Thomas L'Heureux He was pretty much the reason behind the Santos manager's sacking last season:

Good write up. Same old same old. All those millions in the bank at 18, the fame, the media and then the crap attitude.

A lot of South Americans struggle in Europe when they're not so much revered and don't receive special treatment. £40million is a big risk.

£40m for an ego as big as that is ludicrous.. I'd rather fork out £50m for Torres.

Sunderland reportedly had a £13m bid accepted for Connor Wickham - makes the £12m for O'Shea, Brown and Gibson look even better !

Liverpool and Co expected to wade in with bids as well. That is madness for an unproven Permiership player. Sets another new standard for clubs like Reading when we unearth another Sigurdsson though!

I remember reading that at half time during one game last season his team mates walked off to the dressing room and he walked over to the media and stayed on the touchline discussing live on TV how well he had played during the 1st half.

Darius Henderson signs for Millwall, presumably to score a hat-trick on opening day and then not much else

Good signing for them. A decent replacement for Morison and he knows what he's doing in this league.

He's actually got a reasonable scoring record, but his game is about a lot more than just goals.

I don't think you could blame him for Sheff Us relegation seeing as he was out injured for most of the season.

Yep and a 1 in 4 ratio is pretty good going. Just got to keep the lad fit.

Henderson on a free transfer is a bargain - Pardew said he's worth £2million :mrgreen:

Of £1.25M

Not really the sort of striker that QPR will need to survive imho.
