DB10, I am not pro saudi and nor am I pro henderson who imo has never been any better than an average plodder in midfield - no doubt as the victims captain he would have been on (in lay man's terms) a decent wedge in scouseland, but tbf they aint the big payers that a lot of clubs are, so I doubt if he has made the type of money that a lot of players have. I would also say that he made no money on the back of his pro gay rights stance, so he hasnt been selling himself to portray a certain image, cos lets be honest here and say that he hasnt got the type of mug that companies are queuing up to use in endorsements (a face made for radio I would say). I find it amusing and contradictory that it seems the world is judging henderson but NOT ONE COUNTRY refused to play in the world cup in qatar - where is all the righteous indignation aimed at those countries and their fa's ? Why did supporters not boycott the tournament and force fifa to u turn ? A single player is expected to make a stand when countries, football associations and supporters didnt ? Fcuk that

I don't give a shit about countries augie. I'm addressing your statement that anyone that criticises Henderson is a hypocrite because we'd all do the same thing in his position.

The facts though are he does make money from endorsements and his image as a gay rights backer in this day and age I'm sure meant he got a few solely because some cynical brand wanted to be associated with a player like that.

Secondly most liverpool* and football related sites quote his net worth at roughly £25 million. That's not enough for him to tell the Saudi scum to fuck off? Seriously?

Can we at least all agree the Hendo is a massive cünt, but that sometimes it’s fine to behead homosexuals? :lol:

Fuck all the rats that went to Saudi for the blood money starting with chief rat Henderson. Mr. LGBT rights activist himself, who only a couple of years back had this to say -
“The idea that any of them would feel excluded from playing or attending a football match, simply for being and identifying as who they are, blows my mind."
Until his tiny little mind was no longer blown when he was happy to trouser 700 grand a week to play in a country where not being allowed attend a football game was the least of these people’s worries, where they could be beaten, jailed or even killed. Mind fucking blown indeed Jordan.

Then he had the fucking cheek to justify going out there by making up a bullshit excuse about wanting to grow the game in Saudi, before bailing after just 6 months when the dumb c.unt realised what an absolute shit hole it is.

Fucking rat bastard :twisted:

from todays Sun....

Gabby Agbonlahor believes Mikel Arteta has cost Arsenal a shot at this season’s Premier League title with the signing of Kai Havertz.

He told talkSPORT: “I think the biggest thing Arsenal fans are annoyed with and what Arteta will regret is spending a lot of his transfer budget on Havertz.

“He wasn’t the answer. They could have £65m available now towards getting a striker like Ivan Toney. It’s going to cost them.

“They’ve got [Fabio] Vieira, they’ve got [Emile] Smith Rowe who are probably better than Havertz in the same position.

“So for me, Arteta has cost Arsenal the title by spending money very stupidly, I’d say.”

Absofuckinglutley. Greedy little cúnt went there thinking only of the money and when he arrived suddenly realised that life is fucking horrible under that abhorrent regime. Spent what, five months there and has run away back to the safety and security of Amsterdam with millions in his bank account. Fucking hypocritical scumbag.

You can bet they already have someone lined-up ready to take over, unlike our load of re-active tossers who do not have a fuckin' Scooby. :? We'll be stuck with Captain Black for at least 3 more seasons regardless of how bad things get. #ArtetaOut #EduFuckOff

Apparently the Victims Board have known since November, you can bet they have been working in the background to secure the right person. Too much to hope for Slippy G..
Also if the Mancs get rid of Ten Hairs they'll also be after a manager.
If we got rid of Diet Pep we would be left with crumbs
