Latest news. I was late up this morning so had to do my 4 mile run in full sun. Jumped in the Mediterranean to cool off for 5 minutes though. Been down the water slides with my son. Read my book on Commanche Indians for a bit but I've had to put me brolly up now as it's too hot again and it's nearly lunch time so I've got to fit another meal in somehow. Hope the weather is nice back home. I'm not one of those idiots that hopes its raining. Regards, please log in to view this image
So what we are experiencing now is what the 49ers meant by being aggressive in the transfer market? And I, in my delusion, thought they meant players in, not out But they are professional business men, at least they claim to be, so hopefully they know what they are doing And Paraag is a top contract negotiator, as he says, so this is probably going well, you'll see. We will win the Premier league, the championsleague and the world cup
Fantastic point Matt ... there's no doubt we have extremely talented youngsters in our Academy, and a few of them will definitely do a job for us in the Championship ... the problem is will the manager trust them? Marsch, Gracia and Allardyce all shunned the youngsters ... fk man, even Gnonto struggled to get a run in the team because he was considered "too young" ... I'm hoping Farke starts blooding these lads, because they're good enough ...Bate is a superb passer of the ball, Perkins has this ability to pull defenders out of shape and drift into the box late to create danger ... Kris Moore is a belter of a player and will be better than Cresswell ... Joseph is a proper talent who's starting to bulk up and and will become a goalscorer ... Gyabi has the tools as well Then there's Drameh who has done everything to prove himself at this level, and for me should be first choice right-back, but Farke going after Aarons certainly sent the wrong message to the lad ... if we don't use Drameh, who had a superb loan at promotion winning Luton, then there's a problem in our club that needs sorting ... we can't ignore the talent Players like Gelhardt don't suddenly become bad ... we know the talent's there, the manager just needs to use the talent, work hard with them and improve them ... strong foundation, make it count
You’d have to wonder if all the billionaire investors in Leeds are happy with summer performance so far. At this they’ll see a minimal return on their investment
I don't know but you will be there to give them your disgust. You must jump down from your lofty perch and wade into the south stand and give them forty lashes of your tongue.
Good point, and I'm sure they're in contact with at least ten potential targets ... thing is, it all comes down to the players actually wanting to join the project at Leeds under Farke ... if they don't think the squad will be up at the top end this season, they won't come ... our slow start won't help to sell the project, so results need to start coming quickly This window is not going to be easy, but things can work out if the team starts winning and we become more attractive ... right now if a players has a choice between Leeds, Saints and Leicester, we know he won't choose Leeds ... not sure how 49ers overcome this, as the Aarons fiasco showed
I have seem more aggression from a pacifist than paddy marathe and his band of yankee doodle dandys. Ken Bates spent more than this bunch.
Yep, then there's this pressure as well ... if the poor performances continue, expect Paraag to get investors in his ear demanding more
I am of the belief, no evidence of course that signings are unduly over implicated with us due to the ownership structure. How many of the big 11 have to give the green light for a signing. Is it a majority or unanimous decision required and how long does it take such agreement
