Hope you're right about the youth coming through. Whilst we've had decent full backs and a couple of defensive midfielders make the grade when was the last time we had a flair player come through the ranks ? Strikers and pacy wingers are the most sort after and expensive in football and the last one I can think of who was class would be Arron Lennon.
Think the continental kids being sourced at present are intended to be the bedrock for years to come. Homegrown flair players are fewer generally - only Championship example I can think of off the top of my head is Will Hughes at Derby, though there must be others.
Wilfried Zaha? Patrick Roberts Oliver Burke Jacob Murphy Nathan Redmond Demerai Gray Theres actually quite a few, we just don't think about them cos they aint from Leeds
Del Fabrio, one that got away imo Doc. There were big things being said about him before he come to leeds, I mentioned the asset Del would be for Leeds, but many didn't agree with me, I think it was the name calling that give it away
Dario Del Fabro did seem like he'd be exciting but he's 22 now and played about 15 professional games. Have no idea why Juventus would sign him when no other clubs seem willing to play him.
Did you get exactly the seat you wanted following the scandal when you were denied a proportion of your priority booking time for the all important Oxford time? I only ask because I can get you a freebie x20 in any open stand if you arnt happy with your current seat.
Maybe they see the skills he possesses, he had a bad run with us, Redders for one, but he got an injury which didn't give the fans enough opportunities to see his full potential. He did get good reviews when he played against Sunderland though. Could also be similar reasons to why we occasionally sign players that no other teams make a beeline for......
very kind of you but i'm fine just hope you get rid of the othernineteen.where are you sitting tomorrow.
I am not going.... Driving the youngest to scumland airport. I just dont see what the rest of you do.... And I have no enthusiasm for the club ATM.
Don't fall for it Wakey, it's one of those corporate tickets that stops the working man watching football
Chipster, there was never a chance in hell that you were going. Therefore could you please refrain from extracting minor satisfaction by leading some of our less astute posters by the reigns. Have to admit though, you nearly got your hands bitten off with that cast so begrudging credit where it's due.
