rainbow laces and all the rest of it then going to Muslim country where gays etc aren’t tolerated and coming out with crap like it wasn’t for the money.
Pr works two ways, you can’t garner favour for one thing then take a big bag off cash moving to play in a country where it’s outlawed. He was booed more for his hypocrisy and subsequently atrocious interviews than actually taking the cash

Not his playing legacy, hes just illustrated to the world yet again that some players are thick as whale spunk.
Be plenty players go out there and earn their vast fortunes and not get any grief..but then they hadn’t set out to project themselves as some crusading hero beforehand
