Who would you get to replace Jordan Henderson?

Crazy isnt it.

We have a local lad and potential England star on the books, why the fuck would anyone want to sell him even for 20mil if he wasn't bothered about going anywhere.

We aren't desperate for money and as i understand it, Henderson is loving his football at Sunderland.

He hasn't even made his International debut quite yet ffs. Let him get on with his football. All this speculation is ridiculous.

To be fair though you could take that exact post and drop it into any Everton fan site 6-7 years ago when Rooney was coming through, local lad, potential star, Everton were not desperate at the time were they?

Rooney parading a t-shirt that say once ablue always a blue and weeks later he ends up at United. At the end of the day if one of the really big teams want him, they will have him unfortunately.

Hope I am wrong
 
I think as a direct replacement we'd get Ireland pretty cheap as doesn't look like he's fitting in at Villa......still a good player and youngish.
Nzog as well but even if we keep Hendo still Nzog.

Wouldn't touch Irelend with a ten foot pole. Would have before the squad began to blossom this year, but think his attitude would hurt the club more than his talent would help.

Schweinsteiger or Tomas Mueller. :-D Or maybe we can persuade Lahm to come and be our left back? (Just dreaming :))
 
Steven Defour or Joao Moutinho both very highly rated and skillful players been linked to moves to the premiership in the last few years may not want to come here but who thought cana would leave Marseille to join us

and leave again so sharpish

Or we end up with an ordinary player who is worth nowt. IF £20million is a true figure we would be mad in one sense not to take the gamble. He could well go to Chelsea and end up like Sidwell, Parker and SWP. At the minute he has got loads of potential but £20m could buy us 2-3 players who while maybe not world beaters could significantly improve our squad.
 
I know Jordans the man of the moment but on the brief cameo of his displays last season I believe Meyler is an even better prospect.

This ^^^^

Meyler has been forgotten amongst the hype. If he regains last season's form after his injury and sustains it we have another absolue gem on our hands.
 
Long-term back problem, only just getting back to any semblance of fitness.

this ^, but it could be helpful with getting a low price with him, as tottenham now have a handful of attacking midfielders, he was brilliant when he was on loan at portsmouth, he can take all set pieces and is also still young (i think)
 
i agree with a few other posters. meyler will do a decent job if he returns and performs as he did, towards the end of last season.

i would also like, if it could be done, for safc to sell to man city and somehow get adam johnson as part of the deal
 
All Meyler needed to do was get consistent over the whole 90 minutes. He could look amazingly comfortable in one half then disappear in the other, however he wasn't alone in that respect last season.
I'm really looking forward to his return as I genuinely believe he could be better than Henderson.
 
Henderson -> Man City for Johnson + £10M.

Then buy N'Zogbia.

Simples.

Still got Cattermole, Meyler etc. In central midfield.
would settle for that. money and a player, though i am worried we maybe offered wright phillips or even wayne bridge
 
Many people mention Meyler, but he plays a different game and is there more to stop play than keep it going like Henderson, can't see for the life of me how he's a better prospect either

Why can't we just keep Henderson ffs.
