Why are we still debating Henderson?? seriously the guy is now a Liverpool player and deserves the backing of each and every one of you. This is becoming seriously annoying the 'English media' mentality that happens on here.
Even though he is a home grown talent playing for an English dynasty and has great potential to become a world beater lets crank up the heat on him saying that will he live up to the potential ensuring that the weight of the 16 million (which he didn't decide on) on his shoulders before his first game in a Liverpool shirt.
Even though he could well come good and will in all likelyhood take a few years to blossom lets nit pick at the price being paid and complain and point to the fee at every turn and lets make sure that if even for a minute that he appears over priced that our knives are nice and sharp and prepared for his back.
All of the journos have made a career bigging up a player then tearing him down every time England are in an international competition and alot of fans on this forum are guilty of the same.
Its not a rumour he has signed for us and now needs our full backing, obviously Kenny Dalgish (the man who signed many a Liverpool legend) has seen something in him that all of us haven't seen and until he gives us a reason to doubt him, why are we??
on a side note It amazes me that people complain about the lack of activity and inflated prices in the same breath. The reason there is no activity is that we are refusing to be put over a barrel for every purchase. Well said, completely agree with all of that.

Me too.
sort of dont get all the fuss really. Jones a decent 19 yr old with just a season in the prem has gone for 20mil+ and we say nothing; Henderson 20 has two seasons and played for the full english side and some dismiss him as crap.
Young gone to UTd for 16mil in the last year of his contract and Villa fans saying he has done nothing for two seasons(go to there websites) so good riddance. Yet we are moaning about a possible 17mil bid for Downing who has been voted there player of the year and raved about by Boro and Villa fans, each gutted to lose him(again check it out).
maybe the media are making your minds up for some of you?
UTD all good - LFC all bad.
never noticed?

never noticed? Happens all the time. Has been going on for years. I think it stems down to the media's (and pretty much most people involved in football's) fear of Fergie. Look at all the abuse Rafa got for his transfers. You could pick out a HELL of a lot of flops signed by Fergie over the years (even recently) - but they tend to be brushed under the carpet, because nobody would dare try tarnish the reputation of 'Sir' Alex Ferguson.

swede,,,i dont have good feelings about it.regardless of the money we may pay for him.his pace a major concern..i believe we r chasing him to feed the big man carroll and for that we might just pay over the odds for him...i find it somewhat similar to when we bought pregnant.
doesnt seem any step up to me.i hope he proves me wrong if he eventually plays for us.

Pregnant, lol! Whoever we eventually get, all the fans should get behind them, and not carry on this moaning. Henderson's getting stick from some quarters and he hasn't even played a minute for us yet.
Look at Lucas, the stick he got from a lot of Liverpool fans was disgraceful. Yet he's come back to prove everyone wrong (although there's some blinkered people who still can't see that). That showed major character on his part, but not all players can recover from such a loss of confidence.
