It didn’t take long

Yeah

Not sure why he’d want to play in the prem, treble his wages and play for a good attacking manager.

Too often in the past 15 years the club has sold its best youngsters and claimed that the player wanted to leave. There is a big difference between a player asking to leave as opposed to the club accepting an offer and then asking the player if he fancies it.

Now here is an opportunity for AR to show intent by telling other clubs that none of the first team is available for transfer.
Inevitably other clubs will express an interest in some of our team, but the most important part of building a stronger squad for next season is to keep hold of what we've got.
Over to you AR.

If his head is turned and he goes, then he goes. It’s the price you pay for having good young players but not getting promoted.

He’s a Leeds boy and loves it at Leeds, but he probably remembers the caning he got from a lot of fans as well.

I remember being critical of the 4 year deal he was offered, but it looks like a smart move now. It won’t have been big money though and he could have a career ending injury any time so if the vultures are circling, objectively you’d advise him to take a prem move if one was available.


The best we can do is offer him a new deal, as he won’t be up with the top earners, probably with an agreement to have one more year at it in the champ and a release clause if we don’t get promoted.

Most of you here just accept everything, and take it on the chin, yeah let him go, let that one go, same old cliche, let Byram, Becchio, Beckford, Snodgrass, Howson, etc. etc. etc etc..............the list goes on I could even mention Cantona, or Joe Jordan. What's the point, it is a vicious circle and we'll never go up if it goes on like this selling our best players, sometimes enough is enough.

thats great Ellando, so what you guna do about it then?

He's gonna whinge in a chatroom. That'll sort it for sure.

Genuine Question - What do you believe KP's agent/ advisor will be discussing/ advising with him right now?

I said this before. We blew it. These players will leave and look for the riches of the PL.

Rada needs to sell and we need an owner who is prepared to pay the wages to keep top players like Bristol rugby did last year .

We have to sell to buy, so its no surprise that clubs will look at our better players.

we'll always hear about how if we sell for x amount and re-invest all the proceeds thats ok, but we very rarely if ever see all those proceeds invested back and when we do buy new players they invariably take a season to bed in at Leeds and right now, it feels like we only have one season left at most with Bielsa to make a difference.

Where’s Simon’s pot, must be £20m sloshing around in it.

If you find them black holes Bates dug around Elland Road then you'll find that pot!..

That's if Cellino's cleaning lady's haven't already found them!..
