Stupid comment really - Jack Wilshere had only 3 assists and 1 goal last season - Henderson had 5 and 3 (and was the 5th best at creating chances in the entire premier league - including Man Utd, Chelsea Liverpool etc) Our opinions (Sunderland fans) on Henderson differs a lot of the time - I personally rate the lad very highly and think he will become an excellent player. He played 75 games in the last 2 seasons and has only turned 21 this week which, I believe, is why he looked poor and jaded in the second half of last season. If he is over played then I think he'll struggle, but if he's given time to develop and fit into the squad and brought through slowly then I think you'll have yourselves a very good player. I do think £20m was over the top for him but it's the going rate for young english talent ATM.
Dalglish moto = lets buy overpriced players maybe if liverpool want to be as good as Man utd they might start buying like them. best of all is they want Downing too lol
the word is prospect. people said that about rushie fowler and gerrard now look. shelvey, spearing and henderson AND carroll are prospects and gonna be class by the time they're 25.
Guessing this half wit isn't from Sunderland..The only place on Earth , that makes a night with Kerry Katona look appealing!
Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuulllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll. i have heard that the total deal £19.25 million, £14 million up front, realistic add ons price will be £17.5 million, if he moves on when the £17.5 million trigger met we get a further 1.75, subject to transfer fee being over £19.25. Its in all our interests, Liverpool, Sunderland & England for him to do well. Liverpool see him as the real deal and and expect him to stick around so he will not be sold for more that £17.5.
Jones, Kelly, Wilson, Shelvey, Spearing, Henderson, Carroll. 7 young lads, all British, all very good prospects, all young, all ours. Kenny is building for the future and has been there, what, 6months?
I like Dalglish, and after losing the first game as his team beds in(hoping) I reckon they will be back in the top 3.
