Jordan Henderson (signed for Brentford)

[Jorrd93]

He hadn’t been named in the last England squad though, but of a difference

Bit of a difference between league 1 and premier league as well. I’m getting pelters so gonna shut up and hope it all works out

Let’s not get sentimental now. Neil won’t be in the first 11 next season never mind be captain. While I have time for Neil, he’s not a natural captain and if he sticks around he will massively have to up his game to force his way into the team.

Whats been wrong with his captaincy?

 

[safcmackem]

If he's open to it 100% we should be all over it. He's still performing at the highest level and would add so much not just on the pitch but also of it.

Selling Jordan Henderson for £20m and signing him back for free has got to be better than selling George McCartney for £600k and buying him back for £6m.

Get wee philie down to the AOL

I would hope so. He is already set for life, a couple of years or so on reduced wages won't hurt him. He'll still be on decent money by normal standards even with a big pay cut.

A chance to bow out at his boyhood club and a return to the Premier League in one swoop. I reckon he will see it as a great opportunity.

If he doesnt we'll know about Jordans priorities

Hendo, Diarra and Le Fee is some midfield for a promoted side like

Henderson, Diarra, Le Fee.
Neil, Sadiki, Rigg.

Ekwah, Browne etc sold or loaned out. 2 players again for every position, really positive all this imo.

Just need the rest of the team

Poor start to the season, captaincy clearly weighting heavy, not a great performance in the play off final, not the greatest motivational speaker. If your a 20 million pound player coming into Sunderland, would Neil be a player you look up too and want to go to war with? I doubt it. Henderson on the other hand!

I thought everyone hated him now because he played in Saudi.

Nobody ever hated him, man.

People thought it was a mistake. I still do, for the record. But like who hasn't made mistakes.

You can criticise people without hating them. I think he took blood money by going to an islamic dictatorship which execute hundreds of people a year but I also think he's a terrific footballer who has done a lot for charity and handled himself well while here and at Liverpool.

He'd be a huge asset for the club and I'd love to have him here. Doesn't mean I still don't think the Saudis are *****. But there's a difference between a player going there and then coming here, and our club being owned by the bastards.

A soft spot for a player that retired before he was born?

He was ahead of his time.

 

[bomba2]

We need cover at LB

You reckon we’re bringing someone in from Atletico Madrid, paying him £65k per week as cover?

 

[Raven5]

Exactly what we need as a newly promoted side full of kids: a legendary Captain full of experience at the highest level, cult Sunderland hero, England current player, Ajax captain wanted by clubs like Porto etc. Would be a superb signing IMO!

 

[FReaK]

Blatantly going to happen this. Been on the cards for a while. Will be a tremendous signing

No brainer. Experience for the young kids and better than Ekwah and Browne.

To be fair aswell it was only the Gerrard connection what took him there, and he couldn’t even see out a year.

Talbi sadiki le fee diarra adingra

Roberts Rigg hendo Neil mundle

2 players for every position full of depth I think that’s so much stronger than we could have ever expected

 

[xmfd]

Henderson on a free as an experienced head amongst our new midfielders is a no brainer for me. I wasn’t sure about this before but now we’ve signed Diarra and Noah, I think Hendo completes our midfield.

Bring him home.
