Watch the celebrations when whoever-his-name scored and goes to them.. It's WEIRD. Some of them even attempted to climb up onto a plinth and one was visibly rattled with worry he'd be pushed over Sums up a lot of football fans these days. The gammonista are revolting; literally.

VillaChris Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Looks like they'll be going through what we did last summer, Man. City leaking to the press today that Kalvin Phillips is very much on their radar although I presume his release clause only becomes active if Leeds go down.

Zatman Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Spending 28 million on Aaronson from Red Bull. Getting the Phillips money spent early Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 I've only seen Aaronson a few times for US national team but looks a good player, reminded me a litte of Conor Gallagher. United States got a number of good players at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Is he a front 3 player? That's one area where they're not short with Raphinha, James, Jack Harrison and Rodrigo all as options to play around Bamford. Get the feeling he's Raphinha's replacement so big shoes to fill that.

useless Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Telegraph also reporting that Newcastle want Harrison, seems a strange one to me as from what I can gather he hasn't been great this season, they're probably going to have enough upheaval as it is with their squad and the improvement it needs, but at the right price they might just be tempted to sell him. Aaronson when I watched him was more of a No.10 / attacking midfielder type, probably could play as a wide forward as well, as I say reminds me a little of Conor Gallager, a good footballer but his workrate is very noticable as well, albeit I'm basing it on not having seen much of him, I think he will be a good signing for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 They seem to be spending a chunk of money. No idea if the players signed are any good and I'm assuming they're spending the money they'll get from selling Phillips later in the summer.

They need to They belittle our spending when in reality the vast majority of promoted teams should "do a Villa" because they need to, once that buzz and momentum has gone from the 1st season it's usually downhill... And that's if you survive the first season They need £100m spent on this team to aim for a 14th-12th boring perfectly safe season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Leeds need to spend big. If phillips goes i think they could be in real trouble. If burnley were not so shite i think they would have gone down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point i was making genius was that leeds didnt do anything special to stay up like the year we did where we went on a incredible run to stay up. They only stayed up because burnley were absolutely hopeless. Most years they would have gone down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 I think that's three outstanding signings for Leeds for under £55m with the market as it is. They have been full of Championship players for the last two years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 They need to strengthen a lot more, their central midfield options as it stand are Phillips, Roca, Klich, and Foreshaw. Klich and Foreshaw probably wouldn't get into any other Premier League side, maybe Forest as it stands but they will be wanting to sign better, and Phillips looks like he's leaving, whether he is or not they still need another two or three midfielders. They definitley need a striker, and given the amount of goals they conceded last season some might argue they need to strengthen at the back. They're apparently being linked to Adama.
