I suspect it'll be another Lucas all over again - a young player who is played by a manager who believes in him, when the rest of the world doesn't, only to finally be proven right.
Though, I still think he has been played too often and especially too often on the right.
Much easier to be a fan than a manager...
It would have been much better for him to have come here when Alonso-Masch was the midfield, and then blood him in slowly.. getting a season or two under his belt. We have thrown him straight in and hes nowhere near ready.
We need to sign a bonifide quality midfielder, a Javi Martinez.. and then slowly bring on Henderson. That way if he isnt good enough, it wont have as big an effect as it has done this season when hes been thrown in at the deep end and we haven't controlled games.
