Good Morning Everyone It has been revealed that Leeds had an agreement with Swansea back in April to bring Kyle Bartley back to Elland Road on another season long loan. However, due to their relegation, the Swans decided it would make no sense to lend one of their first team players to a rival club. A perminent transfer has been agreed between the two clubs just shy of 4m. Antonssen could be the first senior Leeds player on his way out of Elland Road this Summer. The 27 year old who has scored 8 goals in 34 appearance whilst on loan at Blackburn last season, is surplus to requirements. Swedish outfits Hammarby and Malmö are both interested in the striker but his £15,750 weekly wages could be an issue. Over 60k a month for Antonssen's wages!!!! Lasogga has committed himself to his parent club Hamburg. “I am a HSV player and I have another year on my contract,” Lasogga told German newspaper Bild. “That is why I currently assume that I will be in Hamburg for the start of training.” Apparently it's got nothing to do with his 3.5m wages!!! Leeds are weighing up a 6m offer for West Brom's winger James McClean. The 29-year-old Republic of Ireland international consistently refuses to wear a poppy on his shirt for the annual Remembrance Day commemorations. Which player would you rather have back at Elland Road? Howson or Snodgrass?
Good morning surely bartley is due rigorous fitness testing first.anyone who refuses to honour the fallen who had no choice but to fight is not for me. No howson or snodgrass for me younger and faster should be our aim.
Morning all McClean would split the dressing room as well as fans just like he did at Sunderland and then WBA. Snodds is back on the market because he aint good enough for the Prem and that's no slight on him as he was great for us and he has been great everywhere he's been but cant cut it in the Prem, so not for me. Howson did nothing wrong in the prem but in fairness he wont ever be more than a lower Prem player. He's a Leeds born and bred player and his family are season ticket holders. He would be a great addition but cant see him being made available. Bartley deal looks like its happening and the internet got broken last night when Ayling's GF posted the photo on Instagram. Remember Bartley & wife moved in with Ayling and Poppy.... Stories going round last night that Hecky is going back to Barnsley, the Ruben De La Berrera story looks like fake news
Morning Wakey, Leeds medical staff would have access to Bartley's medical records. He will of course have to undergo a specialist medical at TA.
The main rumors are about Steve Bruce but I heard him interviewed after the final and it was all about rebuilding for next season. He was going to lose half his squad as they were either loanees or out of contract and accepted that Grealish and Terry would be gone. Plenty though now saying he has been told to slash the wage bill and offload which means he will be back in the Hull scenario where he just walked out. yes he has won promotion 5 times but he always likes to spend big money and I dont think we have big money. Ranieri in Leeds, which I havent really seen anywhere other than the prat who posted the selfie on a plane he says was going to Leeds. I think news will start breaking this week concerning the manager and a couple of players. The 10 day story I posted recently comes up this Friday?
Morning 2pennth, we've been linked with the Manager of our Italian counterpart at Culture Club. He looks like he's escaped from a 90's boy band? please log in to view this image
Morning all, I'm hoping rumours start becoming reality now that June is nearly here, Friday 1st June, this sort of fits in with Docs 10 day comment above
Good Morning to Matt and co from a dull Bardsey They wouldn't dare bring in an unknown manager again my monies on an English one this time I am not happy about Darlow either he has had a tendency to let in silly goals Hope Doc is right about Friday when we should have a clearer picture about where we are going and in what directionI have great faith still in AR he is no fool
Another worry is that Orta has found another overseas prospect in the Bundesleague as relegated side Koln are needing to offload their star winger Christian Clemens. However he was out injured most of the season but came back for the last dozen games and was inspiring Koln to their best performances but too late to save them? Darlow isnt young Gunn so not really interested as we also have Miazek our Polish U21 keeper. I think we do need a good keeper to push BPF but an established player or someone like Gunn
Morning all. Would have Howson over Snodgrass. Howson is more the sort of player we need for our midfield and I think a three of Forshaw, Viera and Howson would work very well in this league. Only rumour I am waiting on to be true is Heck out. I think the Bartley one is happening but I worry that Heck might be sticking around and although liking his appointment at the time I lost all faith in him with the job he did.
yes mukka all good will be off to Malta in 2 weeks and when I get back 10 weeks off and her indoors is going to London for 10 weeks
