    Southampton were absolutely crud last season, by far the worst team in the Prem, but over the Summer, with all the changes made to both clubs, we are far behind them.

    As I mentioned earlier we are around £100m behind them and Leicester. Simple really they sold players and brought in £100m each when relegated, we loaned out around £100m, crazy, stupid.

    Not going to happen again on my watch ……

    The only slight thing in Gnonto's defence is he's likely supporting his whole family financially. Shouldn't be that way and his folks should just let him get on with his career but it's likely he's under pressure to force a move and move up the pay scale for the next four years at Everton.

    Still a ****er but just a young kid with potential untold riches right in front him.

    Perhaps a compromise might be a new improved contract for the little twat ?

    Yeah, my heart bleeds for the poor sod on around 20k a week.
    We gave him a chance to play at the highest level, which he did and now rewards LUFC with 'I don't want to play'.
    He can go **** himself.

    For me Gnonto can go do one and the reality is he did nothing for us post Oalace game so was part of the reason we were relegated. He wasn’t getting picked by any of the managers was he only as a sub a few times? So would prefer to quadruple the money we paid for him and add it to the Adams £24m and sort this squad out

    Another of the rats Marc Roca is following up from his Man of the match performance last week with a real battling display for Betis against Atl Madrid. He's scrapped and fought more in this 90 minutes than I've seen him in a season at Leeds.

    Long may it continue. We may get cash next summer for him.

    Didn't he also scrap and fight during his time with Leeds ?

    Just with his own players that's all <whistle>

    With no relegation or promotion clauses. No loan clauses.

    Sack your agent, apologise, gift a few thousand to the local kids hospital, give up Sundays to help local charities and fight hard and we might let him stay to sweep up the terraces or something.

    He's playing great over in Spain although very early doors. The slower game suits him well.

    Whilst it would be nice to get some money back from the deserters like Roca personally I'd prefer to wish them a fate worse than death.

    Horrible people the lot of them.

    Rasmus Kristensen getting pelters from Roma fans, they do not like him at all.

    One said 'All mouth no trousers', strange expression but that's how it translated,

    Another, 'what's the point in this player'

    Another questions Mourinho's sanity signing him

    Unfortunately we still own him so his value decreases as it wasn't a loan to buy.

    No way is he at Roma's level.

    Might have done ok for us in the Championship but f*ck him and f*ck him again when he comes back.

    The weird thing about this transfer window is the possiblity of some of those ****ers coming back and having to walk out onto the pitch again at ER next August.

    Now normally I'm not the vindictive type but I'd kinda like to let them know a few home truths if you follow my drift.

    ‘all mouth no trousers’ is a common phrase in the milky household… all talk no action.

    fits me perfectly

    says the man wishing a fate worse than death to a bunch of footballers - whose crime is doing what their employment contracts were designed to encourage them to do

    I don’t think any of them will ever wear the Leeds shirt again.

    Wober would be interesting if he ever came back lol.
