Its good for the league as a whole guys....Liverpool get a talented young midfielder and Sunderland get 20mil which they will use to increase their squad quality and in the grand scheme of things the league gets better quality wise.....its the cirlce of life.

So can the opposition stop crying like it was their personal money

I think the point is, most people dont see Henderson as a really talented midfielder, and the £20 million price tag just adds to the bizarreness of the transfer

A player is worth what a Club is prepared to pay for him

It seems both Clubs are happy with the deal, though £20M does seem a lot to me.
Then again if he comes good it may turn out to be a bargain.

Your right it doesn't matter what most people think...but this is a football forum website fella

If you want to speak to a person who doesn't care or take notice of anyone's opinion, speak to Wenger

Innocent until proven guilty m'Lud.

The table at the end of the season will decide whether I'm a liar or not. Call it a personal garanteee.

No your spot on, have a bisciut.

I guess we'll be talking again in the Summer then?

Look forward to it

This transfer is great news. I have used the value of Henderson (£20m), and using a fairly exact scientific formula, have calculated that Luka Modric is currently worth 50 billion pounds.

So it looks like we'll be keeping little Luka a while longer, and if we do sell him....we'll be fairly well compensated.

Lets hope Sunderland now come in with a £25mil bid for Jenas... or failing that a £25 bid will do.

Well the £££ paid by Liverpool for a player who could be described as a reasonable PL player now (potential to improve into a top PL player) is for me, surprising. The player (like most things in life) has a value of whatever someone is prepared to pay. Also goes to show how much rubbish is written in the gossip pages - Luka for £20 million? You're having a laugh. He is light years ahead of the lad Henderson.

modricleftshinpad - in all seriousness, is Henderson all that much better than Jenas?! Admittedly I don't see Henderson week in week out, but from what I've seen - he seems decent enough, but not exactly a world beater. Which is more or less how I'd describe Jenas!

Is it purely down to 'hype' surrounding him? Or maybe his age?

I genuinely believe that if Henderson's *real* worth is £20m, then surely Jenas is at least £15m?!?!

And saying that Jenas is worth at least £15m with a straight face is not all that easy.....

Zut Alors! Someone must have taken issue with the mega-genius that is "This is my user name". I hope he knows that I didn't complain about his ridiculous pedantry.

Out of interest, how many 20 year olds in the Premier League can be described as World Class? It's a lot of money, and a gamble admittedly, but we're paying for the potential as much as the player now. If we keep him for 4 years and sell him I still expect him to at least retain his value.

From what I've seen of him, he looks a decent player. But £20mm is way OTT. Have to agree with RRP on that one.
If that fee is correct, what does that make Modric, or Bale worth??

HE WILL BE QUIETLY USHERED OUT THE DOOR IN 3 YEARS TIME TO BOLTON FOR ABOUT 3 MILLION,

" I don't think any 'Spurs fan is worried about Liverpool finishing above us next season. This would be highlighted by the fact that we comprehensively outplayed you at Anfield a month or so ago. "

Do you not think this was deliberate because Liverpool didn't want to be distracted by the Europa League next season

I know what was highlighted by the results Liverpool had in their last two league games, last season

Obviously 'Spurs fans haven't seen much of young Hendo otherwise the original poster wouldn't have made such silly comments about him . . . . unless he just doesn't understand football

posted on 8/6/11

In my opinion, henderson has shown signs that he has got the potential to be a good midfield player. Is he worth 20 million: I would say certainly not, but you could also say the same about a number of other silly prices that have been paid recently.

posted on 8/6/11

If Hendo does go ( I know he will ) most Sunderland fans will be sad . . . . I know I will but I'm absolutely sure that we'll all wish him well

He's bee great for us, and I hope he'll be great for Liverpool F.C.

"Do you not think this was deliberate because Liverpool didn't want to be distracted by the Europa League next season"

Nope - they wanted it so badly they wept when they didn't get it.

Who is this Hendo character - is he the latest transfer target for Liverfool?



posted on 8/6/11

No, he's about to sign for Liverpool

posted on 8/6/11

Sorry - you've llost me as the media, and Liverpool and Sunderland's sites are reporting that someone called Henderson is being transferred - are they wrong or is this Hendo character someone else?
