If we make the playoff positions this season I'll be impressed as the team has a lot of learning to do and little time to do it before the season starts.

Depends entirely on who we retain and who we sign.

Felix gone. That’s a start!

We should hopefully get a home game first. We've had a few away opening days recently. Millwall, QPR and Bolton. Would prefer a tougher team early on before they settle down.

Antonnson should be gone tomoz and Tyler Denton too. Both going to see their old mate Cellino in Brescia. Denton hasnt made the grade by all accounts as hes not even getting game time for the U23s as much as he needs.

Denton is a loan deal

Anyone know anything about the kid from Spurs called Carter-Vickers. Centre back who was on loan at Sheff Utd and tractor boys last season. Not getting into Spurs first team yet so being talked about that Poch wants Bielsa to school him? He played 34 games last season so fairly experienced for a kid?

Emerging player for US national team, has looked decent in recent friendliest for the USA.

Three or four signings, quality over quantity, not sure if that includes loans or just permanent deals. As we know Marcelo has close ties to a few top managers and that might help bring in better quality loanees from the UK and further afield.
If we sign three or four quality players on permanent contracts, slim the squad down and where needed get in a couple of loanees (better than CBJ and Pennington).
I would look to get a loanee keeper and get rid of Lonergan. Keep Ayling and Coyle (not sure on Bera), get another CB in and get rid of O'Shaughnessy, left wing back looks OK and I hope De Bock thrives but if not I do not see a problem (isn't that Alioski's position?), CM looks strong Vieira, Forshaw and Klich, others need to go,
Pablo and Samu floating role, Roberts and Roofe keep for up front. Strikers needed.
So Lonergan, Ekuban, Dallas, Cibicki, Sacko, Philips, O'Kane, Anita and possibly Berardi all need to look elsewhere for me.

Not sure about Klich. Has played well in Holland but didn’t really Klich for us (well, I couldn’t resist that one). It wasn’t just about ‘that’ slip, he didn’t really impress at all in his 4 appearances for us and was over hyped at the start. Hasn’t made the Poland squad despite playing well for Utrecht.. I’d add him to the ejection list.

CM looks strong? You can't be serious, it's our weakest position and that's saying something.

Its funny people saying we should this that and a Nuclear Bomb!..

Maybe we should all take a deep breath and see what our new Manacoach thinks!..

Something recently says its not going to be the same old same Leeds United!..

Its turning into a season where things will go the way others are thinking, and that's not going to be the way most want it!..

I think Bielsa knows pretty much who he wants to keep. However I suspect he might wait to see a few in the flesh before making his final decision on them.

The great news it appears he has the final say on players and Orta will be tasked with getting them.

The coach has little need to be involved in player negotiations but my guess is Bielsa will probably check their legs first

Sacko posted something on instagram saying he cant wait to get back....... scary. Watching the Japanese team yesterday got me thinking about Idaguchi and what Bielsa thinks/knows about him and then we have other outcasts like Cibicki and rumours have dried up about him

Looks like Ekuban is on his way out too as his countries FA say he isnt wanted by Leeds anymore

Malik Wilkes I guess is another who will probably be going too. he was supposed to be the next big thing but is behind Edmondson, Dalby and Clarke now

You just know the club are playing a blinder on the transfer front as the press are making all sorts of garbage up. Everything from raiding top 6 prem clubs, links to Poch and Pep players, ex Bilbao players, anyone who has been in the same town as Bielsa

Preston away first please

Preston....must be Chorley caught on camera....

Heard rumours of Wills going out on loan. A fair few clubs would want him, and don't think we should bin him off permanently. Still very young.

Seen Foden has been linked with a loan move because of Peps relationship with Bielsa, getting linked with all sorts including his paperboy from Bilbao and milkman from Chile, be glad when TB is done and the speculation can stop,

They're saying today that he is going to be coached by Bielsa. They can't make there minds up
