    Well yes but it usually takes a period of time to familiarise yourself with the Bielsa method

    Seems to be the consensus from the scum fans in general chat. They liked him. Always worked his arse off, quick as ****, could carry the team the length of the pitch and then blast the ball in to row Z under no pressure. Its pretty much what I have seen so far too.

    Piece on the daily mail website saying that PSG are looking at signing Raphinia.
    If we are going to accept a big big for him in the summer I got to say I do hope he does abroad rather than to one of the prem teams. Easy to move on when he is abroad rather playing in our TVs every week

    Very much looks like Bogusz is forcing a reaction from the club as he said he hated last season on loan at Longres because they just defend whereas he loves it in Ibiza as they play football and keep the ball. He says he would like to stay in Spain……… this obviously forces a reaction from Leeds because he wanted to go back to Poland as Legia Warsaw wanted him for the Champions League. They offered to buy him outright or even loan him but Bielsa refused and sent him to Ibiza. He has been man of the match almost every game, has won player of the month twice and goal of the month 3 times. Fair to say he is playing well.

    Do we bring him back in January or does Bielsa think he couldnt replicate his form in the Prem? His agent is saying he thinks Leeds may let him go for a nominal fee but insist on a €7m buy back option and a significant % of any future sale.

    Straight forward question gentlemen!!
    Who is the more skilful and creative footballer, James Milner or Pablo Hernandez I think that has stopped the idle drivel of Milner coming back to LS11, let’s move on.

    That does not make business sense. Virtually give him away and then spend millions buying him back.

    No you miss the point. The buy back clause is in case he turns out to be a worldy, so we get first dabs and at only £7m. The main thing is the % of any sale which will be like we did with Huggins and Casey and have 30% sell on

    Agree about player exchanges - unless it was someone we were actually after.

    Made me think though - when was the last time we were involved in such a transaction (either way)?

    Presumably, this team assumes Bamford is still out injured (will he have a spell in the u23s first? I suspect not, personally).

    Suspect Cooper would be in instead of Struijk, although I'd be happy with either.

    Sorry, but not James. Although off form presently, there is far, far more chance of a goal or assist from Harrison. Indeed, on the showings so far (coupled with scum fans comments), I wonder: 'have we bought another Roberts'?

    Elland I reckon we deserve an end of season bash. Not bothered whwre we have it or how drunk some us will get. I have this vision of you organising a few little games and I think a 30 yard dash between WJ and Dan James will take a lot of cash in bets and raise cash. I also see a quiz between Wakey and Jamster on the history of wasted transfer fees. How about a tug of war between Leeds 60 and everyone else….. or pin the tail on the Harrogate fella

    I'd win! James clearly needs a team to carry him, so if it's a 1on1 race, I'd need to give him a piggy back, & his outstretched arms simply wouldn't beat my gut over the line! :D

    Tomas Brolin was massively misunderstood <whistle>

    Probably just needed a little extra training.

    Shaks and the dunking apple bin would be great if filled with cider. Guaranteed to see a few apples at the bottom of an empty 45gallon drum at the end.<laugh>
