That's a strange way of looking at things. Players can improve, managers can change who have different perspectives, injuries can happen, there are countless reasons why a player can end up being a good fit for a club when he wasn't previously.
He was good enough to be in Leeds starting line up in the championship but he wasn't getting played .
Was he good enough? Think he's had the best spell of his entire career over the last 12 months. A lot of Leeds fans are pushing for them to get him back though given he's performing better than Aaronsen.
There was a guy posting about Turkish betting scandal here, I waited until it reaches prosecutors, basically today, since you can never trust football federation. First of all, nothing related to Acun. After clearing that up, difference between federation and prosecutor is, federation just put names out, stating that these people have bet accounts, but problem in Turkey national identity numbers stolen 10+ times in last 5 years, so you can open an account on behalf of someone easily, which is what happened to 2 Besiktas players. Also having a betting account is not illegal in Turkey, you can bet for horse races etc. moreover it was even encouraged by federation when they had sponsorship and sold broadcast rights of lower leagues to betting sites, so it was the only way to watch games legal way, having a betting account. So as of today, prosecutor did first arrests (real findings with guilt which means they either betted for a game they are involved or something like that), highlights are: Metehan Baltaci, from Galatasaray, bet for his own team (Eyupspor) when he was on loan at Eyupspor Mert Hakan Yandas, captain of Fenerbahce, bet via 3rd party (no announcement about who he bet for) Ersin Dikmen, Fenerbahce congress member, bet on behalf of Mert Hakan Yandas Murat Sancak, Adana Demirspor owner/president, (where Balotelli played) Metin Korkmaz, Adana Demirspor deputy president Emrah Celik, Antalyaspor vice president Alessane Ndao, Konyaspor (weird that he signed up with his foreign registration number) Abdulsamet Burak, Kayserispor Salih malkoçoğlu, Trabzonspor Ugur kaan Yildiz, Goztepe Yusuf Ozdemir, Alanyaspor Yucel Gurol, Adan Demirspor Zorbay Kucuk, Fifa referee Ahmet Cakar and his wife, former Fifa referee in 90s, current famous pundit 46 people in total rest is related to lower leagues. In previous wave, Eyupspor owner Murat Ozkaya was arrested. Funny note: Adana Demirspor owner and deputy president removed their team from field against Galatasaray blaming others for match-fixing and eventually causing a walkover.
A 'lot of Leeds fans' where? I was sat with four in York last week in a pub. Big headed bastards, they said Geldhart is ok for Hull ( me) but not good enough for Leeds. Not premier league quality and so on. Tidy little player, but not good enough they mockingly all agreed. I replied the entire Leeds full squad is not premier league quality, supped up and left.
