Radz et. al. frequently make use of smokescreens, Vydra and Hernandes last year, Qatar this year. All ploys to cover the lack of activity in the market.
What I cannot understand is why Bielsa isn't kicking off about the situation.
I actually have a little more faith we'll get things done this year, well, ok, faith in Bielsa.
As long as Bielsa knows what's going on, and has his plan in place.. I'm happy if he is.
for all we know negotiations could be well under way... I hope so

exactly Els.. which puts me more at ease
Maybe Bielsa isn't kicking off because he knows what is going on behind the scenes and none of you do. How do you know we aren't actively trying to sign new players?
This is such a ridiculous article. The sort of stuff I'd expect Donn to write but with slightly better grammar.
I think Jonty was just trying to bring debate into what's happening to be fair... and its miles better grammer
I agree with sentiment of your comment though, ref Beilsa and knowing whats going on. there does have to be an air of secrecy about it all.
Think a lot of champ clubs are focussing in loan market. Will be a lot of competition for the better of the available Prem players. Don’t think it’s easy to get them over the line quickly.
Not that we ever get a deal in the door quickly!

agree Milky - I think Daniel James is still sat in the car park.. someone get him some water FFS
Nobody knows what is going on behind the scenes. It’s silly season. “Clarke to Spurs - he’s removed LUFC from his bio”. “Wolves lad moving to Leeds because he’s started following them on Twitter”
Pre season hasn’t started yet and I’m sure Bielsa will get what he asked for when he agreed to stay.
I don't think it's a ridiculous article at all. It's echoing the conversations some of us have had in work this morning here in Leeds.
What's happening? Who we signing? It's all a bit quiet .......
I'm hoping they don't try to play games with Bielsa. I'm hoping he's in full dialogue, knows what's happening and is aware of who he wants and who is being delivered (and released).
It's that time of the year I can't stand. !!!!
At least we know one thing, if the board mess up instead of the coach staying as its the best job he'll ever get Bielsa will just leave.
That will then turn the fans hugely against AR, not entirely sure he'll risk that IMO.
I imagine at this point the assurances Bielsa has received haven’t been compromised and we’ve seen from last season that he’s not really an emotional sort who walks away at drop of a hat.
By Leeds must not take this for granted and Bielsa must accept that he needs good additions.
Transfer window been open since May36, international transfer window open since June 9 but surely targets identified and talks started before these dates kick in.
Squad return for pre season training in 4 days and first matches just 30 days away then big flight to down under on July 13th or so. I’m seeing that as the date we really need players in by, it’s only 3 weeks away.

Should.probably have waited on the complaining until then, mate.
I'd have thought any plans for players coming in would be dependant on whether the much talked about Clarke sale goes through.
thinking about it.. has any club signed anyone yet? - I can't recall anything note from Premiership clubs or Championship clubs?

Well Hazard has left Chelsea, Villa have broken their transfer record plus signed two other players, Bournemouth have signed Kelly from Bournemouth all off the top of my head.
Barbet to QPR another one.

Hope they didn't pay over the odds ..............
Maybe we should sign Kalvin Phillips to stop anyone else getting him ..........
