Poveda signing today

24 days to sign 2 rookies ffs. Good luck to the lads, but our promotion push is now a gamble.

He was in Man City's first team squad but its insane for him to be in ours...…….

Doesn't mean he will rip things up here but lets not be silly

This absolutely cuts across it all. Whatever the plus/minus about the 2 young players, it's the here and now we need to sort.

We've a striker who offers loads to the team, just not consistent goals. We create (although we f4nny around too much in and around the box) and just need someone to replace him from time to time. Failure to deliver that leaves us highly vulnerable - surely MB can see that?

We all know Bielsa wants players up to speed with fitness and with training.

This is an U23s player at best.

Is there an issue. Is Slim shady doing a bit off wheeling and dealing again

Cant say i'm that impressed with this signings when our priorities lie elsewhere. However, I wasnt that impressed with the Ben White signing and hes been great.

"Why do people say Bielsa’s been watching him that is not how it works at Leeds."

Watching, looking, seeing!..

I don't think Bielsa is going to go out of his way to go see this kid or any other player, I think it more a case of Bielsa will have everything he wants to know about whoever on his table!..

He new everything about every first team player at Leeds before joining, I think he new more about them then they did about themselves!..

He'll take time out to see what he wants to see and take it from there!..
