Got to feel for Dan James. Nearly signed for us and his chairman pulled the plug so he has to remain at Swansea (never complains). Joins Manchester and plays PL football and gets sold to us. Gives it 100% every game but gets loaned out by can’t coach Jesse who probably hates having Bielsa memoirs on the pitch

He comes back to us when relegated, he declares early on his intention to stay and fight, he still gives it 100% every game and watching the rats around him refusing to play yet STILL he is singled out and slaughtered by many.

I feel for him. Signed too early to get the loan deal gig. Not good enough to justify a release Clause.

Poor fcker’s stuck here on half money so has to pretend he wants to be.

Although in jest most of the above is likely true. The part that isn’t is it’s known James wanted to come to Leeds and didn’t want to leave. He also always gives 100% so has my backing even if his end product is often disappointing.

Incidentally, He actually featured a bit under Marsch before being shipped to Fulham. I believe there was talk that we had too many wingers and James had to go to make room for the striker we were after ( that ended up being Gnonto/Rutter) - ie it wasn’t Marsch wanting rid. Who knows for sure.

What’s this Romano bloke got to say about his “Gnonto to Everton terms agreed done deal” statement from last week?

Gone a bit quiet on that one hasn’t he?

This is the biggest problem facing FARKE and Leeds because Rodrigo was in the top 4 premier league scorers last season and only just behind Haaland and Kane in goals per minute played. Sinisterra was also just behind Rodrigo in goals per minutes played. Then you get Harrison a long way back but he chipped in and so too did Summerville and even then we as a team didn’t score enough goals to stay up. We have now sold Rodrigo, Sinisterra apparently wants out Harrison has gone and Summerville another one who could leave.

FARKE has said we need between 70 and 100 goals for promotion yet we have lost or are in the process of losing goal scorers and no sign of replacing them

Indeed Doc. Farke's Norwich got promoted by Teemu Pukki's goals twice. We're all asking where the goals will come from. No option but to wait until the window closes and see what we have.
