His last season for us. Third choice back up striker. Could be useful as a squad player at some point (...ok, maybe not)

I can't see anyone paying a fee for him or the club triggering a contract extension the following year for a player on 250K or whatever it is. Hardly likely to attract interest from a top rival when he does leave either.

I'd be very surprised if he's still around if we receive anything close to a decent offer for him. Arguably his only great asset was his dynamism and directness and they look to have both been shot to feck, he's looked sluggish by his standards on the ball for some time now, not sure if it's because of injuries taking their toll or what not, but I just don't think the other parts of his game are or ever will be good enough to make up for that.

I honestly think he's terrified to sprint. Which is both annoying and probably reasonable on his part given his muscles are made of cheese

He’ll play pre season and be like prime Henry again before turning back to Martial when the real football starts

I heard a rumour he’s out for the first 6 weeks of the season with a hip injury?

He is going nowhere let’s be realistic . He’s a crock , inconsistent and on ridiculous wages. Hopefully we release him next season

Just seen he's possibly out for the first 6 games with a hip injury - unsure of validity of this

We desperately need to get rid of him, his availability is ridiculous and cannot be relied upon, if we have to go into next season with him as the only striker we are fecked. Hell we are fecked even if he's back up as he can't be relied upon to be available!!

Injury record, lack of performances and huge salary means we’re stuck with him and until his contract runs out. Maybe we can shift him on a free or loan to the Saudi clubs who could cover most of his salary. We’d need to sign 2 strikers basically, unless Rashford deputises as the number 2 CF.

I expect absolutely nothing from him the rest of his time here. Just a case of counting down the days till the nightmare that is his 5 year extension is over. Sooner we can get two CFs the better so he can ride out his final days at the club on the bench.

It actually makes, his combo of fitness+wages makes him very tough to sell.
We’re yet to sign a CF, he won’t be leaving unless we sign 2, regardless of interest in him

In an ideal world he's involved in some sort of swap deal for Kane and then Levy can spin it as something positive, until he gets injured again or stops trying 10 games in.

Let’s just assume he doesn’t play for us. Woeful injury record. I thought him being missing for the first 2/3rds of the season was a pisstake until he also missed the last third of it.

Honestly we need to just let him go for a nominal fee somewhere. Get the wages off the books. I don’t care if he suddenly turns in to Henry elsewhere

I'm sorry to say this but at this point he just needs to retire

You can't get his wages off the book without paying him first.

Going round he is recovering from a Hamstring injury he got 28th May vs Fulham, VDB is continuing an individual program and Henderson has made his intention to leave clear
