    What is Sven doing!!! A striker who only scores goals and doesn't pass...oh and hates being subbed - what a mistake!

    Oh, hang on....isn't that exactly what we needed?!

    not a dribbler, but as long as we dont expect him to make his own chances, he will be very good.

    can he head?

    ^ also note i dont think he took more than 2 touches in any goal. clinical, but doesnt 'beat a man'. What we need, but lets remember this when he inevitably has his 'dry spell' like all do and not call him lazy...

    Can you see into the future or something Lord? <laugh>

    Typical reaction from a fan who is probably still sore he left Leeds in the first place. You're entitled to your opinion, but I'm more inclined to go along with Best Fans who seems a little more sensible and less tribal/mardy <ok>

    Meh, at least he said he can score goals, and thats what hes here for, no doubt he will be the target man in the centre of the box.

    He is a lazy player but the one thing he can do is score goals and thats all you can ask of a striker.You will get fed up of some of his antics but put up with them you have got yourselves a class finisher.He struggled in the premiership but anything below that he will do well in.At least you have someone who will spend some money.

    We are used to lazy forwards in the Sven setup, but as long as they score goals, i dont mind much

    18 goals from Midfield, yeah Gradel is just awful isn't he. Read my post I never said Jermaine Beckford is sh!t, he's good if you want a bag full of goals but he is **** in every other position, he doesn't pass, he doesn't run, ask the Everton fans. And btw your a bit of a hypocrite aren't you, "the first hate-filled Leeds fan to tell us how s*** one of their own ex-players are" weren't you just telling me how **** Gradel was??? btw we don't say our ex players are sh!t, we give honest accounts of how they performed for us and then you Leicester boys start thinking you no more about them than us because you have seen them play for 2 games for you.

    or buying quality bargains like Andy Lonergan for 200k who has pretty much single handedly kept Leeds out of the relegation zone. What has kasper done? got sent of for acting like a 6 year old who didn't get his sweeties.

    What has Lonergan done?

    Kasper has won us about 4/5 points this season.

    This!

    I love how Leeds like to comment on Kaspers performances in a Leicester shirt. Thery havent seen him play, unless ofcourse they are all Fox fans in disguise!

    Trust us - he has saved us more points than he has cost. And if you saw Weales contribution in those 10 minutes then you will realise that 1.5M well spent :) Cheers!

    Actually made me laugh.

    <laugh>

    I'm not annoyed at all as I'm of the opinion that Beckford hoovers the goals out of the team and is anonymous for 88 of the 90 minutes. But you can't deny he's a prolific goalscorer who creates chances out of absolutely nothing at times. He'll score you 15-20+, but I'd say at the expense of the scoring records of players like Andy King. I wouldn't want that at Leeds except as a supersub, but I guess it might suit a setup like Leicester's better.

    He's not just a goal poacher, he can score goals out of nothing. But like Leeds-18 says he is a passenger for a lot of the game.

    It depends on the game. I've seen him work quite hard in some games and do a lot of gruntwork. He does quite often just act like a passenger and "feed on the weak" so to speak, but I have seen him provide a supporting role at times.

    he cant score out of nothing from what ive seen. He needs to be put trhough to score. But put him through and, unlike fryatt, your guanteed a goal.
