Great to see where we are and two things over the last few hours epitomise the club at the moment.

Seeing yesterday’s post match interviews how many managers moan about how injuries are affecting their teams - when did anyone hear Bub complaining it’s not fair because we have half our team on the treatment table, he takes it all in his stride and gets on with it.

The other thing is the tweet by Pontus about Saiz, stating it’s not about one or two players or even the first eleven it’s all about the squad.

If everyone remains so positive at Elland Road then that team spirit will get us up. I liked the earlier post where the team at the top on the 15 th December goes up, let’s keep that run going 😏.

I think the team sport is the main reason Saiz is being allowed to leave. Can't see Bielsa would want an unhappy player around this group of lads. The fact that we are not getting a loan fee and no guarantee they will even buy him in the summer, plus the spend of the exit suggests Bielsa and do are happy to get rid off him. Yes I know he has off field issues with his partner etc, and it's best we allow him to go. His agent must have been working behind the scenes to arrange this with the Spanish club and Leeds management's blessing.

I think His availability has been mentioned in certain circles since the summer. Remember he has links to Getafe. Their situation has changed with a couple of long term injuries, so I think suddenly this opportunity came up! But it wouldn’t surprise me if we get him back in the summer. Imagine he will have a real incentive to perform over the next 6 months but he is going to be up against the bigger clubs. Interesting to see how he does.

The thing is Spanish, will we want him back in the summer? If he can't cut it in La Liga it's no good him trying to play in the Prem :)

I don’t think we will want him back anyway! Just a bit worried that this is a short term need for Getafe! Added to that he is playing at a higher level and his personality! Only needs something to go wrong and I guess back he comes, unless somone else in Spain wants him.

Think we should put a backstop in the deal!

If Pontus thinks someone is not putting a shift in, the move to Spain might be for the lads own safety

I’d not want to be upsetting Pontus tbh.
