I hope Bielsa lasts another season at Leeds. One day someone will write a great football book containing some amazing anecdotes regarding “El Loco” Bielsa and what happened. I already know of many from his previous clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, last season was a struggle because we had a ridiculous amount of injuries. Hopefully we don't suffer as bad luck as we did on that front so that we have the freedom to rotate and use the squad as we wish. Mostly everyone has bought into Bielsa's way and I'd like to think we will achieve what we probably deserved last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah and maybe as you’re a Championship club the players won’t have the ego that some of his previous players may have had. I do wonder as well if the classic English mentality of working hard over working smart will play into his hands with how much he demands from his players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 2,201 Posted July 3, 2019 Author Share Posted July 3, 2019 Apparently we’re in for Raya of Blackburn for £3m (though I think the deal is stalling because Blackburn want more) @JOSHBRFC @The Rebel CRS @roversgirl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny 2,201 Posted July 7, 2019 Author Share Posted July 7, 2019 Apparently we’re on for Pontus Jansson which is confusing cos we have a no dickheads policy but Leeds are getting rid due to behaviour issues. What’s he done @Lucas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still only 23 mind, no age at all for a keeper, and with experience and decent coaching he could be a very good player. Given our defence is tragic and we now only have one senior keeper, it isn't a great situation for us. With the possible exception of Paul Robinson we have struggled with goalkeepers for over a decade since Brad Freidel left. David Raya for all his faults genuinely felt at times like a safe long-term option. Word is we're signing Karl Darlow as a replacement. Starting to get very worried about the season ahead...

Fairy In Boots 607 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 I don’t think we will get Phillips now tbh, but I’m pleased because I want to see Leeds do well next year, it didn’t feel right then blowing it tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny 2,201 Posted July 11, 2019 Author Share Posted July 11, 2019 I don’t think we’ll sell both Benrahma and Maupay, Benrahma has an extra year on his contract so if we hold onto anyone I think it’ll be him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluebird Hewitt 1,282 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Rhys Healey has signed for MK Dons for an undisclosed fee. He was not near the starting line up and at 24 entering the final year of his contract, it was best for Healey to move elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluebird Hewitt 1,282 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 £8m bid accepted from WBA for Zohore. I hope we have someone lined up as with Healey leaving as well, we're looking short front (especially if Bogle and Madine leave). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluebird Hewitt 1,282 Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Manga set to go to France for £3m, with Flint moving from Boro for £4m rising to £6m. Really unsure on this one. We'll be laughing if the ball is launched in the air at us, but we'll be laughed at of anyone attacks us with pace and movement as Morrison and Flint will be slow as shit. Also, Manga is arguably our best centre back. In saying this, Manga has apparently wanted to return to France for a couple of seasons and was in the last year of his contract. Unlike someone like Pogba though, Manga has been a professional and not kicked off about wanting to leave publicly. It's good that we've acted quickly in this case, but we're still in need of a striker or two (with Zohore going and possibly Bogle or Madine as well), a centre mid and a right back at least.
