Makes that interview look even more daft. Doubt it was worth ruining his reputation over the absolute plum.
Jordan Henderson | New Athletic Interview: I strongly believe that me playing in Saudi Arabia is a positive thing
- Thread starter Adisa
- Start date
Makes the interview even more silly now. Tube.Easy fix
Can pretend he was coerced into it and felt obliged to praise the league while he was there. Then got away asap
The fact he’s taking a huge pay cut to return to Europe will still resonate with a lot of people
No, brexit means brexit innit mate you wot.
Glad to see the Netherlands still has some integrity
Going from Saudi Arabia to Amsterdam, one of the biggest difference in culture you can experience all over the world that
I'm a bit sad he ruined his reputation and legacy over this whole thing, but it did show what a cnut he is. No sympathy from me, gotta live with the consequences of your own decisions.

I doubt that schtick will work with members of the LGBTQ+ community along with many of their allies. It was always a big feck you in their face.

You lot made a tidy cash off of a horse that lost its legs. You should thank your old lad, Stevie for that.
We got nothing for Ronaldo.
Him and Fabinho, actually. Gerrard can be put in the same boat as all these players of course.
One of the oddest transfer sagas of recent times
Fast forward half a year...Wouldnt surprise me if it got odder and he joined United!
Played for Ajax? Check
Sign him!
Correct. He's a hypocritical prick. All this does is further cement his stupidity.
I mean he's wiling to compromise his principles so he'd be chomping at the bit to play for United. He'd probably kiss the badge and celebrate winning a penalty with a dive in front of the kop.
I first thought you were serious. Then you mentioned us getting a penalty in front of the Kop.
I'm just waiting for the shock announcement that we signed him to a 4 year deal on 300k a week.
he'd get a game
This will either be a huge success, or an enormous flop. He comes with too much expectation and too high a price tag for it to be anything in between
Nice. Another player in our radar now.
Unless he’s done an Adebayour and run from the other side of the pitch.
4x more Yachts.
I have no idea if I should be happy. I think I am though.
Made mad money in Saudi so he can go on the ultimate weed and hookers bender in dam #lad
Ajax is now my enemy.
I know gifs are not allowed in the footy forum otherwise I'd have posted some sort of handshake / high five / welcome gif.
He has looked like a complete idiot from day one.
shit, if he goes to Ajax, he'll be a ETH target come the summer if he's still here.
Were those 5 months really worth losing his reputation over at the age of 33, after playing PL football for over 12 years?
After the hit his rep took no surprise he's going to a club with the same name as a popular disinfectant.
There was no chance he was coming back to the PL, not if he didn't want to pay massive tax bill.

Really makes you wonder what these lads have going on upstairs.
Actually I should reframe that statement. I’m sure that interview was probably not his idea and it was probably some agent/PR company driven idea. If the same person was involved in that and then this he should get rid of them.
The guy makes my skin crawl. Yuck.
Does it?
or is it just a reminder of Footballer ego’s?
young lads in their 20’s earning millions per year, put high on a pedestal doted by fans as though they are legit GODS????
These guys are drama mega rich puppets, the mega rich don’t care nor listen too us peasants opinions of them
I'm so sick of all this claiming to be an ally then ditching support. I really hate the way some drape themselves in rainbow flags when it suits and they can get positive headlines, then drop the support if life gets tough or there's more money available. Applies to many sports organisations and commercial companies as well. Just sick of the bloody hypocrisy and being used to gain points during Pride. You’re either an ally or you’re not – and an ally is always an ally, not just when it’s convenient. Sorry for the rant.
Becoming their highest paid player of all time, apparently.
How on earth is he able to demand that level of money? He’s not exactly a decent footballer.
Based on the interview I saw on Sky, he'll be on 5m per year. If he was referring to pounds then that's just shy of £100,000 p/w.
So he's wrecked is reputation, made his family move to somewhere they didn't want to be, and is probably not going to get paid for doing it.
I almost feel sorry for him.

No need to be sorry about that, you are quite right.
