LFC : Jordan Henderson, the first catch

Jordan Henderson, Liverpool's first catch during the close season. However the fee and details of the contract were disclosed by the club.

Still 20, Henderson signed a long term contract after completing a medical at the club before joining England U-21 for the European Championship.

This is Kenny's first signing since the end of last season. Reports from newspapers were saying Henderson costs Liverpool around £20 million and are among the best prospects in England for the future. He will now compete with Steven Gerrard, Lucas, Meireles, Spearing, Shelvey and Poulsen in Liverpool's midfield.

Having showing a consistent performances in midfield for Sunderland last season it was no surprise when Hendo is being eyed by Dalglish and Comolli.


Some might argue that Liverpool have too many midfield players right now and we should get players from other position. Having 6 midfield is not 'many' where the team might play at least 3 of them at 1 time. Without European football next season, Liverpool needs a 'big' squad with good players to challenge for everything. It's also good where everyone can be fresh and fit.


Liverpool FC are on a 'rebuilding' project. Getting the best youngsters will only bring good stuffs back to the club in the near future. I am expecting Kenny and Comolli to sign another player withing  these few weeks.

It's also good to see the owner's intent and their involvement during this summer.
