    It seems every club wants our players at the moment with palace trying to get kisnorbo, fulham and west ham trying to get gradel, norwich trying to get snoddy... but hey at least we have brought Rachubka...

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...-Leeds-3m-rated-striker-Luciano-Becchio.html?

    Anyway, it seems they are offering 3m for him according the sun and the daily star which i know doesnt neccessarily mean anything but it would be nice if we were trying to bring some players in rather than trying to not let any go

    He was our one true great striker again last season....

    In fact for he he was the best in the promotion season a bit of a unsung hero... worked his socks off and laid so many on for Beckford.

    A great traditional CF ...reminds me of Chapman but Becchio can run :)

    I know every palyer has a price but i dont think Larry is that stupid to sell him.

    i think Snoddy will stay still think max will go :( and im still sure a few rabbits to come out of the hat....
    But i dont get why we are waiting surely better to have a settled squad and get your players in early pre-season?

    like to think a

    yea hopefully but im a little worried that grayson might accept a bid of 3m for becchio, i wouldnt say he was our best player in the promotion season but definately one of. i was actually one of the ones that thought he might not be able to make the step up to the championship but how he proved me wrong, he has just been fantastic since joining leeds and i definately dont want im to go

    This one is now up to Becchio, the bid will be accepted and he will be presurised to move on.

    Nah, Becchio signed a new contract in January. Even if Swansea have interest, I doubt they'll follow it up with a bid.

    And will people stop believing ****ty rumours written in the Sun and the Daily Mail!

    To be fair the Mail reported Leicester were in for Kasper before anyone else had an inkling so there could be something in it though I don't think Becchio will be going anywhere. In fact I don't think we'll lose any more players before the season starts.

    Its a positive that our players are wanted by other clubs.

    Then why would he spend £7m (and more soon) on an East Stand extension which he knows won't make him any money whatsoever? He's not in it for the money. There, I said it.

    And do Swansea not have Graham and Dobbie already as well as the options to get Borini back and also this new guy Soriano they're interested in? I seriously doubt they're after Becchio too.

    Borini is with parma, hope we can get him back, but if this is true i'd be surprised to be honest, but then if the player has any ambition he would to come and make the step up for a better club ;) and when we take gradel off your hands as well, it will pay for your extension , its funny that £7m figure for your extension, we got a £7m rated player you can have for the two players who no longer want to play for your club :emoticon-0116-evilg Pintado will do a job of two people for you lol

    Make the step up to a better club? I thought it was just Swansea in for him-is someone else after him then?

    Swansea - Premier League

    Need I say anymore? he will be good cover for our players though, a good bench warmer ;)

    He signed a new 3 and a 1/2 year contract in January, so I'd think again. If Bates was just going to sell our players off like that we'd have accepted the £3.5m for Snoddy.

    3 million isn't enough to get him, he has 3 years left on his freshly signed contract. And piss off Jager noone cares about your crappy little tin pot club.

    Doesn't make you a better club though Jager. The fact you have smaller attendances,a smaller fan base,a smaller ground,less history,less honours & a smaller away following makes you an inferior club,albeit it a better team at this moment in time.

    Just because you've now started copying the famous all-white strip of the mighty Leeds United doesn't make you a bigger club.
