what are hendersons strengths? Theres been little spoken of it in the thread
better for you tu run away, except for sentimentality, you have no argumentsI'm sorry, I thought you were capable of having an adult conversation. Byeeeeee.
10 nowFor what it’s worth
PL Clean Sheets
DDG -7
Henderson -9
I’d still have Henderson on loan for another season . Even if I’ve read on this thread his new contract was worse than signing Sanchez on his contract and he’s suffering from depression.

The club saw Dr Gea as a major asset since his contract was about to run out but this policy is applicable to all players hence the reason we offered new contracts to the likes of Jones, Rojo in the past.Henderson should be our no.1 next season but the club sees De Gea as a major asset, like Pogba. For me De Gea needs a fresh start to get back to something close to his best but I don't see the club moving him on.
What he needs is competition and Henderson should be made to come back for a season to battle for that number 1 jersey. Henderson can play fa cup and league cup, the odd champions league game or europa too to keep him busy.Henderson should be our no.1 next season but the club sees De Gea as a major asset, like Pogba.

Henderson is not going to go from being first choice in a well performing team who could make Europe themselves to playing Cup comps and being back up to De Gea.What he needs is competition and Henderson should be made to come back for a season to battle for that number 1 jersey.

Well first of all he got better stats than De Gea this season, more clean sheets and less goals conceded in similar no. of games played.what are hendersons strengths? Theres been little spoken of it in the thread
For starters his save percentage is up around 75% while De Gea's is only about 70%.what are hendersons strengths? Theres been little spoken of it in the thread
He's not going to publicly call De Gea shit is he? Especially when the 2nd option probably isn't better than him.With Ole's obsession towards de Gea, I can hardly see Dean stand a chance to be our no. 1 next season. When de Gea repeatedly made mistakes last season, Ole still decided to stick with him. I can't see a single reason why he will be dropped in the foreseeable future, especially with Ole's lack of confidence in youngsters.
I thought Courtois was doing really well for them this season?Newspapers linking Real with De Gea again, I can't see it happening personally, but a big offer from them could be very interesting development.
Same, I can't begin to imagine them spending the reported 70m plus wages on De Gea when Courtois is finally starting to look more comfortable there.I thought Courtois was doing really well for them this season?
If he goes on loan next season, that will be his 6th loan. What is he, a Chelsea player?He's 23 in a few days, there is no need to rush him, especially when we have de Gea and Romero.
Another year on loan at Sheffield United and around the England squad will be my preferred choice, then see how he is coping after next season.

Didn't expect to see De Gea,linked to Real again, especially at 70m. If there is any truth in it, I would take that and bring back Henderson as it would add substantially to our transfer budget and at the same time bring our wages down significantly.Newspapers linking Real with De Gea again, I can't see it happening personally, but a big offer from them could be very interesting development.
He is. Arguably better than DDG is doing for us. Certainly not 70 million worth of upgrade. Probably just media clickbait.I thought Courtois was doing really well for them this season?
Send him on loan to Chelsea. He can have a season in the Champs League to prepare himself for when/if you guys ever make it back in.Needs to work on his grip IMO. Another season at Sheffield would be most wise move for now I think.
I wouldn't loan to you as I've heard although I don't know how much truth there is in it, that you want him on a permanent.Send him on loan to Chelsea. He can have a season in the Champs League to prepare himself for when/if you guys ever make it back in.
I doubt we'd sell him to someone we're in direct competition with, by the sounds of it he's picking up interest across Europe.The board have made too much of a financial investment in DDG to bench him, so he's our #1 for the foreseeable future. The time to move on DDG was the summer or even the one before that, now we won't be able to shift him even if we wanted to. I fully expect Henderson to be permanently signing with someone else in the summer and it won't be Sheff United, it'll be a bigger side such as Chelsea if Roman decides to shift Kepa and back Lampard. It'll be a shame, but I wouldn't blame the kid whatsoever.
The Premier League and Championship are far, far bigger tests of pressure than a U21 tournament.He's not ready to come in and replace De Gea. I know he has another years experience but he crumbled at the U21 tournament which was his first real taste of pressure, Internationally.
You know what the United fanbase is like, one mistake which is bound to happen will result in a social media and media frenzy. I think one more season away from Old Trafford will do him a world of good.
What I mean by obsession is to stick with a goalkeeper who repeatedly makes mistakes in consecutive matches directly leading to plenty of dropped points while the backup keeper is not bad at all.To call playing your clubs best goalkeeper every week an obsession is peak Ole out mental gymnastics.
True and it does make sense to judge him over 2 full seasons as opposed to a Tournament.The Premier League and Championship are far, far bigger tests of pressure than a U21 tournament.
De Gea with all his issues (and he's got many) is still the clubs best goalkeeper. He's better than Romero and he's better than Grant.What I mean by obsession is to stick with a goalkeeper who repeatedly makes mistakes in consecutive matches directly leading to plenty of dropped points while the backup keeper is not bad at all.
To call de Gea the best goalkeeper is peak inmate in jail who missed the past year's games and was still living in the past.
For your reference Lampard dropped Kepa for no obvious mistake and he came back stronger. This is how you deal with a keeper.
There's no fight though when one of the goalies is on the wages DDG is on. Look at Romero, he's been more or less faultless whenever he has had a chance but hasn't been given the first team spot.True and it does make sense to judge him over 2 full seasons as opposed to a Tournament.
What I'm getting at though is the pressure of playing for England and Man Utd is much higher than Sheffield United. We will never really know unless we give him the chance. I think him and DDG should both be at the club fighting for that spot.
Romero isnt a future United number 1 though.There's no fight though when one of the goalies is on the wages DDG is on. Look at Romero, he's been more or less faultless whenever he has had a chance but hasn't been given the first team spot.
