    Good Morning Everyone

    Mateusz Bogusz will finally complete his transfer to Leeds later on today.

    He flew over to England over the weekend and is due to undertake his medical at Thorp Arch this afternoon.

    The Polish midfielder has been of interest to the Championship club for a while, and last week his club Ruch Chorzów announced that they’d received an offer from Leeds and the formalities of a transfer were ongoing.




    According to The Sun, Leeds are lining up a loan for Wolves winger Cavaleiro.

    The Portuguese International grabbed nine goals and 12 assists last season to help Santo's side reach the Prem.

    Does this mean Leeds have conceded over Swansea winger Daniel James or are Leeds just keeping their options open?




    Another player Leeds are being strongly linked with over the weekend is Norwegian international Stefan Johansen.

    Johansen scored eight and set up nine in helping the Cottagers to promotion last term.

    He would certainly be a good replacement for Saiz, if Leeds can agree terms with Fulham.

    Do Leeds have enough coffers in the bank to get these deals over the line without losing any prized assets?




    If you were the owner of Leeds, and an up front offer of 20m came in today for Jack Clarke, what would you say?



    A win is a win, especially when you come from behind yet again, but with so many players off form, how much do they need to improve to at least keep the three point gap against Norwich at the weekend?

    If Douglas is fit to start on Saturday, it will only be the 5th time this season that Ayling, Cooper, Jannson and Douglas have all started together!

    Morning all...

    The Cavaleiro link could be the club calling Swansea’s bluff that our top bid is already on the table and it really is a take it or leave it offer. The young Polish guy sounds one for the future but it would be nice to get another “one for now”.

    With Douglas fit it is a nice selection headache for Bielsa, he won’t leave Phillips out so if Pablo is fit who will be dropped? I know someone suggested Pablo back wide right, drop Clarke and Forshaw or Klich at 10 but Bielsa seems to feel Roberts is our back up 10 so it will be interesting.

    No to Clarke, not until our season has finished and we know where we are playing next season.

    Good morning Matt & all

    I assume this Polish kid is one for the future & not our main signing in an effort to reach the prem

    These are the type of signings we should be making

    Can't see it as I've heard of these two players, both have qualities which would improve our squad, problem is they would cost some dosh

    Norwich will be a different game, I suspect the canaries will be more open like Derby were, they'll be looking to go win the game
    I believe we need to go back to a similar team that has won us many games during this season to get some rhythm & fluency again so I would go with :

    Casilla
    Pontus Cooper
    Ayling Phillips Douglas
    Hernandez Klich Alioski
    Roberts
    Roofe

    Morning all

    Regarding Stefan, it is rumoured that AC Milan and Fenerbac are interested in him and some is calling for Celtic to snap him up.
    But think he would be a good shout if we could get him.

    Mateusz Bohusz sound like good young player and one for the future.

    Morning All, 20 mil for anyone in the 1st team at this stage in the window would have to be a no, how could they be replaced in 4 days ? and so our season could be destroyed.

    Good Morning to Matt and co from a sunny Bardsey
    Well with less than 4 days to the end of the window things should be well and truly in place so that we can maintain this slight lead
    I hope James who played in the second half on Sat on the right wing making an assist signs I really like this lad
    What time does the window close?
    If someone offered £20m for Clarke I would take it but they won't
    I was very pleased for Kiko making that great save on Sat I feel we have someone dependable in goal now
    Calverlero is a staking horse we want James
    Finally I wish Bogusz are happy time at Leeds it must be daunting for the lad coming to this big club no doubt Klitch will look after him

    Morning all <ok>

    One story going under the radar is that Spanish International winger Susaeta is out of contract in the Summer and just refused a deal. He was Bielsa's winger at Athletico Bilaboa where he played 109 games scoring 24 goals and 24 assists for Bielsa and was part of the team that had Alex Ferguson wetting his pants when Scum were completely outplayed ad Destroyed in the Champions League. Is it possible? well hes also a mate of Kiko too so its possible and will be cheap too.

    The Polish kid according to Phil Hay is so highly thought of that he could play a big role near the end of the season. Yes he will be looked after by Klich and Miazek and his bird is fit as I saw her at the airport yesterday :emoticon-0135-makeu

    Not been easy this season because we forget about Dallas who is a bit part player anyway for me and hardly been available at all. Berardi has been out for ages and Douglas has been out a couple of times too. The joke that is Brown needs to shine for us soon and worst of all for me has been Bamford as we need our main striker but not had him all season and still not ready ffs

    As much as i was his critic at start of season where would we be without Alioski. Doubt we would be top of the league. Maybe douglas will be on the bench till second half. Bielsa likes to reward a winning side.
    Said a couple of weeks back that roberts looked lively and quicker than some we have. Norwich score a lot of late goals so we need to get at them late on and push them back.

    Bamford should be back for the U23s next week so hopefully he can be fit for the first team. Dallas will now be sold in the Summer and we may even see some fringe academy players leave the club before Thursday.
