It's a shame he never made the move to a big team, would've been interesting to see how he got on.Quote:

Like Veron but way way worse.
Good job The Reid’s no longer around. :oQuote:

What fucking good is it having a legend of the game if you can't take advantage of it like this. Fucking gwan Stevie :hail:
Gerrard’s club taking Fabinho and Henderson off Liverpool’s books but we won’t hear anything about that as doesn’t suit the narrative.
Disgusting.
Brav, hold it together.
Imagine a cheeky Caicedo deal. My knob wouldn't get a moment's respite.
Please take Coutinho too Stevie.
I bet Calvert-Lewin never plays in the Saudi league. :henn0rz:Quote:

What Everton are doing bunging us £15m for him I'll never know, but this would be great.
Also, I don't know if it was in this thread that Baz was worrying about the prospect, but 'Darwin' has taken the vacant 9 shirt at Liverpool. Should probably have had it as an incentive to whoever makes that position theirs this season, but this probably gets a few more shorts sold [and then sold again when he gets shifted on].
They’re obviously going to accept £40m for Fabinho. You paid that for him 4 years agoQuote:

Al Hilal in for Mitrovic apparently. Offered £25.5m and we said no straight away. Think it'd have to be double that to make us think about selling.
I can't see Mitrovic going. He'd have gone to a bigger club ages ago if it was about money. He has a cosy life at Fulham.
He apparently wants to go.Quote:

Being open to the move is not the same as wanting to go. A lot of people would be open to a move when they have £500k a week waved in their face.
I can't see how we replace him so fingers crossed we just hold out and they don't offer silly money.
The Liverpool dressing room won't recover from losing both Milner & Henderson in the same summer.
Nah, I kind of agree but VVD, Salah and Ali will keep the favela cunts on a leash.
If they're throwing all of this money about they can do better with these offers. If be wanting a combined 80-100m for Henderson and Fabinho.
Manc is right. You don't want to be losing the two big dressing room leaders and especially not the club captain during a season of upheaval, without at least being compensated for it.
80-100 million. You what

I'd have thought we would be a cautionary tale for hoying all the leadership out of the dressing room. Pro footballers (especially those without great English) are basically child-robots.
Yeah I’d rather Thiago was the one on the way out than Henderson just from the leadership viewpoint.
You would assume Klopp thinks Fabinho is broken if he’s willing to let him leave.
Would have to be another two coming in to replace those two though surely?
Trent full into the holding 'number six' roll. :happycry:
And sign a few more wide forwards.
The Everton fan at work was asking me about him, and I was racking my brains beyond 'when he came in he looked quite composed' (which to be fair he did). I'm not sure what his stand-out attributes are meant to be.Quote:

It would be a new and exciting path for Everton if they picked up some United fringe players.
It worked well enough for Hull and Sunderland.
Hopefully they end up on exactly the same path as Sunderland. They’ve been circling the drain like they were for a few years now.Quote:

I suspect the Fabinho one would happen with minimal fuss. If Lavia is as coveted as reported, then the ~£40m for Fabinho would essentially directly pay for him. Depends if Fabinho wants to go really.
It's a much easier sell for Henderson. He's 33, won everything at club level and has just seen the club buy two players for decent money in his position.
Fabinho is still 29 and I believe his issues last year were just him being fucking knackered. He might want to wait a few more years before taking the payday, but I suppose it depends how much they're offering him.
Honestly thought Fabinho was closer to 35. Christ, his fall off has been tremendous.
At least Henderson had a chance to show the world what his real moral character was. That's worth more than 700k per week.
I mean, it's not, but we can kid ourselves into pretending it is.
I presume he warned his mate 'Stevie G' of this as well, or perhaps just accepts that Stevie is not an ally.Quote:
Jamie Carragher warns LGBTQ+ 'ally' Jordan Henderson he'll face 'criticism' if he moves to Saudi Arabia - where homosexuality is illegal - for £700,000-a-week
I did enjoy Ferdinand digging Carragher out for continually criticising the whole thing for weeks and then saying absolutely nothing when Gerrard moved.
And I'm not sure what these players are supposed to do other than take the money. Everybody in the establishment (FIFA, our FA, Sir Gareth etc.) said it was ok to go and play in a World Cup in the Middle East, but what, now it's suddenly not ok to play for a club side there?
Before releasing that statement he probably just got off the phone asking if Stevie would get him a job.
Reminds me in ways of the LIV Golf situation. You might as well be one of the ones getting in and getting more money than you know what to do with, because eventually FIFA is just going to sanction it or have some kind of merger between the leagues.
As has been clear for ages, none of them give anywhere near as much of a shit about LGBTQ+ rights as they would like the general public to believe and Jordan Henderson won't be giving that a second thought in his decision either.
