Ed001 if your about mate.The story of Henderson going to Fulham as part of the Dempsey deal is that 100% on the button?Cause I remember another story out at the time and I am sorry but I can't remember who said it that it was just a loan deal.Can you clear that up for me please?
Thanks all Eds&Reds

{Ed001's Note - it was initially a loan deal, Fulham were keen on it being a permanent deal, but Hendo rejected the chance to even discuss either kind of move with them.}

Thank you Ed001.Thank God he stayed.What a honest and decent player he is

Def like Hendo but he seems to have become a bit more verbal in a negative way towards refs since his Vice Captain role - might be wrong but wonded if yellow cards have increased since. Maybe EMS can clarify.
No one saying that about Borini. I guess Borini just needs too justify staying by turning the managers head for game time
So we tried to swap Jordan Henderson for Clint Dempsey?
Wow

Dempsy scored close to 25 goals in that season for Fulham.
There is no real surprise in going for him.
{Ed002's Note - A very embarrassing time for the club - particularly Mr Werner.}
It was aweful TW business and thank heavens, Hendo knuckled down and stayed because he has been pivotal for us since then. Great determination and work ethic and some sublime passing ability. 10 assists on the season isn`t that bad for a "side-ways" passer.
Ed001 why was it embarrassing for Tom Werner? As a fellow American was he keen to do the Dempsey deal at the expense of Hendo?
{Ed002's Note - Liverpool were tapping up the player.}

Ohh yes. I missed it. The tapping up and those stuffs. Two players I loved from fulham those time Ed. Dembele and Dempsy.

In what way was it embarrassing for Mr Werner??
{Ed002's Note - Because of the tapping up.}
And of course, tapping up rarely happens in football.
