Leeds to offer paynter and bruce plus 1 million for jordan rhodes
Believable24
Unbelievable36
Would welcome this rumour with open arms if true
however i think Lee Clark will push for better quality in exchange, or at least 3mill for Rhodes who is now a proven international striker
Agree4

We wish, he will go to a low prem club or a top 3 championship side, and unfortunately, as much as I love Leeds United, that doesn't include us. Top quality striker though without a shadow of a doubt

Leeds should take a look at 21yr old Le Havre AC striker Ryan Mendes Da Graca. He attracted interest from Aston Villa in the summer and has scored 9 goals in 18 appearances this season.
Certainly worth a look.
Oh & he's very pacey.

Come on then ! I was just trying to think who the worst striker we have had over recent years ? Here's some to start you off.
Paynter
Trundle
Showumni
Vokes
Dickinson

Unbelievable4
Dickinson was a left back? remember Anthony Elding?

Showumni was a bit unlucky- Dickinson was dreadful at everything!

Musta wiped dickinson from my memory... who was he, when did he get a game?? elding was bad! where is he now? how bout carl shutt?? apart from that 1 goal at camp nou....
Agree2
Disagree0
Carl Shutt- If my memory serves me right he scored 2 or 3 on his home debut. What about Ian Rush? Leeds managed to turn him from a prolific goalscorer to a useless has been in no time at all- Just like we usually manage with every high profile striker we sign!
Agree2

Liam Dickinson we got him on loan from derby he's at Southend now eldings last club I can remember his last club being Rochdale he is elsewere now though
Agree2

Cyril chapius, lamine sakho, remember them chancers when we were premier league and had a squad full of loan players lol.
Agree2

I can remember being at an away game at middlesbrough when Nigel Worthington committed a foul on the half way line and instinctively all Leeds fans sang OFF! OFF! OFF! he was deadful - I can recall Carlton Palmer playing in the same game - what a donkey he was!!!
Agree2

I think the original poster said strikers, but yeah roque junior was pretty awful! Lamine Sakho to be honest i remember him being okay.

If the rumour is true Simon Grayson was 2 minutes from the dole but the late goals will keep him in the job until at least the end of January. He has been given 2 million and anything thing he makes on players leaving ER. The relief shown by him jumping down the sidelines was there to see.

If you had the chance to play for Arsenal wouldn't you go ?

We urgently need a new owner and a new manager
Its a absolute disgrace
Agree2

If Aidy white goes it DOES show a lack of commitment......
Good to se Thompson coming through today, unfortunately you have to wonder if he'll be another on his way when we need these youngsters so badly?
Agree2
Disagree0
To say I was elated was an understatement losing a game against 10 men would have been hard to swallow on top of the last three games. I'm a Grayson supporter but playing one man up front against 10 men is maybe showing a tactical ineptness or is it that his players just aren't listening ..........we need new players sooner than later but it's time to get behind the manager
Agree2
Disagree1
He wasnt playing 1 man up front as much as nunez wasnt doing his job as a second striker. Grayson kept telling him to get further up but he kept dropping back into the hole
Agree0
Disagree1
02 Jan 2012 17:51:44
See what happens when you utilize the squad Larry. May have only won in last second against 10 men but better performance. Use the squad. That's why you have it. Keep players fresh. Introduce youngsters for a few games and give them experience. Use the squad Larry, use the squad. By the way, use the squad.

Good to see Thompson pulled in, when are the Turners going to be given their chance?

I dont think so mate always plays well at international level for ROI and will want first team footie in the lead up to euro 2012. But not at leeds (even tho he would be a good addition) papers on this side of the irish sea have linked him with celtic!

Big rumour; Newcastle don't rule out smith elland road return
Believable11
Unbelievable33
Where's the source? Leeds have been linked with him since he left? And will continue to do so!
Agree0

Not a fit player anymore for this level - and he is untested and unfit - with no games - He is what one would call a CROCKed and spent force - so NO THANKS
Agree1
Disagree0
Smith would walk into this Leeds team with his eyes closed.he'd be our best striker, and best central mid easy. Fouls more than David batty tho that's the problem.lot fitter than brown tho
Agree0
Disagree1
As much as i would love to see a fit, firing, hungry smithy back at elland road its fair to say the longer this rumour has gone on the less he has to offer us and the older he has become.... therefor i would say its time to put this rumour to bed because its not going to happen, and hes just not got what we require, sorry smudge, thanx for the momories....
