According to kicker we're paying half his wages, but no loan fee. that's still a hefty chunk! Hope he is worth it! Good first game for him though, burton. nice one for him to get his shooting boots on in and with 2 weeks to get used to the squad and get match fit i'm expecting him to hit the ground running.

I think this is another astute move . A good quality player with a lot to prove in a year, we need quality striker options and goals this year. We can worry about next year later, but if the premiership beckons we might be able to keep him. Let's see. One thing I really like about the team and coach is flexibility, lots of different options within the team and the ability to change things and cope with problems.

I love the signing, think he'll do well, better than oliviera but realistically, billy sharp would bag 20 in this Leeds team. I don't have a worry with how he's going to play, it's the fact that it is only another loan, which suggests to me 2 things: 1. We may lose him after a good season as Hamburg may want him back after rediscovering form
2. We are not done in the window, as everything so far has been long term. IMO lassoga will be completed already and announced tonight if not before lunch tomorrow. Currently I think orta will be contacting everybody he knows and doing everything he can to attempt to find another talent, and no more than £8m will be spent but we will see the benefit. Whoever he is, I don't think he will have been linked yet, and it will all unfold tomorrow. I am excited, these owners are keeping us guessing and waking up Leeds, I'm dying to know what they've got up their sleeve. Radz won't settle for going into the season with 2 fully fit strikers. We had 4 2 weeks ago, I expect us to have at least 3 including lassoga and grot. MOT BOYS GET READY.

Hope we have a fee agreed, otherwise PL clubs will try and sign him if he does well and they can blow us out of the water fee and wage wise.

Hopefully good bit of business seems the equal (if not better) than Wood but I have a sneaky feeling that given a run Grot will prove to be just as good a buy.

Think Grot may be the best of the two. As long as Lasoggas mam wakes him up on a saturday he will do ok i think. Worried he is a bit injury prone but he is another option.
