    I never told you to shut up <ok>

    Day one I was underwhelmed by Farke, then we were linked with Gerrard and a few others, I looked at our squad and felt anyone with half an ounce of knowledge can get this team promoted. I also soon realised we were in no position to attract much better.

    I was impressed with his handling of the loan situation and Gnonto, I was super impressed with our run at the turn of the new year (wasn’t that far back we used to fall to pieces over the festive period).

    It was only the final quarter that his weakness showed, I think we’d still struggle to find a better coach at the moment, he also has a season with the players under his belt so the only option seems to be stick.

    I’m disappointed in the Gray sale but he’s a hot prospect he’s not going to be a game changer just yet. Gnonto fell apart at the end of the season, his head isn’t here, Summerville is a one trick pony, prevent him from cutting in and he’s done for. He’s not even any good at free kicks or corners, if we get offered £40m take it.

    Meslier, there were more better keepers than worse than him last season, he definitely needs replacing.

    Totally agree with all this and Gray has not gone according to the evening post which is just a click bait paper now.

    Why would Gray go to Brentford. Spurs/chelsea/Liverpool /man city/man utd i would have believed but not Brentford. Even Brighton would be better than them.

    Jeez what's with all the angst with young gray, he's a prospect at the moment nothing more we've sold better players in the past and carried on, every supporter of every club could point to a player that they didn't want to go blah,blah we are a club that has had a fair share of success and a shed load of near misses that should have, could have swelled the trophy cabinet but bizarrely we have been mostly run like a syndicate of sleazeballs from pot less Arabs to unhinged Italians whilst citeh went from second club in Manchester to ruling the roost with the proper meaning of a sheikh with oil money running out of every pore....but we are the kings of comic tragedy and that is something that no one will take away from us without a bloody nose :emoticon-0146-punch....come on we all know we'll be moaning, cheering, crying, laughing, from the first whistle come kick off, its what footy fans do and we are without doubt at the top table in that :emoticon-0148-yes:....MOT

    YEP and other sources (could all be click bait) saying we’ve done a u- turn on the Archie to Brentford deal (Chelsea and Spurs interested)?

    I'm starting a rumour ofmy own. Gray joins man city for an undisclosed fee with mr leeds coming back on loan with no fee. Remember you heard it here first.

    Id like to see Archie to Spuds £30-35m plus Rodon. Then sweetning the deal by giving us Skipp on loan.

    Personally, I think he's 2 years away from being a PL player.
    Spurs would just sit him on the bench most games I'd think, they'd be better off loaning him back to us for 1 season, but they'll think he'd be better off learning from their coaches and being around better players.

    Who cares just take the money and a player or two coming our way. Archie is only an injury away to being a crock. He needs to be sold it's the best for leeds and him.

    He will be paid enough to make him rich.

    That didn’t happen for Jack Clarke. You can make the jump up too soon.

    This is where we see what the 49ers are made of setting the price and how they use it going forward.

    Clarke has done very well for himself and his bank account. Players now put that first and i would have him back at Leeds now.

    Exactly this!

    This is their first full summer window. Give them a chance.

    If and when the big players move on it will all be judged on replacements and what funding is made available to Farke.

    Interesting few weeks coming up. I know nothing of spurs players so have no idea who we could rob them of. Norwich did it to us all too often well it's our turn now.
