    Let's assume that Dennis is a replacement for Rodders. It looks like that both Joffy and Barndoor are on the way out. I know that this is just rehashed from a couple of weeks ago but with Sory and Poulson being linked to us in the last few days there might be some movement happening especially as Bamford has supposedly been shown the door.

    Why would you presume Dennis is Rodders replacement? There's no concrete evidence we've ever been in for Dennis.

    I have a zero out of two success rate with the rumours I have posted. To be fair, I shouldn’t really expect better because I made them both up rather than rifling round the internet to see what other people had made up.

    This got me thinking, maybe we could make a success rate league table? <whistle>

    It's hard to get excited about a 32 year old career back up keeper. But hey we've been linked with him every window for 5 years or so... maybe this means we'll also finally get Ryan Kent and Che Adams?

    If Darlow comes I’m still bored as nothing happening. Better news would be a really good striker coming in along with a really good midfielder. Talk of Cresswell turning down a new contract as 2 prem clubs want him….. guessing this is all about getting real game time guarantees….. so far it looks like we are even worse than we were with Orta

    Sell Cresswell if he wants to sit on a PL club’s bench. A player who was average at Millwall, and kept out of the starting eleven when their best CB was fit, should not be guaranteed a starting place for Leeds.

    So if this story is true he can **** off.

    And all this talk about needing a striker and midfielder overlooks the fact we urgently need a quality left back - we haven’t had one for years.

    Hopefully during his 10 years of benchwarming he’s paid enough attention to work out where the goal posts are. If he has, he’s an upgrade.

    Agreed on all points. Farke likes a wing back… we should be chasing Ryan Giles - he’s meant to be going to Luton ffs. I know they’re in the prem (for a season) but it’s going to be hard for a full back to look good there.

    Darlow getting more traction especially with the Caprile money coming in.

    He did well with Hull last year but other than that short spell I haven't seen him play for years.

    I was looking through the Hull forum when we first went down, they were hopeful of getting him on loan again, they seemed to all agree he was a decent keeper. I’d prefer him over the German guy, we’re obviously looking to bring one in so if we get him and Wober goes on loan as expected, it leaves us just one more international exit permitted on loan. If that is Meslier then we can only loan to UK teams seriously limiting Adams options when fit

    No loan clause in Meslier contract so he will be sold. No loan clause in Gnonto contract as he was last minute, not ready, so agreement reached in principle months before it happened. If he goes it’s for cash

    that’s because he hasn’t really played in years bud. Ended up a career benchwarmer. Was main keeper in Newcastle’s promotion year, and had a decent spell of time in one other season. Other than that, he’s largely been the forgotten man. Doesn’t mean he isn’t up to it. It’s how it goes for keepers sometimes. Some accept it and take the money, some don’t.

    Ampadu and Darlow both turned down Prem clubs to come to Leeds, so for me they get a lot of merit. Lets see how many more come
