    r.e. Nketiah. He is a proper striker in the Ian Wright mould. Most impressive thing is how he puts himself about and works hard. Add to that the fact can take on defenders and cause them real problems, I think he could really do a job for you.

    Like I said earlier, every time Ive seen him Ive been impressed. I wanted him to stay with the first team this season and get a chance, but this move under Bielsa could really improve him.

    So long as we get either Kent or Nketiah I don't care. Just get one across the line! We need every swinging dick we can get with our current squad!

    I just watched the highlights and Ian Wright sprung to mind immediately. :emoticon-0103-cool:

    If he can be anywhere near that level then Arsenal and hopefully us have a star!

    No chance of you selling him then in the next year?

    I hope not. Hes one of the youngsters I tip to actually have a career at Arsenal.

    But who knows, stranger things have happened.

    Sounds like a good player but I’d rather we get someone who we at least have a chance of signing at the end of the season. If this guy’s as good as you say he is what’s the point of Bielsa improving him even more just to hand him back to Arsenal?

    Just my opinion :emoticon-0111-blush

    25 goals for Leeds would be a good point

    Nketiah could be a good omen for us.

    Did Wolves not get Afobe from Arsenal and he was pretty good on his day.

    25 goals from a Leeds player, or at least a potential Leeds player, would be better.

    We get him on loan, his goals help us get promoted, he decides to stay rather sit behind aubamayang,, lacazette and the new lad from France. Still let’s see if we get him first.

    Just watched the video of this Arsenal player. Such a lot of composure for such a young guy and more importantly is something between the ears as well. Sign him up quick!

    I’d rather we sign Colidio from Inter Milan tbh. At least he’d belong to Leeds from the off, and his improvement over the course of the season working with Bielsa would be to the benefit of Leeds, not some other club.

    Nketiah is supposed to be having a medical at Bristol City this evening, but so far hasn't turned up - is he somewhere else instead ?

    NB - Only rumours, but Bristol City think Leeds have offered more than their £3M for a season long loan.

    Football has gone mad when this type deal happens - £3M for 1 season - seriously wtf !!!!

    Maybe you’re right but I’ve had my fill of untried Italian signings.
