Adrian Balboa has left Leeds United this evening. Another of Victor Orta's signings to leave after a relatively short time. Orta was blasted by Leeds fans last season for seemingly wasting all our money on rubbish. Since then some have played better and the abuse for Orta has albeit disappeared whilst we fight for promotion.
Here is every one of Ortas signings.

Bouy might actually be one of the worst signings the club had ever made
I mean how is it that he is 25 and yet not played for either of the club's that have signed him?

Blackman cost wages and only played a couple of league cup games. Couldn’t oust bpf. Flop
Baker made only a few starts and was subsititued at half time twice. He then didn’t want to stay and fight to be part of a promotion side. Wages won’t have been cheap. Flop

At Getafe Saiz has made 3 sub appearances in the league, playing a total of 40 minutes and his pass success rate has dropped to 35%.
Not looking good for getting £6m.
He's started 2 cops del Rey games, hopefully he did better in those.

This is why I was so furious when details of the deal came out.
Financially and from a club perspective it stinks.
It is purely 100% in favour of Saiz AND Getafe.
There is no way we’ll get £6m AND we’ll be left with a player still on our books to get rid of who doesn’t want to be here.
The thing that falls me the most is that there is £0 fee which coiuld have been issued toward another signing to push on in January.

Id be utterly amazed if we got £6m.
His displays at Leeds certainly dont merit been anywhere near the top end of La Liga and i honestly think he will drift out of the side as the season goes on.
Should he return to Leeds there will be a fair few fans who would not be happy.

It's not like we are missing him anyway, I'd be happy for hi to go permanently at this point.
He does not want to be here for family reasons and he is a nomad anyway so might as well get rid

Lassogga was utterly dreadful. A truly exasperating player.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Played many games after taking pain killing injections in his knee(s). It was obvious he wasn’t comfortable.
