    Hear that Mighty.

    20 million......

    You could sell the entire Millwall squad for that and still have 20m left. <nahnah>

    Why Leeds missed out on deadline day move for £25,000-per-week Manchester City man

    please log in to view this image


    Leeds United had a relatively good winter transfer window deadline day, finally strengthening the attack with the capture of West Brom’s Tyler Roberts, and holding on to backup goalie Andy Lonergan.

    However, despite injuries to Matthew Pennington and Conor Shaughnessy leaving the defence thin, a crucial centre-back additional wasn’t made.

    It has emerged that Leeds were keen on making a late loan move to bring Manchester City’s Tosin Adarabioyo to Elland Road before Wednesday’s ultimatum elapsed.

    The Premier League runaway table leaders put the 20-year-old up for loan having already secured the £57million signing of French centre-back Aymeric Laporte.

    However, nothing concrete was forthcoming from suitors, and by the time Leeds approached, a deal was impossible as Adarabioyo had been included in the matchday squad to face West Brom.

    While the youngster, who currently earns £25,000 per week, wouldn’t have been a starting XI signing for Leeds, he would have at least been a perfect backup signing.

    With Pennington set to return to action by weekend, and Gaeteno Berardi’s ability to play in the heart of the defence, missing out on the Manchester City starlet can’t be considered a big blow.

    Fair to say Ian Harte isn’t happy about the under 23’s... #lufc

    With what Ian Harte just said - anyone watching the stream can hear language is a barrier in that team. But the Spanish lads etc are all having lessons. Disappointing the management don’t help the situation at all though.

    Stevens, Dalby, Edmondson, Hosannah and Roberts have come in as well, so let's not pretend that this us some kind of invasion. This Brexity crap is pervading into everything. Love and respect Ian Harte but this is unhelpful and unwelcome #lufc https://twitter.com/ianharte23/status/959472030813999104 …

    If Tyler Denton had started would Ian Harte feel the same way?

    Is Harte speaking as an ex player or as an agent whose players aren't getting sufficient game time in the academy?? #lufc

    Also Ian Harte is from Drogheda, I think I'd find it easier to understand someone speaking Spanish than someone from Drogheda

    Not sure about Ian Harte’s tweets me. Can’t remember him offering thoughts like these when we were top of the league or when he was getting invited to legends games... Not saying I disagree btw just seems a bit strange #lufc

    Amazing, despite his performances for the club and he still identifies with Leeds, some fans there dont believe hes allowed voice an opinion. Hes only saying what many suspected anyway

    Doesn’t he represent one of the lads on the senior team. Was talking a few months back about how proud he was. Why doesn’t club make a statement to explain the idea behind the recruitment of so many foreign youngsters

    Read somewhere before,its the same policy as Man city and Chelsea use,does make FFP easier apparently but with the added advantage of being the 2best youth teams in the country.

    Difference being Chelsea or City don’t care if none of theirs make it and none of them likely to ever play first team football with them

    25 grand a week and he hasn't made the 1st team yet. No wonder players like him and CBJ don't want the hard graft of the championship. He'll be a millionaire by the time city realise he's not good enough for them ffs

    What sort of policy sends 50 kids out on loan from both those clubs? Yes beats the fFP rules but we need our own kids. The very best kids from Yorkshire again. Dont care what anyone says as there are way too many overseas players and few will get a chance of first team football. Some say wait a few years, but in 3 years most of them will be 25 compared to Roberts at 19 in the first team now. If they are not good enough ........... yes some develop late but not 25 U23s

    Surely, we need the best coaches then.

    Carlos Corberan? He's hardly a household name...
