    Well they can afford to take the hit and subsidise if necessary but think he will replace Declan Rice at West Ham next season.

    That’s going to be one hell of a subsidy

    Great. Only because they have a bottom less pit of money. I could manage them. I've no respect for them. Philip's is an average player, he was nearly sold as you know. Viera went instead. Bielsa made Philip's into a better player. Anyway he sold his soul got his money. For a lad of his age normally you,d want to be playing football. I dont know how anyone could live on 10 grand a week <cry>Leeds through and through my arse.<ok>

    I'd be more than happy to try, by way of a scientific experiment, if someone can sort out 12 months worth of funding :)

    Personally I'd never begrudge someone like Phillips the £20 to £25 million he'll earn for signing for City. Good luck to him and he didn't sell his soul just took the best contract his profession was offering.

    Do I agree with you about City buying their success ?

    Yes 100% but that's the times we're living in and they (City) aren't the only ones.

    Maybe he thought Jesse was a useless prick and the biggest fake coach to ever take charge of a PL team so jumped ship ;)

    Haaland is also a Leeds supporter, he’s not short of a few quid, just like they all do he followed the money. Fans rarely show loyalty to a player so why should they really. KP had his fans, he also had abuse early days and his haters.

    Just finished watching MOTD, apart from the Bournemouth result, a great saturday for us, oh and by the way, who the fck, scouts for Brighton , Enciso what a player he looks as though he could be, and cost just 9 Million, got to be said exceptionally well run club and i applaud them :emoticon-0132-envy:
    A point at least is doable on monday, and it would be a huge point after saturday's results.

    He loved Jesse. Took him to his word about overtraining and hasn’t got off his Arsenal to do so much as a sit up since.

    Truth is we wanted to sell KP as we needed to cash in on our assets to buy the next ones. Remember that Leicester model?
    <laugh>

    I don’t begrudge kp going but the rhetoric about mr Leeds was a bit cheesy at times. He was gutted when his sale to Villa fell through a few years back.

    Haaland has scored 47 goals this season from 40 matches. Awesome numbers but he has played 40 games already way more than any Leeds player. Yet there are some who say the players are tired? Long season yes but had weeks off for World Cup and loads of international breaks. How many were in Monaco last weekend

    These boys have been the most accurate computer modellers for a few seasons now. A couple of surprises but all very feasible

    Spot on about Brighton. Envision cost 9.5m <laugh>. Maybe radz could follow that model and get world class scouts at the club

    Haaland appears clever too when it comes to internationals. When it’s international week he’s usually carrying a knock and unavailable for his country
