    Good Morning Everyone

    The transfer deadline day is upon us.

    Pierre-Michel Lasogga is NOT a done deal yet!

    Has the 25 year old been in secret talks with Villa behind our backs?




    What about Cibicki?

    There was a picture of him on twitter last night with a Leeds shirt, but no official word from Hay or Sobot

    please log in to view this image


    Furthermore, he was spotted down the road on the Emmerdale set...

    One player who won't be departing for pastures new is Stuart Dallas.

    The Northern Ireland international has penned a three year deal extension with the club.

    Do we expect any departures today?




    Will there be any unexpected signings?

    Morning all. Can’t remember last time we had a summer transfer day that we knew would be positive. So many years of fearing our last gem or two at the club would be flogged. This year, those who want to be here all tied down to long term contracts. Impending arrival of a couple of quality signings. Won’t be tuning in to sky coverage. They’re only interested in the usual few big name moves in and out of the top six. Lasogga and Cibicki transfer announcements being held back till today for a bit of publicity I’ll bet like
    Most clubs now tend to do

    Good Morning Matt from a very dull Bardsey.I have just come round having taken 2 of my grandchildren to the pleasure beach at Blackpool wit Moe .Thank goodness my wife came with me I was totally exhausted it was much more fun 67 years ago!
    I think we will announce the 2 strikers signing for us which means we have satisfied his mummyI bet he ha s been offered 1m
    euros if he propells us to promotion!!Still its better than wasting many millions on Rhodes!
    I think we may still go for a LB Time will tell.I was right when I suggested Dallas will either sign a contract extension or be sold
    Well I am pleased he has agreed to stay at the club as he is playing really well under TC

    Now Dallas has signed I'm not expecting anybody to go out but would be happy if Sacko went on loan (especially if Pep were to look after him for a year at Oxford).

    Glad we got Wood situation sorted last week rather than it happening today.

    In terms of today I'm expecting

    Cibicki in 99% to happen
    Lasogga in 90% to happen
    That Swedish defender Helander 20% to happen
    Someone we've never heard of/u21 to sign 20% to happen

    Someone to go out on loan 25% to happen
    Someone to leave 10% to happen.

    Looking forward to seeing what happens and then looking forward to it being shut and over and then getting on with the season.

    Deadline day is fkg joke. Months to start planning who Prem teams want, do fark all in most cases until last day, whats that all about ffs.

    As far as Leeds are concerned we did all our deals well inside the window, and its been brilliant, probably best ever. My understanding is that the Swede & the German are completed today when medical results come back. Swede done yesterday late so results back today, German had an ACL a while back so special attention paid to that, but expected today.

    We have cover all over the park in every position. CBJ can play LB or CB but think I prefer him at LB in place of Anita. We still have Pennington & Berardi to come back too. I agree that Sacko needs to go out and find himself and the shout for loaning him to Pep at Oxford is great.

    You probably know this already I am a dinosaur when it comes to computers and mobile phones I can't even answer one never mind not having one don't know how to text so twitter would be wasted on me!
    Interesting news today we are after George Hirst well I saw hid Dad makes his bebut for Barnsley and after the game he brought a crate of beer into the small players lounge which gave me an opportunity to c hat with the lad
    I told him that his debut was the best I had seen sine watching John Charles against Queen of the South and I could see him playing for his country
    Well he did play twice for England but his career was blighted when he injured himself standing on the ball at ER.I met Souness in Majorca.he had just been made player manager of Rangers I also recommended Platt of Crewe and Geoff Thomas of Crewe who I had watched when I tried to visit all the grounds pity he did'nt listen to me!
    I have always scouted other teams players is a hobby with me so lets hope we sign George by all accounts he is some striker but why would Wed sell him for £2m!

    Love the way everyone we sign is on for 4 years, except for Temp Andy L who is here as back up to Felix & help for BPF

    The only loan player will be Lassoga

    morning all ... pleased Cibicki is here, another young talent who fits the new Leeds profile ... no more signing donkeys and journeymen and waving goodbye to our season come October ... hopefully Lasogga's medical is ace and he joins as welł, that will round the squad off nicely with a bit of experience

    Tommy said that he was working personally with our rough diamonds Sacko and Ekuban, helping them to understand what runs to make when and how to bring others onto the ball in the attacking third ... if this is the case then loaning Sacko out right now may not be an option while Tommy oversees his development, but come January Tommy could feel he is ready for a loan move if he's not pushing for a starting spot ... game time will do Sacko a lot of good, and I'm also all for Oxford as we know we know we can trust Pep to help with his development, but not sure if Pep will want to look after a developing youngster in a potential promotion season
