I'm hearing really good things this preseason about Ronaldo Viera, just wondering, who would u guys compare him too, I've never seen him play, like how tall is he and how big is he.

Watched him play Saturday combative in midfield good on the ball. Runs well with the play clever passes I was impressed we will see lots of him this season I could be wrong but he is why we are not going for bridcutt and I'm going out on a limb here it's because we have better in this guy.

Best we get some clever players to get on the end of the clever passes😂.

bowyer that is some praise old lee was better than ronaldo and veira put together. i'm holding out hope and trust wex judgement maybe part of the reason we let cook go as well?

Agree0 Disagree0

We have Antonson was outstanding on Saturday his first touch was excellent I have said he and wood played really well together.

Agree0 Disagree0

Hey up people, I saw enough in 2 minutes against Preston last game of the season to suggest that viera will be a regular in the 1st team squad this new season. He has the steel of Bridcutt mixed with the talent of Mowatt and cook combined, early days but very very promising! can't wait for the new season to begin! 😂 😎.

Great news about vierra. Let's hope he gets enough game time and improves! Things are looking good
This has to be the season
Sorry wex and BW. I will give him 5 games to prove me wrong and then start slating him again. Woods and played don't belong in same sentence as it means he can.

So it's bye bye Birdcage hello new Vieira.

If he's that good we should caĺ him viagra.

Agree0 Disagree0

19 Jul 2016 08:55:20
if we call him that it should work well, viagra compliments wood.

Said middle of last season this lad would be in first team squad. He is full of confidence as well as being something special. Expect Malik to be knocking on the door any time soon. Young striker with a lot in his locker.

Agree0 Disagree0

19 Jul 2016 13:19:46
we should be getting these lads on 5 year contracts if they are showing so much promise. Will help us to keep hold of 'em if they have a great season or we will be able to get top dollar if someone comes in.

See villa are talking to Sunderland about bridcutt going to lose out on another good player.

Believable2 Unbelievable2

I'd like to see him sign permanent, but if he had been a priority I think we would have had him by now. Probably wages are too much for us. Shame, because if he goes to Villa, he'll do well.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2016 19:30:52
I assume a decision was made a while ago that we won't be signing him.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2016 19:45:51
Really chuffed with monkey, a couple of CBs and one other should provide a positive preseason. We need a marquee signing though who's a leader, think for me Osman is worth a punt. Young players will benefit from his football leadership and knowledge of the game.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2016 19:53:50
monk might not fancy him? I like him but don't think he was amaizng and not sure he is a monk type player. would like to of seen him but will not lose sleep.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2016 14:38:23
I think we are looking at a solid Bridcutt style/ money midfielder. 2 centre backs if Bamba goes and a winger who can play upfront.

I would prefer most of the cash to be spent on a midfielder tbh, anyone any thoughts?

Haven't we got goals in us now. Dallas. Zud. Roofe. Anto. Mowatt.
Defence needs beefing up.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2016 13:28:38
I have never been a great fan of Sol Bamba as I saw him more as a liability than an asset. He was slow around the pitch, had poor positional sense and had difficulties defending set pieces. I am hoping that Monk has another centre half or two waiting to come in that are better than him and Belusci. I think its interesting to note that Bamba only played three times for his previous club and before that Leicester City moved him out of defence.

He seems a nice chap and Noel Whelan likes him but the sooner he is replaced the better. Anthony Limbombe is interesting. If he is trying to force his way out of the Belgium team in order to come to Leeds it is a bit worrying though. He seems like a good player but what he is doing to his present team he could do to his next - further down the line. I think the new signings I have seen look ok so far.

I reckon 2 more in this week and that will be it
Don't think monk will want to wait too much longer for his team to have time to gel
He seems well organised and knows what he wants and how to play!
Henry and limb?

Need more than 2 players particularly if you think the 2 will be a winger and a left back. Still need a centre back and a midfielder.

Agree1 Disagree0

18 Jul 2016 12:24:59
Not sure we need a midfielder.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2016 13:18:33
I think a quality winger and a decent centre back and we're top 6 material for sure.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jul 2016 13:33:22
Not sure we need a midfielder? We were weak in midfield last year until Bridcutt came to shore it up. We have lost Bridcutt and Cook from last year and gained Grimes.

Agree0 Disagree0

Ronaldo Viera will play a big part in midfield this season.

Agree1 Disagree3

18 Jul 2016 22:12:50
Defence has got to be priority, wingers are like buses and we can't move for attacking options.
