Was Henderson signed to replace De Vriies or just to challenge for the no 1 spot? If he was just signed to challemge for the shirt why was there not an equal replacement for De Vries before we let him go? In my view it was a catastrophiic error to let De Vries go. He was our player of season last season. Does anyone think Henderson is a suitable replacement for De Vries?

Henderson is the source of a lot of our uncertainty in defending crosses. Rather than come and clean everything up, he, s rooted to his line and leaving the CBs with it all to do.

Devries was a constant communicator. With the defence being asked to play some football this season, Henderson needs to pick up more slack at the back.

The relationship between defender and a GK works both ways. The defenders need to know they have someone behind them who has their backs and vice versa, in the current state, I don't think neither our defence or GK has confidence in each other. Henderson needs replacing and the rest of the work is done of the training field.

I think Henderson still looks a bit shaky; should have come out for the cross when Will grigg scored! Although once he has found his feet think he will be quite a good goalkeeper. Still think we should try and buy Dimi as he was quality for Middlesbrough last season and knows the league!

Is Henderson a brilliant goalkeeper, no off course not.

In his defence he came to us having little playing time, thinking he was going to be a backup keeper, then seeing different players in front of him in each game.

You, yourself said confidence works both ways, yet it is only Henderson you want replacing.

We are a team getting use to playing open football, we should just let the manager do what he feels is best, and hope he gets the time to get the balance of the team right.

Henderson deserves another 5-6 games, if the manger sees fit to see if he is capable of doing what the manager asks of him.

Doris came to us someone that was a backup, then got injured tieing his laces up, then was player of the season last season.

Patience is key.

Hendersonville big problem is being to quiet, a good keeper needs to be very vocal but he probably doesn't have the confidence to boss his defence come on open your gob as we say here!
