Looks like a done deal, Leeds are signing Matt Mills til the end of the season. I wonder if Lesta will pay his wages for us . I must admit, since the introduction of Warnock, Bates is looking 20 years younger... please log in to view this image
He will have to improve his disciplinary record, and play the free flowing attractive football we are used to..... (on player manager)
I don't think it's a forgone conclusion that's Mills is going Leeds But if he does he is a solid defender who can't pass and has an ego and disapline problems
Morning Proud, Big disciplinary problem already at Leeds, he'll fit in nicely... We will have to show him how to get opposition players sent off. Fouling b****ards
You're welcome to him at least your goals against column will change....... For the worst. And as for his disciplinary record sent off twice this season already, and cost us the games v Hull and Birmingham. ps Watch out for his 40 yds cross field passes he is a master at them, trouble is they always end up with an opposing player.
One of the worst defenders in the league who also sticks the finger up at his own fans when things aren't going well for him ... Complete ****er
Good player I think and a good signing for Leeds I feel. He's solid enough and I think that his hefty price tag has maybe put an unfair weight of expectation on him. However, he distribution is frustrating to say the least - too often he ignores a simple pass and goes for Hollywood balls over the top. He also has discipline problems on and off the pitch. On it, he gets too many red cards and off it, his attitude must come into question and I dread to think what his reaction will be if you don't pick him As for us, I'm not too disappointed considering the player didn't want to and wasn't prepared to be part of a squad here and didn't have the right attitude. We also have three perfectly good Championship CB's anyway.
is it official as I can,t get my head roundthis surelyyou don,t le6t a rival have your best players even BATES wouldn,t do this would he!
He's a class centre half. By that I mean he wins every header, every tackle and puts his neck on the line. But he can't pass for ****. I mean, he has a pass completion record of about 10%. Utterly shocking for a 'footballing' side like us. He also has a massive ego. Can't lead a team. Can't keep his temper in check. There is a lot wrong with him so i'm pretty chuffed he's going tbh. SSL, Morgan and Bamba are all better players.
If he can 'win every header, every tackle and puts his neck on the line' that will do, then just hoof it upfield
Am I the only one who thinks we could get around these problems by: 1. Not making him captain, and 2. Telling him to pass it short.
Not yet But to be fair, when you said about it it was one guy who had only got two things right so far and this was before I had heard NP and MM had a row. You can see why I was skeptical. Right now I want him out ASAP.
I still think it will be a big mistake to send him to Leeds. Just keep him out of the squad for a couple of weeks and see if he can "do" a St. Ledger.
