    Jury's out on both signings.

    I just hope they both go well because I fear we will need them.

    I'm cautiously optimistic about both. Hopefully we see Nketiah on the bench Saturday.

    Wonder what his plans for Edmonson are. Doesn't seem to fancy him does he?

    If we can’t get promoted with Ntekiah up front, Harris, Clarke and Costa delivering and Pablo pulling the strings, we deserve all we get.

    This is our year, I believe we’re finally going to rip the Championship a new one mostly thanks to Radz and Orta, though that will probably annoy some “fans”.

    I agree about Edmondson, though I have to say that even when I watched him lately I couldn’t see him bullying first team defences, Kun looked more likely.

    Strap in gentlemen, it’s going to be fast and furious. <cheers>

    What he really meant to say was "we will replace a Championship team of the year defender with a loanee that has never played above League 1, and replace a striker that scored 15 in half a season with another loan signing that scored 1 in 5 for Arsenal's U21 team so at £3M for a.season loan he's a.bargain <doh>."

    Think all you need focus on is the Wall this year TC, the only quality you had has gone to League1 like Bo Peep, and the rest of the club will soon follow. <laugh>

    I think we’ll be ok, but many thanks for the concern.

    Chances of a Nketiah quality player going to Leeds on loan 100%, chances of a Nketiah player going to Milwall on loan? <laugh><laugh><laugh>

    Feel free to pop back now and again to acknowledge I’m right of course.

    I would actually hate it if we paid £3M to sign a player for 1 season only - not what we are about thank fook!!

    Think you answered your own question there WJ. I chuckled at the same two points you’ve flagged when I read his statement.

    Reality is vast majority of players are tapped up... how else do you know if a player would want to come.

    KP does want to play in the premier league with Leeds... but so did roofe, so did BPF so did Jansson. I love the notion of loyalty but you can’t expect it FROM players if you don’t show it TO them. It’s the modern game.

    Whatever his agent or he might say in public, Anyone who thinks kp would rather be at Leeds this season in the championship than villa in the Prem on at least 5x the money? Well I admire their rose-tinted naivety!

    C’mon Davy... no need for the “fans” bit. I don’t think you’re any less of a “fan” for being a gullible dewy-eyed optimist <laugh>

    Seriously Radz isn’t the devil or a saint. He just has limited cash and wasn’t very well advised initially by Orta in my opinion. Orta? I think he makes a cut on any purchase/sale<laugh>.

    They may have made some inspired punts this summer...Time will tell... But punts is what they are.

    It’s Leeds. Let’s buckle down and enjoy the ride... the roller coaster last year was great until it derailed, let’s hope this one’s stays on track<ok>
