Dean Henderson slammed after branding Man Utd treatment "criminal" in rant

Former England defender Danny Mills has laid into Dean Henderson after the goalkeeper branded his treatment by Manchester United as "criminal".

The 25-year-old stopper has moved on loan to Nottingham Forest for the season after failing to get a look-in at Old Trafford last campaign, despite him insisting he was promised the No.1 spot. Henderson had performed well on loan at Sheffield United the season prior, forcing his way into the England squad in the process, and claims United chiefs told him he was certain to replace David de Gea between the sticks.

Things didn't pan out that way, however, with Henderson racking up just three appearances all season - none of which came in the Premier League, which only convinced him to force through a move to Forest. "I turned so many good loans down last summer for that reason [being told he would be No 1], and they wouldn't let me go,” Henderson told talkSPORT.
