They've sold Johnstone to WBA today, which means they probably rate Henderson more highly (which is good news)
 
They've signed Lee Grant as cover. What the home based players fuck?

Third choice behind two good keepers. He’s taking a last pay day to warm the bench.

Getting towards the end of his career, on big money, surprised the pigs didn’t sign him. I know they don’t need to strengthen in that position but that doesn’t usually bother them. Maybe his ego is too small and he’s not injury prone enough.
 
Unless Kev & the Bog Roll Prince have found a spare £10 mill behind the back of the sofa, I think we can file this under "things that won't happen"

Get promoted and £10m is a snip for the lad. £10m should also be chicken feed for the club. Should we get promoted, I’d like to see the club have its shackles loosened a tad regards spending. The club needs to drag itself into the 21st century regards transfer fees. I know Wilder can wheel and deal with the best of them but you’d think the PL fortunes would be put to good use.
 
When you say it’s a snip, Is that a £10M on top of the losses we’re already making?

The money’s not floating around and neither are the owners siphoning any away from the club, so I’m not sure where you think it’s just a snip.

If you’re saying after promotion, then I’d agree with you. There will be much more money available, although the players would want their wages doubling or trebling I’m sure.
 
No chance we will sign him on a permanent, he's valuable to Man Utd....young English talent are a premium in the market....he will easily be a £10m player for them by the end of this season. We're not in that market.
 
People are livin in cloud cuckoo land If they think deanos worth ten million try 30 probably more.
He’s only 21 so that’s like 15 in goalkeeping years and is no1 for the England u21’s so is the best young English keeper.
 
And this illustrates the issues we will face if we don't go up. Despite this window looking like a great one so far come the summer we will have Hendo, Madine, Dowell and Hogan going back whilst at the same time our aging strike force will be thst bit older.
I was feeling pretty positive until I read this

But... the ownership issue will have been resolved, hopefully with further good news on that front.

No way is he worth £30m yet, he’s similar to Angus Gunn (Championship loan, England U21) and he went for £13.5m. I’d say about £15m at the minute but I can see Man U trying to loan him to the Premier League next season.

After a season in the Prem, Hendo could be seen as a future Man U keeper or get up to a £30m player.
 
I can’t imagine they would accept any less than Sam Johnson went for last year. Which unfortunately rules us out.

That depends on what Henderson has said to Man United. If he asked to leave that fee becomes lower.
 
As with all deals, the agreement could be staggered, hence, we pay an initial £12-15million, after being selected for 35-40 games we then pay an additional £5-10million, and should he win an international cap a further amount. Constructing a deal shouldn't prove difficult, and the figures I've selected are arbitrary so use whatever figures you feel reflect Henderson's worth.

.....will sign for us tomorrow. Some people need to give their heads a wobble.
 
It’s essentially a profit making loan. There’s no way we lose money, even if we pay 8 figures.

This is a no lose situation and there aren’t many of those in football.
 
I can’t see why either Henderson or the club would be interested in making a decision on this until we know which division we’ll be in.

For us, it would only mean we can put a decent offer in if we go up. For him, he’s surely only interested in signing permanently if we’re in the Prem.

If we go up, I’m convinced he’ll be loaned to us again. If not, he’ll be consigned to the legends of SUFC and be at a lower PL club next year.
 
I will add this.

This lad don’t seem to arsed about material things. He knows he’s fortunate to be in the game, loves playing and I would stick my neck out and say he seems to have fallen in love with the club from the management to the other players to the fans.
I wouldn’t be at all surprised if he has asked to move here permanent. And although I have no doubt he will become one of the best English keepers, at the moment he is still a young lad with limited Champ experience and a LOT of learning and improvement to go.

Therefore I don’t think we would struggle to put together a deal based on fees, add ins, buy backs and sell ons. Depends if we really are Confident of going up either this year or next.....gradual improvement remember!

I’m hoping...not expecting. I wouldn’t rule it out just yet that’s for sure.
