Comparison yes, to say Henderson is at Cesc's level, at least too early to tell.
Hendo had a good last season granted. Ramsey had a good season. Both have had 1 good season. I don't see either yet coming close to what Cesc as a player is.

Henderson just needs to add goals to his game, he'd be top class IMO.
Haha, I love Brands. Though I imagined he would have come up with something faster, it took him almost 24 hours to do something with this news.
Ugh, seeing Cartoon Soldier's posts through quotes is like seeing an appalling advert popup whilst you're trying to watch some good, hearty porn.
Of course you can compare the two you dolt, they're both central midfielders in the Premier League. Both of which can also play box to box. Cesc's previous club let him leave for £27 million. That's fucking nothing in today's money. If you think Henderson's valuation would be any less you're crackers. And Henderson was the engine behind our title challenge last season.
You can ignore that and pretend he's still the player he was at Sunderland or accept that he's one of the best purchases our club has made in the past five years, alongside the likes of Suarez and Sterling.

As somebody who watched Cesc in pretty much every game he played between the ages of 16 to 24 I can tell you he is not a box to box player. He doesn't have the engine to function in that role and we never played him in such a role either.

Did you skip some posts?
I never said anything about Henderson being bad (he was initially). I said he had a good last season. All I said is to say he is anywhere close to Cesc at this point in time doesn't make sense.
Maybe he can be there in 3-4 years, but I doubt it because he is not as technically gifted to be able to add the goals/assists that Cesc gets.

There's only one Sal in my heart, and he's a Welsh Australian with a beard and a taste for Koreans.

Don't worry, the whole world saw how good he is during the world cup.

Copenhagen did the same once, to be fair he was actually truly clueless. Was hilarious seeing him smoking a 20pack each match though
Madrid play Seville on Tuesday for the actual Super Cup is what I was referring to.

Ooh, the European supercup yeah. Over here we name the match between the cup winner and league champion also the supercup. In Spain and Germany too btw. EPL pls
Firstly, that's cool then. He doesn't have the same engine as Henderson, apologies.
Second of all this is a good opportunity for you to divorce yourself from the Arsenal perception of Cesc. Just like Henderson is a different player to what he was three years ago, so is Cesc.
My point still stands, I'd love to know why Cesc and Henderson are not comparable? Why can't I say I'd prefer one over the other? Henderson was one of the three most important players in a squad that took the title race to the final few weeks of the season. Cesc just left a club who's fans were applauding his exit.
Now you're just making yourself look stupid.
Can't compete with the Asian connection, I'm afraid.

He hasn't been seen in Russia yet though.
In other news, Buttner just scored a 30 yard screamer.
Ruled out for offside.

Another player (useless lump known as Kevin Kuranyi) was deemed to be interfering with the keepers vision in an offside position.
That's terrible. Was he really or would you say the ref was bullshitting?
Is the demo already out?
Sviatoslav
Member
I don't think the keeper would have saved even if he saw it clearly.
Now I feel bad for Buttner. Sometimes the rules of football are so lame. It all comes down to individual interpretation by the ref anyways.

What makes it worse is that it's against Spartak. Fuck Spartak. Hopefully Valbuena gets subbed on in the second half and tears them a new one.

Did we... Did we just buy an actual GK?
Is this real life?

Believe in the power of Kevin Kuranyi.
Managers don't matter. Follow your leader confuziz to glory in the Serie A.

Did you not read what I said earlier? He was responsible for Buttner's goal being taken away.

We lost 5-1 to City bench players. And I'm pretty sure some of them were even stand players.
I wish it wasn't
Might be our starting lineup against Southampton, if Sturridge keeps himself fit.
Sherwood 20-1 for the Hudders job
I might cry with happiness
Their deluded fans talking about Zola or Moyes
Have I gone to football heaven
aye, said it a while ago that squad they are building is really tasty. Wilson is the perfect Grabban replacement.

When everyone is fit I can see four starting line ups:
Henderson Gerrard Can
Sterling Sturridge Coutinho
Henderson Gerrard Can
Sterling Sturridge Lallana
Henderson Gerrard Coutinho
Sterling Sturridge Lallana
This is one one I am really interested in seeing:
Henderson Can Coutinho
Sterling Sturridge Lallana
I think Henderson, Can, Coutinho is our future midfield as Gerrard starts to get phased out.
