    ... or Jobe or Rigg or Browne?

    What would you do if you had to say 'yes or no' today?

    "Jordan Henderson is being linked with a January loan move to the Championship.

    Would you take him at your club?"

    As much as I rate Henderson as a player I still can’t get past his move to Saudi. I know it’s been said that any one of us would do the same thing and that may well be correct. But I just struggle with his very blatant hypocrisy. Sad really as I would have loved to have seen him end his career in a Sunderland shirt. As already said, that ship has sailed.

    Not for me, he’s blotted his copybook in my eyes.
    Also don’t want a 30 something stopping the development of these exciting kids.

    If he does come back it should be on the coaching side .

    Not now. Summer gone I would have seen yes. But seeing Rigg make the shirt his own, and Henderson looking an old man for Ajax, I cant see him getting in the side. Blocking th pathway for Aleksic, Watson and others isnt what we need.

    No, we’re not that kind of club anymore. Would take him when/if he decides to coach.

    No. Even putting aside his hypocrisy going to Saudi, if he's not getting game time in Holland, what makes him think he's going to be cut out for regular game time in the championship? The championship is a competitive, physically demanding league, where games come thick and fast. If he's looking like an old man in a slower, more technical, less physical league, what's he going to like here after a couple of months?
    And that's not considering him potentially blocking the development of the likes of Rigg, Jobe, Aleksic or other young players by taking up a squad place and limiting their opportunities.

    No, he’s too old and well past his sell by date.

    I’d rather give Jobe & Rigg bumper contracts and build a team round them.

    someone on here a while back pointed out that "returns" literally never work well. I'd agree

    Not for me. We have moved on.

    Doubt he would get in the side tbh.

    Last season I'd have had him back in a heartbeat to finish his career here.

    This season I'm afraid the boat had sailed and while he will always be one of own, he isn't what we need

    I never said he was .It was on the presumption that he wanted to go down the coaching route and had all his badges .. and i did say IF .

    Agree with just about everything that has been said. We have a young exciting squad going forward. In the passed I would have had him but no longer. I didn't agree with him going to Saudi . Been a cracking player for us in the past but that is where he stays for me a part of our history.
