Henderson actually had better stats than DDG during his sheffield loan. Not to mention he is younger and on lesser wages. He should be the obvious choice ahead.

I bet it ends up with him asking for a transfer by the end of this season,which means he has to be realistic with his wage demands at his next club. De Gea ask for a transfer? Not happening unless he’s dropped to no2 permanently which also won’t happen. If anyone puts in a request the way things are going it’ll be Henderson They are biding their time with DDG,it will end up with asking to go,they want his wage off the books & whilst he will attract a fair fee. |

Ok fair balance with gaffs Ddg has made this season Henderson has every right to make demands as he has not been given a fair shake on opportunities.
If he was played and told it’s yours to lose etc then he would not be agitating for anything.
Reality is DDG whilst he was the undisputed no.1 for me for many years has dropped down a level, and the drop down has cost us points whereas before he constantly saved us points.
It’s a shame as now that there are better players you would have hoped he would be part of a resurgence

Those last two sentences could be straight out of the Glazernomics handbook. For all we know Henderson could be the next Ben Foster. At this stage it’s potential. Obviously we won’t know unless he plays most games. But plenty have shown promise and wilted under pressure. |

He commands his box he barks out orders to his defence , he's good in the air, decent shot stopper. Plus look what's happened to Sheffield United since he left. Every time he's played he hasn't let us down. Just feel he deserves a proper run , if it doesn't work let him go then |

Obviously we won’t know unless he plays most games. But plenty have shown promise and wilted under pressure. So we sell Henderson instead? He's not going on another loan and he won't sit here as back up. Yeah he could be another Ben Foster, one player who didn't turn out the way we'd hoped. Or he could be another Giggs, Scholes, Beckham, etc, etc. We can't sit a player on De Gea's wages on the bench, and no way he tolerates that anyway in my opinion. So, one has to go. And it should be Henderson, because better the devil you know? Sometimes you need to take a risk. Fergie did it in '95. Hate to bring them into it but Liverpool did it letting Ince go to promote Gerrard. If we sell De Gea and Henderson goes to pieces as number one, meanwhile De Gea regains his best form elsewhere then we're all going to admit "Yup, that backfired on us didn't it", but we're going to say the exact same thing if we sell Henderson and see him become a top quality player and England's 1st choice whilst De Gea continues to go to shit. 2 into 1 doesn't go and one needs to leave. One option is to sell Henderson with a buy back clause, could work if the buying club agree to it, but then Henderson has to agree to come back as well, and who would blame him if he told us where to go, it's like your girlfriend telling you "I'm not sure if you're the one, so tell you what, I'm going go date this other guy for 6 months and then I'll be in a position to decide on you, coolio yeah?" Um , no, not fucking really like. |

De Gea’s probably my favourite United player of the last decade. At his best he’s as good a keeper as we’ve ever had. But his time is up for me.
Best case scenario, we sell up and Henderson is a capable replacement. Worst case scenario, we sell up and Henderson isn’t good enough in which case we buy another keeper who won’t be on anywhere near the wages Dave is.
Fact is, Henderson more than likely won’t be worse than De Gea is right now. He’s actively costing us games, alongside the Chuckle Brothers at CB. He’s not been the same since the World Cup and we can’t wait forever for him to maybe regain his form based on sentiment alone.

If Solskjaer had any bottle he’d play Henderson in the cup matches to keep him happy.
He’s too risk averse unfortunately.

We perservered with Rooney for at least 2 or 3 seasons past when we should have got rid, because "Remember how good he used to be? He's still only 26/27/28, not even peaked yet!". He bloody well had peaked and he should have been long gone. Imagine if we'd sold Rashford a few years back because Rooney was still here getting his game time. |

I dont have an issue with someone like Bruno getting good wages , but DDG is the highest paid keeper right now (saw somewhere he gets something like 3 times what Kasper Schmeichel gets) ,and he is not even the unquestionable no.1 in our squad. Players who earn ridiculous money without the performance is going to create an unhappy dressing room , not to mention difficulty in shifting them and other agents trying to match those crazy money for their clients in new contract negotiation. Even from a purely footballing perspective i would say Dean is the player on the up. |

A goalkeeper is usually only as good as his defense. Just putting it out there seeing as I'm seeing a lot of unfair things being written here about probably the best player we have had over the past 8 or 9 years.

So it appears this summer’s big tease is going to be Haaland. Multiple papers are going with it this morning. I wonder what derisory bid Ed will put in to get the ball rolling? 40 mill? J Lingz and 15 with add-ons? I just hope people aren’t too despondent when we end up with Danny Ings. as daft as it sounds, Lingard would do well at dortmund. id much rather get 30m off west ham though. then your half way there to sancho. |
