you've trolled three different threads today saying the same thing about hendo, even in ones not explicitly mentioning him. bit weird.
yeah his tackling needs work, but given he's a winger, i don't see it as an issue. i don't think many people slate messi, or ronaldo, or n'zogbia, or mattie etherington for that matter, because their tackling ability doesn't match up to john terry's. you talk about bardsley, saying he benefited from being on the bench. does that logic not extend to henderson then?? surely you've just argued that a good rest for henderson might do him the world of good and see him progress..? and sorry, but bardsley has two goals this season, henderson has one. bardsley got no goals last season, henderson got one, so my math's isn't the best, but i make that two goals each, don't you?? please give me an example of bardsley supplying an assist?? henderson played the final pass for gyan against chelsea, as well as many others that i can look for if you want to continue making stuff up. for the record, i bloody love bardsley, but you seem to think he's a barometer for henderson's performance levels, which makes no sense.
i wasn't at the game, i live in london, but good to know henderson isn't on corners - he's not very good at them. though you may be desperate for it to happen (why, i don't know, henderson steal your girlfriend??) i wouldn't take that as bruce beginning to lose faith.
we got less money than we should have for jones, but henderson is a better calibre of player, younger, and born-and-bred sunderland. again, why do you want the best sunderland born player in a decade at least, an england international no less, to be sold?? sorry, glad you love the others, just they are the typical targets of boo boys such as yourself.
one last thing, if henderson is so bad, why does bruce rate him so highly?? is bruce wrong?? why does he talk about ferguson being on the phone to him?? questioning ferguson's eye for a player too??
