The latest from our pursuit of Henderson + others from the Times:
They're reporting that N'gog is likely to be used as a makeweight as part of the deal with Sunderland wanting £13m + N'gog, with Liverpool offering £11m + N'gog. One way or another, it looks like that deal's going to go ahead. They're also reporting that once the Henderson deal is tied up, we'll look to do deals for Adam, Downing and Wickham.
With Henderson's versatility, I'd have thought we wouldn't then need to sign another CM in Adam; clearly Dalglish rates him very highly though. With Suarez and Carroll, Wickham makes perfect sense; it's difficult to have 3 high profile strikers so signing the best youngster available to us is the next best thing. And Downing; as I've said before, there's certainly better wingers than him but imo, he's the exact type of wide player we need. We don't need another wide player that looks to cut inside and link with the midfielders - we've got plenty of those already - we need somebody that's going to give us width and will provide the service for Carroll.
