Jordan Henderson (signed for Brentford)

[Ricci's Special Kebabs]

Shock jock playing for clicks quell surprise.

Pickford 3/10 and he literally had almost nothing to do

Burn was easily the worst player. He gave the ball away under zero pressure twice.

Lets be fair then, 6/10 in one report and 2/10 in the other.

4/10 against Andorra, case closed Keith.

 

[Flavonoids]

Any of those Andorra lads worth looking at?
If they bossed Hendo off the park.....

No ...

Said there was little chance of him coming here. Not a good relationship between his party and the club.

If KS couldn't be arsed to contact him when we were in the EFL, there was little chance he was going to when we are in the PL, no matter how much of a no brainer people think the move would be.

He didn't want to come back to Sunderland full stop. Or North East generally. Was told from very reliable source. So am I surprised gone to London? No.

 

[mackemdr]

I would've wanted him here.

But I think he isn't because we couldn't guarentee game time (which tbf shows you the measure of the lad wanting it for the 2026 WC).

If he would've come without that he would be here imo.

Fair play to the club for sticking to their (young) guns that they made commitments to before Hendo became available.

No hard feeling from me, just a shame its to Brentford who I would hope would fall apart this season to allow us to overtake them

 

[Rizla]

We don't offer 2 year, big contracts to 35 year-olds. Plus there was absolutely no indication either he or the club were interested.

 

[Ricci's Special Kebabs]

A very important quote from the new DoF

“All four of us have to be aligned to approve a signing,” explains Ghisolfi, whose appointment was confirmed last week.

If he was even discussed, and I doubt he actually was, he didn't meet our targets. I'm more than happy with this approach.

 

[Parkmaverick]

The wages part.

Think the 2 year contract on those wages as well.

 

[Geppetto]

Hopefully we target him as a weakness when we play them.

 

[Mowgli]

Ghisolfi - "We're not afraid, we are Sunderland. We work with conviction. We don't look back, we look ahead"

This season maybe, because of previous goings on, last summer he was very keen though. My source is very close to the coalface.

I advocated reasonable hard that Brentford wouldn’t capitulate after the loss of Frank and a couple of their better players. That there way of operating would see then still be very competitive in the PL.

But fck knows the question that was asked that spat out Henderson as the answer!

His biggest plus for us was his PL experience and leadership and although Brentford have lost their captain they are seasoned campaigners in the top flight. So what problem does he solve for them? I don’t know. Maybe his card tricks, as sarcastically suggested by Keane, are top draw.

Ex pitman?

 

[Frijj]

Absolutely gutted he isn’t coming here

Same as mine! Interesting......

Stamp on his rainbow laces

 

[The Mole]

Personally I’d have loved him to have signed. He’d have brought experience in abundance both on and off the field the knars

Itching powder in his pre-match thobe.
