irrespective Henderson rainbow laces, love everyone armbands and waffle.

goes and takes the blood money.

zero respect for that. zero.

Would have agreed and given as like for that but you suggest he's already gone, he hasn't. For the reasons you posted, he won't.
 
I would assume VvD would be captain (I'm assuming he is going to be VC anyway)
Robertson as Vice?

The only others in the running would be Salah, Trent or Alisson.

Interesting fact: Henderson is the 4th longest serving club cpt btw
Points if you can name the those above him
Bonus points if you can name the only non British or Irish club captain

Big Sami?

Not sure I can see him going. But then at same time, with position under threat, and at his age never going to get that kind of money again, 2/3 years at 700k sets him up for life.

I can see why he'd potentially move clubs, just don't see him going to Saudi. But then, I really didn't think Gerrard would either.

It would be a bigger surprise for Hendo to go though after what he's done in the past.

While Liverpool FC waits for their captain's word on whether he wants to move to Saudi Arabia, they have reportedly agreed on personal terms with rumoured target Romeo Lavia of Southampton.
There had been conflicting reports on whether Liverpool would need to move a midfield player like Thiago to open room for Lavia. Still, it seems Henderson’s possible departure will do it.

so the stats and the eye test show that Hendo has been abysmal.
The stats show Keita is the best too

All our players being linked now!

Would be a shame to lose Fab. Had a poor year last year. Difficult one. Never going to get a better offer for him, but he’s also the only type of player we have in that role so unless can replace with like for like. Was hoping with a bit more rotation he’d be back to his best tis year but if his legs are going then take the money and reinvest.

Not seen a transfer value for Hendo. I guess anywhere above 25m would be decent given his age

It would be a shame but if we’re being ruthless, then it is time to sell. £40m is ridiculous! But as you say, we really need to get quality replacements in. Lavia alone isn’t enough IMO

Henderson decision expected today also.
 
Just seen 1 bit on the fee for henderson. They wanted him on a free but lfc want 10m.

free?! Seems mental. Even £10m seems stupidly low

Well normally i'd think 40m for a player who will be 30 in Oct and appears to be in decline but just like the discussions over Henderson there worry that we could end up with a whole new MF .

Problem you have is then you’ve lost a lot of first team players in one go. Yes maybe not the best players but how long to new players take to click into the team? Effectively asking Szobo Lavia? Mac allister to form a completely new midfield 3 at a new club from day 1. While also losing experienced players in Keita ox Milner

Would be a very young inexperienced midfielder squad if we do lose both.
