RicRic Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Really need to see some magic happen over the next two weeks however as I'm getting bored now sorry to say… what do you guys think will happen in regards to CM role, will it be a CM that is to fight with ramsey or mcginn or will it be a player that is expected to start and effectively replace one of them?

All of which are completely different level to the Premier League, some are leagues we've signed players from who have really struggled despite doing well at their previous clubs. Have you honestly seen all of these players play to judge? I've only seen Aaronson play and although talented he's extremely young and lightweight and wouldn't get close to our starting eleven. JJ is miles better than him. On the other hand we've signed a centre back who has been a fixture at a top 3/4 la Liga side, the only league in my opinion you could argue is better overall than the Premier League at the moment, he also has played various games at Champions League level and played in European finals. We've also signed one of the best midfielders in Ligue 1 who is now being selected by the best national team in Europe maybe the world. Our transfer business is levels apart. De Ketelaere is in Belgium's squad and they're pretty bloody good if you hadn't noticed. He's an exceptional talent and if Leeds get him then they're another team having a better window than us. Leeds' transfer business has actually impressed me, don't think they'll be anywhere near the relegation zone next season if they get these players in. If we continue to be complacent this window then I'd be quite worried they could finish above us. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping for a player who is good enough to replace them, in turn, improving McGinn and Ramsey due to added competition. Old cliche but competition for places is healthy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DeadlyDirk Posted June 26, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 26, 2022 All I'm going to say is my goodness! How on earth did we all cope in DOL's first transfer window with the signings of, erm, Gavin McCann and Thomas Sorenson.... I'm going to say it, we've been spoilt in recent windows. #perspective 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As i said last night not really Leeds shipped a crazy amount of goals last season, they were on pace to be record breakingly bad at one point Buying midfielders and attackers won't fix that... So far theyve only bought a new RB, they need a whole new defence You can stick whatever Belgian international you want up front it'll make no difference when firpo plays LB to league 1 standard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post thabucks Posted June 26, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 26, 2022 Who gives a **** what leeds are doing ? We need to focus on ourselves, have a little perspective and realise where we are in the pecking chain. The players we want will have other teams in for them and we will have to be patient. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Not really Leeds we are aiming to compete with as far as I'm concerned. Don't think we are any closer to the likes of Arsenal thou. Long way to go in the window (for us and everyone else) and hopefully we'll have a more rounded squad than last season. Also hope Gerrard is a year more experienced and developed as imo it's not just on the players that are inferior to the clubs we are trying to catch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losing Phillips and then Raphinha likely to follow will be a big blow, although I think their manager can attract good players for them and they'll be better than last season. Depends on how quickly their new signings settle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re selling two best players and replacing them with players who have no Premier League experience.We all know how that ends up don’t we? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
