Lee Hendrie speculation!

lil eva · Lee Hendrie speculation!

Speculation is growing that Leeds boss Simon Grayson is set to make a move for Sheffield United midfielder Lee Hendrie. The 32-year-old, who picked up an England cap in 1998, previously made over 250 Premiership appearances for Aston Villa.

Grayson signed Hendrie on loan last season whilst still in charge at Blackpool, and is clearly a fan, stating at the time: 'Lee Hendrie is a good player, he is very versatile and can play through the middle or down either side. He is a player I know from my time at Aston Villa.'

Hendrie would add some welcome flair to United's midfield should they be tempted by an offer for the services of Fabian Delph before the start of the new campaign.

I do hope not. Hendrie isn't so much of a has-been, more of a never-was

His signings (or lack thereof) have been somewhat disturbing. We seem to be getting linked with a bunch of no hopers. Surely Leeds United can attract a better class of player, even in league one?

As it is now, i can't see us even getting to the playoffs, especially if a few of our best players get picked up.

I was just thinking along the same lines after yours and Gaz's comments!!!
If these are the players we are attracting then we don't stand much of a chance.
Hopefully Grayson can see the potential in them that we can't..........he has made decent enough signings so far,so we wait with baited breath

Exactly yes, he has so far proved right so we should at least trust him, but as a fan, it's not looking great...but then again the signings of Peter Barnes and Tomas Brolin looked great to the fans, so only time will tell.

Hendrie hmmmm Think when his playing career is over, his claim to fame will actually have been Jade Goody - norty boy

Does have a bit of a bad boy reputation
