If we chose Henderson over Mata i'd be up in arms with the rest of you but thats not whats happening. We can only sign british players until a certain date (cant remember what it is). It will be after the U21's when we will sit down with players like Mata and Enrique.
Did you think it coincidence we were only being linked with English players - Wickham,Henderson,Jones,Downing,McCarthy.
If we sign all of these players and Mata i will be [oops] my pants excited come the start of next season.
