    Hope he does well. Don't think he was ever realistically going to make it here. He's not as unathletic as his brother but there's not much in it.

    Aye good luck to him.

    Never really seen anything special in him, but he did have limited opportunity..

    Good luck to the lad. Nice technique but not a lot else that he offers I always felt.

    A move that makes sense for Henderson. Wish him all the best.

    Good luck to the bhoy, hopefully his career takes off at Hibs.
    There is a good player there and with good coaching hopefully he will make a good career down south.

    Happy days. Delighted for the lad, hopefully he kicks on and becomes a regular in their first team. Tidy player but just don’t think he was gonna make it here. Best of luck to him

    We don't give enough chances to academy players.

    He’s not exactly doing bad for himself and we could have used a player like him in recent times.

    I didn’t say he was, and he wasn’t and still isn't good enough for us.

    The club and him made the right choice by moving him on. He’d have been a bit part player, at best, here.

    I’m sure the same would have been said with Ralston a 3/4 months ago. Guys playing well at a very decent level, he’s another we let go for buttons though, rather than develop. We must so better in that area.

    Maybe. Always thought Henderson was far too slow and unathletic. Decent on the ball but not good enough to make up for his weaknesses elsewhere.

    I agree we need to do better when it comes to bringing through players and developing them, albeit many just don't have the tools to make it here.

    I trust Ange's judgment on what he wants from a player.. (McCarthy aside :fear:)

    My point was he obviously isn’t unathletic like you said if he’s playing in a league far far better than ours

    What does athleticism have to do with the level of football he's playing at?

    Charlie Adam played about 10 seasons in the EPL. He was hardly a physical specimen.

    Along with athleticism you said he wasn’t at the level we need…which is about the level of football he’s playing at, which like I said; much much better than ours
