Maddison, Vydra and Douglas close to signing for little Leeds United? A Leeds owner splashing out? Exciting end to a transfer period? This ain't the Leeds we know and love. Don't go to bed just yet fellow fans. Watch out for Shaun Harvey, he'll be deducting points and relegating is for spending money on half decent players 😂.

It’s like the old films, expectant dad, pacing about outside the maternity suite, waiting for news.

I was actually present for both mine obvs

What’s the plan, press conference at ER or wait for white smoke above the south stand for signing news?

The white smoke will be chicos burning the chicken again woody.

Suggestion from YEP that Leeds are looking at Bamford
Not sure what people's thoughts are and whether he is what we need?

Are we going for Vydra or Bamford? There are also rumours around Hernandez!

Agree1 Disagree0

25 Jul 2018 20:02:06
I’d take him and vydra, get Douglas done then a centre back, be a nice productive week then!

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Jul 2018 20:02:59
Oh and Maddison.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Jul 2018 20:05:48
No thanks, would rather have vydra.

Agree2 Disagree1

25 Jul 2018 20:10:54
Maybe he hasn't scored too many goals recently, but if we were also to get Vydra and Douglas. Them two, saiz baker and Hernandez giving the ball to him on a plate, surely he'll score a hatful? Or maybe wishful thinking.

Agree0 Disagree1

25 Jul 2018 22:37:16
He got his first hat trick against us. He'd certainly improve us. Unsure if Smoggies would sell to a rival unless they're thinking about FFP.

Agree2 Disagree2

Personally think at 24 bamford will know its make or break, if he starts the way lasogga did at ER he will be a flyer. Ultimately he's not had someone at boro who has layed it on a plate for him week in week out. With ayling and baz whipping them in, saiz, baker, Hernandez, Forshaw all supplying, were going to get goals I know it. he just needs to see someone who can get 10-15.

Douglas agrees personal terms with LUFC. Deal set to go through subject to medical.

Wolves have already signed Douglas's replacement, so hoping we can at least get this deal over the line.

Keep calm George I say keep calm 😉.

I certainly hope so Big Fella. I know good footballers when I see them. Alioski can be on the bench until he matures.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Jul 2018 08:37:50
He will come good. There's talent in there some where.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Jul 2018 09:32:32
Alioski is not, and never will be, a left winger. He, like Mowatt before him, cannot use his right foot at all and, so, he cannot cut inside. He always has to go around the outside and he's just not fast enough for that. So, it's pass the ball backwards or poke it inside with the left foot.

I always find it incredible how some players can be so restricted technically. They're supposed to be 'professional', for heaven's sake.

Agree0 Disagree3

26 Jul 2018 09:53:02
Welcome to the forum Mr Whacker and I agree with you on Alioski.

Leeds have recently put offers in for 4 players in total, one of them being £5m offer for Barry Douglas that has been accepted by Wolves.

Believable3 Unbelievable0

25 Jul 2018 15:23:54
Looks like Marriott from Peterborough won’t be one off them. Leeds lost out again. derby have a bid accepted. Rising too £5m. Good business if they sell Vydra for £10m.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Jul 2018 15:43:38
And another one bites the dust.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Jul 2018 15:49:14
Marriott isn't vital for us but Maddison is.

Agree2 Disagree0

25 Jul 2018 16:45:25
Just think if derby get him for £5m. He’s used too playing with Maddison. If we got both would have been good business. But paying possibly £10m for Vydra and a few for Maddison, and Vydra be on more money than I’d say both Maddison what Marriott would be. Who has the better deal? If all comes off. ?

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Jul 2018 16:48:48
Maddy's supposed to be one of four bids, Douglas, Maddy, a striker (guessing Vydra) and a CB.

Agree1 Disagree0

25 Jul 2018 17:17:49
Yes Stafford. These would be super additions. Wonder who the central defender is.

Agree1 Disagree0

25 Jul 2018 21:48:29
Any half-decent CB will do, I heard young Phillips did well playing there so maybe we don't need some expensive bloke in there, just some journeyman type.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Jul 2018 12:56:01
Rumours saying wolves have accepted our offer for Barry Douglas. Class full back. Solid in the tackle and crosses well and excellent set piece taker.

5 goals and 14 assists from the left back position last season.

Agree2 Disagree0

25 Jul 2018 13:44:31
Super addition. Was impressed last season watching him play any time Wolves was on telly. And I think he scored against us.

Agree1 Disagree0

25 Jul 2018 15:49:44
Yes he did batty from a FK.

The problem with loan players is they don't always play to their potential and have not the conitement. We may get 3-4 Prem loan players last minute. But they will take 3-4 weeks to bed in and in this league. That's about 5-6 defeats.

Not really. Some of our best players have been loanees over the last few seasons - unfortunately we never secured them on a permanent 😬.

I hope you don't mean grimes peacock.

Bartley for example. if you go back through the years . then we have had some gems. as well as some lame ducks🤔😂👍.

The big trouble with the good loans is that they turn to carp if we sign them.
