Jordan Henderson (signed for Brentford)


There can’t be many alternatives available for free who would be able to have the same impact and surely we can’t be spending 20m on every player we buy! I think we will need to add 3/4 players on frees / loans to bulk up the squad and only Reinildo so far.

Obviously if they thought it was worth it they would, I guess they don’t. I think the club has earned our trust.

This is the level of “journalism” that whallop Keith is at

My 4 year old could have wrote that article

It’s common sense not journalism

Don’t interact with the Saudi propaganda machine downie
 
Neil, Rigg, Sadiki, Diarra and Le Fee

Strange stance from the club (if true) as an experienced Sunderland supporting Henderson looks a great shout at complimenting the above

One thing you can’t level at the club is that they don’t do things their own way. Almost stubborn at times :lol:

Its stubborn and its just looking at data on a spreadsheet. Speakers needs to get off excel and understand the human aspect to this potential signing. Look at henderson there at ajax man would be great to have him back
 
Thankfully our owners have more imagination that signing someone who’s had a good career (operative word is had) and used to play for us. He doesn’t fit the model or our new style. Not happening.
 
If he came here he would walk into the team and stay there. I like our signings but they are not at JH level yet.
Not that I don't think he wouldn't be good enough, more that we've spent something like €70m on central midfielders so far and the club are big on having a pathway for young players.

It's a squad game and you need more than a starting XI (particularly when a fair few might be missing for AFCON) so that might be enough to convince him he'll play, who knows, but one thing for sure is that he wouldn't get any guarantees.
