Most of the NE journos are reporting it; there's a story about it in the Journal tomorrow. The guy who's written it (@MsiDouglas) has said it isn't an exclusive as he expects it to be in a few papers.

This has been rumoured for the last week to be fair and the mackems are adamant he's away.

Oh I know. Just cannot understand why they'd be willing to pay anywhere near that amount for someone as average as Henderson.

If this comes off, £53m on Carroll and Henderson. Dear me.

Overpriced English midfielder shocker. It's unbelievable what clubs will pay for English players these days.

To be fair Joe 'Messi' Cole was signed on a free.

Well nobody can accuse the New England Yankees of withholding cash. The waiter must be looking on in envy.

True. Probably on £90,000 a week plus though.

Red card on his debut - priceless.

Re: Football Chat Thread : Mon Jun 06, 2011 10:49 pm  

A princely £100,000 I think. Messi's on £225,000 a week so like for like Joe's cheap as chips.

Henderson is a strange one as I don't really see the promise with him, he shows small glimpses but £18m!!
