James, I wouldn’t want at all

Wouldn’t get infront of Harrison or costa

And can’t play anywhere else.

Was the right signing at the time, but not anymore

i want whatever would make leeds better.
iv'e seen much more of kent and james than de paul and saying this would much rather see what de paul can bring.

Not convinced by James. Would rather have someone who can play down in the middle in Pablo's role.

Fully agree with LIW, he is back up for us currently and we need a 10/Pablo replacement

what happens if one of those gets injured?

we arnt talking about having loads of players as backup, but having three quality players for the wings is good

Who told you Kent has a 20m buyout?

The issue has been he doesn't want to leave Rangers for Leeds not that you can't afford him btw.

it is. but far more important to fill the pablo role and use pablo in a way that benefits both him and the team. a cb and a 10 will shape the team better.
back up wingers are needed but not the number one priority imo.

James has pace, just needs the rest of his game developing, think MB can do just that. Again, wonderful squad option to have him on the bench as back up and to bring on late game. Think 10 is priority though

De Paul is comfortably the better player, and already plays the role that Bielsa actually wants these players for. The issue with James is a lack of versatility, I reckon. Can only really play LW to a good standard. Kent a bit better for that.

De Paul is superb. If 32m is the going price then pay it and bring him in, for me.

Would £20m not be the highest anyone has ever paid a Scottish club for a player? Can't think of anything close to that.

posted on 22/9/20

Dembele was close to £20m actually. Still, not sure Kent is worth that.

De Paul all day long.

would take James, not because of what I think, but if Marcello has gone for him afetr all that with Swansea, I'd be inclined to think he really rates him, and / or can make a real player out of him... he's had a years worth of PL experience to add to that too..

Du Paul, yes all day long !! - not just from my knowledge but a very good mate of mine follows serie A very closely, says he is real quality.

Kent, nah, not for me, don;t rate him

"Wouldn’t get infront of Harrison or costa"

-------

agree right now.. what happens if either one gets injured, or looses form? - its a long season don't forget...

posted on 22/9/20

or even next season when / if Harrison goes back.. we'll have a James who's played for Beilsa for a year, had two years Pl experience.

Quality over quantity.

We have options on left wing - Harrison / alioski / Dallas
We have options on right side - Costa / poveda / Shacky

posted on 22/9/20

Kebab, how can you mention quality over quantity then list 3 left sided players, that only one of them is PL class ?? - the right side, only slightly better, James better than 4 of those 6 players

Fiorentina midfielder Erick Pulgar now linked
as a back-up option if De Paul doesn't happen.

posted on 22/9/20

It's getting a bit boring now this De Paul game!..

And the Kent game isn't any better!..

Another quality player or two in to take the mind of what seems to be taking a lifetime to do things me thinks!..

Doubt it. Pulgar a DM that can play CB. Suspect he was meant as a signing for the latter.

I Dont think Kent or James improves our starting eleven. De Paul more likely to.

--------------------

As we call keep saying though, James will improve the squad (agree with Kent though, don;t rate him)... James better than 4 out of 6 wingers we have.. Beilsa still chasing him is very telling.

you can't on hand say we have a light squad, no strength in depth - then say we have Dallas over Dan James FFS.

I agree we want QUALITY over quantity... James is better than any other option we have, outside the ciurrent starting 11.

Kent would be a great additiona dn I don't think it would take £20m to get him maybe £19.5m
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The sticking point being he doesn't want a move

I maintain that I’d be spending my money on a GK CB and LB before any other additions. Those are the positions I feel we can improve on most
