    So where does Marcos Abad fit in. I thought that was his job?

    I reckon we'll get Ben Foster in, and he'll also be a coach!!!!

    So basically your post confirms we’ve always undersold. Yes we’ve turned down the bid for Harrison because it was derisory. But by your logic if he says he only wants to go to Newcastle, as the only buying club we have to accept?

    Looks like it's a nice shirt that's been washed with a black one.

    Diabolical doesn't begin to describe it. I'd like to see the Adidas designers wear that in public.

    Do you suffer with a reading comprehension failure ?

    I said we sold (Pontus, Raphinha, Phillips) for as much as we could get.

    That's not underselling.

    No, that's also the opinion of the Leeds United management.

    The notion that we undersold is, however, just YOUR opinion.

    Yes I know it is, you’re the one stating as fact, we got the best deal we could have got. I just happen to disagree with you and I have cited other clubs that have held firm on their valuation of their players.

    We did.

    You have cited selective cases where the clubs held all the cards
    You even ignored Leeds' rejection of a reported £33m bid from Newcastle, for Harrison - as it undermines your opinion that Leeds always undersell.

    Once again in Phillips and Raphinha's cases:
    1. We had them under contract with two years remaining
    2. But the both wanted to leave
    3. And we needed to sell to fund more signings

    In Harrison's case
    1. We also have him under contract
    2. But he is NOT pushing for a move
    3. And we DON'T need to sell


    Now in any case you cite where clubs are either refusing to sell or holding out for a top dollar price, it will be because the situation resembles Harrison's case and not Phillips/Raphinha's.

    Can you really not see the difference ?

    I bet you prefer a local rhubarb wine over a French Chardonnay too.

    I take that to be an admission of your inability to discriminate.
