Silly season in the transfer market as long as your not from Leeds. Harry Kane £104m and in the last year of his contract. Liverpool paying £111m for a potentially good player yet said they couldn’t afford Bellingham? Then £111m player says don’t want to sign for the bin dippers ahaha, which then allows Chelsea to go for him and shaft Adams who has passed his medical but papers not signed. Rice to Arsenal for £100m, a young CB who nearly came to Leeds now signs for Man City in an £86m deal and Newcastle, WHU and Villa all involved in £70m/£80m deals. Man Utd spending huge chunks too and Chelsea need some action as they spent over £200m last season and have done the same again this season except when getting a cut price Adams who they will now renegotiate the deal to get it with timed payments rather than all up front. Chelsea getting their own back for the Raphinha fiasco. The prem is really powering away except if you are Burnley, Luton or Sheff Utd etc where the top price paid for a player is £14m
Yet another top player exerting his player power is Kylian Mbappe who PSG value at €200m and he is also into the last year of his contract but he wants to go to Real Madrid. PSG owners are demanding a huge fee which they can’t afford to pay and Mbappe says fine I will run down my contract and play in the reserves and then walk on a free next summer.
At the other end an unknown 18yo kid playing in the Swiss league was snapped up by Leeds for £4m. This kid now thinks he can refuse to play for his club and wants to force a move. The club should drop him from the squad and let him fester training alone. However I bet we end up cashing in on him.
Anyone remember the Orta interview that said his analytics department and scouting team always looked at potential players personality so that the player can fit in with the squad and be part of a focused group of happy ambitious players. Well how did that work out as all the players Orta signed have or are wanting to bail out on the club. Never known a more selfish couldn’t give a fook bunch of players and exactly the reason they were relegated. Not fit to wear the shirt. Huge failings from Orta and the more we see the worse it gets.
Leeds lose one of the Premier Leagues leading goal scorers for £5m due to a relegation clause in his contract and he too was in the last year of his contract. Amazing £200m, £100m, £5m Mbappe, Kane and Rodrigo.
So it’s on to Birmingham City now with a makeshift squad with some actually doing their best to impress FARKE. Some others not grabbing their chance when given it. So I expect some to go out on loan or be sold as soon as a new player comes in to replace them. Hoping we will use the loan market well this time for incoming players
This weeks conundrum is Cody Drameh. I have laid my cards on the table plenty of times. For me he is the best RB at the club and has had 2 successful seasons in the Championship. I can only assume FARKE wants him out as Byram and Aarons would have been ahead of him plus Ayling? Obviously Aaron’s never happened but if you were Drameh you would be wanting out. Now it could be that Drameh has refused to sign a new deal? His present deal ends next summer, he has always spoken his mind and he maybe disruptive if some stories are to be believed, but this is a problem we don’t need. His value is between £3.5m and £5m sell him or use him.
