If Duran went for £20m+, then I think we’d move to the next level up in striker and not a sidewards move for somebody as raw as Duran. I’m not the kind of person who says x won’t move here to sit on the bench but genuinely this player doesn’t have to move to us to compete with Ollie, he can move to a club as big or bigger and be automatic first choice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also don't think we have much leeway with FFP to spend £30-40m net this January. Who knows! I think we probably do have enough leeway to spend that level money, on 5 year deal that would be 6-8m amortisation per year and only part of that would hit this year’s financial accounts. It may mean we have to sell more in the summer but selling Azaz for a couple of million would cover the part year amortisation cost for the rest of this financial year because we can take that as pure profit this financial year. Depends what his wages would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him and Phillips should offer them the pedestrian midfield they seem to be looking for (perhaps Southgate is giving Howe some helpful tips). I would have perhaps taken Henderson 3 or 4 years ago, but as has been said, he's way past his best now and wouldn't be worth the high wages he would anticipate getting. He's a Makem. I'm sure he could stretch his principles one last time though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah don’t dispute that but there could be many reasons why he’d choose us, just as there are reasons why he wouldn’t, one you rightly point out. Many players move where competition is harder…I can name loads like Caicedo moved to Chelsea who just brought Enzo, Rays/Ramsdale, even Tielemans when we have Kamara, Dougie, McGinn and Ramsey playing so well.

Quality cover for DM, wants out of Saudi… I mentioned it a and got shot down. I think the FIFA generation look at anyone over 27 who's not Linford Christie (Google it) as totally useless. I think he could do a job as cover at CM and would be positive for the dressing room. I'd only be behind it if we could do it on the cheap though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I can confirm Henderson is totally useless and an utter asshat to boot. I'd rather have Glenn Whelan back at current age. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
