Toon And Mackems - The Nursery Clubs For Liverpool?

08 June 2011 16:01
Andy Carroll jumped ship to join Liverpool in January, and Jose Enrique looks certain to do the same. Now we hear Sunderland chairman Niall Quinn has moved to reassure the Mackems of his ambition as Jordan Henderson joins Liverpool in a £20million switch. Alan Pardew says the club is trying to reach the heights of Liverpool and the top four ... but how can we when the Reds plunder the north-east for our best players? Niall Quinn: "Jordan is a credit to himself, his family and Sunderland's Academy and everyone here wishes him the very best for the future. "I'm pleased that we got the deal to a level that we felt was right for our club. "We know the areas that need strengthening and the type of player we need in order to progress, and the job of bringing those players to the club is continuing at a pace." Didn't Pardew say very much the same when Carroll went to Anfield?
