Good Morning Everyone West Brom are reportedly after Pontus Jansson and Kumar Roofe. They have already snapped up former Leeds target Kyle Bartley for 3.5m, and to rub salt into the wound want to link him up with his former central defensive teammate. I would be in two minds over Roofe. The 25 year old scored 14 times last season, and seemed to be finding some form. Could a 7m offer persuade Radrizzani to let the former Oxford Utd player go? According to the article, both players are valued at 10m... Leeds development player Mallik Wilks has joined Doncaster Rovers on loan until January 2nd. Let's hope he gets first team football. According to the Mirror, Leeds have made contact with West Ham United about potentially signing Domingos Quina. The highly rated 18-year-old has struggled for games at the the Hammers. He has made just six first-team appearances for the London club, and is yet to make his Premiership debut! Another one for our under 23's? The Kodjia deal is looking more and more likely, and with Lonergan, Pennington, Lasogga, Grot, Wiedwald, Cibicki, Romario Vieira, Gomes, Denton,Wilks, Coyle and O'Connor off the payroll surely Leeds have freed up enough cash to make the 28 year old an attractive proposition!
Morning all... We were willing to sign Vydra for £11 million and value Roof at £10 million, it’s a crazy world. I assume we still have that £11 million in the bank, sell Roofe and use the £10m in wages for Hernandez and Vydra. If we fail on promotion and are short on funds or squeezed financially next season we can sell either one of them for £10m + There was talk and feeling that Rads was going to really go for it this season, in comes Bielsa and the signings just aren’t happening, very disappointing so far, maybe I’d built up the hopes more in my head than in reality. Like Elland pointed out, 12 off the payroll, surely we can bring in at least three decent signings on the wages saved.
Good Morning to Matt and co from a dujll Bardsey Well the England team went out with dignity and in Southgate a man who has grown immensely over the competition.I for one thought we had appointed another Wally but I have been proved wrong he was immense Who are we going to sign Roofe at 10m lets do it but invest it in some decent players Marriot is far better than Roofe so long as we don't get Jerry Can Dight G ayle at 9m would do along with a target man how much for Hughill £5m worth a punt We must keep Pontus he his worth far more than £10m and get Foyth to play alongside him I agree we could hardly buy Bartley as he was on 28k a week this would have caused mega problems Whats the latest Matt on Blackman and Hughill situation?
Morning ristac, we still have players like Sacko, Murphy and O'Kane who are apparently transfer listed, but with a dozen players off our books, lets make some signings.
Morning Mike. Leeds would only want Hugill on loan - less of a risk. Leeds are trying to convince Blackman to come to Leeds. The Chelsea shot stopper has quite a few options. I will feel a lot better once Foyth and a marquee signing take their medicals at Thorp Arch...
Morning all. Bartley hasn't actually signed for WBA yet, as far as I can see. There were always going to be bids for Jansson this window, we just need to see what his response is. Two main factors in play, one is that he hasn't met or trained with Bielsa yet. The other is that if he was looking for signs of real ambition from the club he may feel disappointed.
Good morning everyone. Now that we have lost interest in the WC attention switches back to LU, can someone bring me upto date on all our recent signings. Must have been 3or 4 that I have missed.
Morning Davy, Bartley let it be known that his preferred destination was ER, but it looks like Bielsa is not interested. On one hand, at least we have a plan and are trying to get the right players without being mugged in the process, but with our first pre season game less than a week away, we need to get our skates on.
Morning. Are we even linked with Foyth? Never seen anything mentioned by the journalists, only 60 talking about him on here and then only because of the so called Bielsa / Pochettino ‘friendship’.
Morning all. I am looking forward to seeing what progress Edmonson and Roberts have made. With regard to the England team my impression was that they are overhyped and overpaid.
In the second half the Croats decided to have a real go at us and we had no answer to all the hastle they gave us. Not enough shots on goal tippy tippy football does not work at this level. Key players went missing. We were out played.
Morning WCD, we needed to have gone 2-0 up in the first half - they would not have recovered. Too many players went missing in the second half including Kane.
Indeed we were, was always gonna be the case when we played a class nation. I fancied Croatia to do well from the start of the tournament, experience & class was the undoing of England, went as far we could achieve imo !
