Re: Lee Hendrie
We couldn't get him permanently- if we could, then I'd be more supportive, but as a loan signing all he'd do is cause bad feelings at the club, and make McKenna and Sedgwick feel that the manager had no confidence in them to perform regularly.
Mellor woud be a risk to any club due to his injury prone record- hence no Premiership clubs wanted him. He's also relatively unproven, despite his important goals for Liverpool.
We are in the Championship for the forseeable future, and our midfield is performing. There is no good need to rock the boat when we've finally found a pairing that works.
The squad does need trimming, because we have an extermely high wage bill. Bringing in an Aston Villa player is not going to help that situation. Loaning younger playres out will help a little on a temporary basis, but we're working at the moment, so we don't need to start messing up the main squad.
