Good Morning Everyone It seems Carpi president Stefano Bonacini is desperate to offload Jerry Mbakogu to Leeds Speaking to an Italian radio station, Bonacini said: "Mbakogu should go to Leeds. "He deserves a chance on an important stage – the second tier in England is not the Italian Serie B. "He is ready to have an adventure in England." According to the Scottish Sun, Leeds are in the hunt for Hibernian 23 yo midfielder John McGinn. Celtic and Rangers are also after his signature, which will almost definately push the price up. Hib want in the region of 5m, Leeds believe the fee should be half that. Villa, Leeds United and Rangers are all in the hunt for 21-year-old Harry Wilson. The winger was on loan at Hull last season. What does everyone think of Elland Road being turned into a boxing ring last weekend? Should we expect more of the same in the future? Is it good for the club / City? hypothetically, which of the following tqo players would you pick (if you could) to play for Leeds? Strachan or Speed?
Morning all and congratulations to Josh after that stunning performance. Warrier I have been saying for months that Jerry isnt good enough for Leeds utd, but why the hell, if true have we done a pre contract arrangement with Capri? Problem 1 he has spent most of the season out with a knee injury, alarm bells. Problem 2 he doesnt score many goals in a bad Italian league and has never scored a lot of goals anywhere he's been. So he sounds like a slow Ekuban. If however he was king of assists then great but he doesnt create any and think he has 1 assist all season. We have to stp looking at Poundland and look at top players if we are to do anything. The Scottish kid sounds like a decent player, but Scottish Prem is hardly Championship standard, however if he has some steel as well as skill maybe worth a punt. We are however up against rangers this Summer for any talent because Gerrard is scouring the EFL rebuilding the Rangers squad to compete with Celtic this coming season. They are chasing Hernandez too and young Whyte from Crusaders. After our useless performance in front of goal this season (Roofe not inc) I see the Duke has been getting rave reviews in Turkey after he was brought in to replace Eto and scored and created plenty. One guy we should never allowed to leave was Antonnuci whose 2 goals yesterday in Seria A against Sampdoria kept his team in the top tier. The season he left and went to Seia B with SPAL he scored 18 goals and winning promotion to Seria A and they were expected to drop this season but his goals, assists and general play have kept them in the top flight, he scored 11 against top Italian defenders Prijavic story wont go away http://www.insidefutbol.com/2018/05...ted-linked-star-to-fund-defender-deal/376121/
Hola. Can't stay long. Meetings most of the day.. Watched the fight in a bar. Pleased Shaks must have had a great night. The ring walk sounded awesome. Taught 100 locals the words to marching on together and the Leeds salute. It's fecking hot. Might be back home on Saturday as things seem ok here. Fecking French air traffic controllers on strike causing some issues. The ****ers work less days than shaks.
Did anyone else pick up the twitter meltdown yesterday with Jordan Stevens? Funny as hell and for those who dont know him, he's the kid we signed from Forest Green Rovers for the U23s. Somebody hacked his Instagram account and pretended to be him. It said he's had enough of football and jacking it all in because he could earn more elsewhere. He said he loved football all his life until he joined Leeds and then went on to tell his long term girlfriend Sarah that he might as well kill 2 birds and bin her at the same time. He told her he had slept around and cheated on her every other day and she was a mug ..... Its like having Chippy running your PR
That's a shame Morning all Is the Hernandez Mk II a hoax or are we really going to get him ?. I think Harry Wison would be a great loanee and a Strachan (Player) in his prime would be perfect for us
Morning Doc, I too have been keeping a close eye on Antenucci. He scored twice yesterday, albeit once from the penalty spot. He has scored 11 this season, with 7 assists. I would say that Serie A must be a step up from the Championship though.
Good morning from zakynthos and its scorchio already.really want to see some intent to improve the squad.better class or dont bother and use what we have. Apart from that it will soon be beer oclock.im solo on this one but already met people i know and our davy is coming on weds.
Seria A is on a par with our premier league so Mirco has done fantastic again since going home. He wasnt offered a new deal because his contract gave him a pay rise. Stupidity on our behalf because he and Berardi were the 2 Italians who gave everything every time they pulled on a shirt. Mirco has been a cult figure everywhere hes been because he wears it on his sleeve. The Jerry guy is from the Italian 2nd Division which is on a par with League 1 here
No to Jerry we already have Ekuban, who's not good enough either. Hibs asking £5m Leeds saying only worth half that, same **** different faces. The more ER is used for other events the better as long as the revenue goes into the team, was about the only thing I think I was ever in agreement with Bates about. Steachan
Antenucci was dropped a couple of times from the starting line up for a sustained period of time. I wonder whether there was a discipline problem.
