CONTRACT SIGNED! At long last after a unnecessary wait it's done. Gaetano Berardi signs 6 month contract with FC Sion after a trial. Great news.
His contract is finished at the end of the season so they get nothing for him however well he plays. They were trying to have Newcastle over by asking for 12 million if they stay up.

Not in my wildest dreams did I believe we would exit the January window with less players and not a single signing. Tomlinson from Sky Sports has said it is a disgrace that the Leeds board haven't backed Bielsa and once again Leeds put all their eggs in one basket.
The thing is and what those reporters don’t understand. Is that it is Bielsa not the board that don’t want any players in, especially I Jan
I agree it’s not great we haven’t signed anyone or strengthened but I’m not sure these signings for the teams around us will save them. Like Van De Beek and Ali who can’t start for their current teams, would they really improve us? Lingard possibly but not for 12m and all his wages. We’ve been stupid with cash before and we’ve got to be sensible and play the long game. We’ve got the joint best form in the bottom 8 teams, we have a style and an amazing coach. We also battered Newcastle and the game should’ve been dead and buried in the first half so we are capable and better than the teams around us. As long as we do survive we’d have saved our money and be able to invest better in the summer than this window. Let’s keep positive people!
Very poor from the club. I'd understand if we had beat Newcastle and we had increased that gap. I'd even understand if Phillips, Bamford and Forshaw were certainties for a return next game. I'd understand a little bit if covid cases were pretty low. With the squad not performing, the injuries to key players, the youngsters getting frustrated, the loss of form of some players, the age of some of the players and surely just increasing ****ing numbers so we don't have to get kids out of school (Archie Gray) on a weeknight to sit on the bench. Surely it's pure negligence on the boards part at this point. Argentina International midfielder Lo Celso has gone from Spurs to Villareal until the end of the season. Would have been perfect. Ramsey ended up at ****ing Rangers. That skint club that plays pub football. Would have done us for 3 months. Still, at least we held on to Rodrigo, Klich, Roberts and Co who have underperformed all season when fit. I'm frustrated. If we go down it could end up costing another 16 years.
I'm angry we have got nobody in. On the other hand I also feel we have enough to stay up as we are. The main reason I'm frustrated is that it's Leeds! It's written in the stars that Phillips, Bamford, Forshaw don't recover quickly. Raphinha will get injured. We'll get suspensions and end up going down with a whimper. We'll sit there and moan about the lack of January activity. Hopefully you will be very smug in May saying 'I told you so'. With Leeds....the worst always seems to happen.
Can't say more than has already been said, just hugely disappointed that the club is gambling with our future to the degree they are. To me it raises more questions about the coming summer in regard to management and ownership and what those may be.
Yeah but if the club said we played in white you'd be straight on here giving it "actually if you look closer it's more 'Arctic fox' than white!"

Liverpool are signing the youngster Carvalho from Fulham. 7 million. He's a real prospect. That's an absolute snip. I can't believe he's gone that cheap.
