As much as we could wish it otherwise and given there appears to be investment taking place, currently I cannot see the squad shaping up as one that could win the Championship. One player injured in Foreshaw and we look really weak . Jansson is the only Centre Back we have. We need another 6 or 7 top players or its mid table at best. Compare our current squad to Wolves last season. Hope Rads has a few tricks up his sleeve!

There’s a big gap between winning the Championship and mid table at best! Another 6/ 7 top players? Is that really going to happen. The stated aim of top six is more releastic and I still think that we will see 2/ 3 more players before the end of the loan window and that could make a real difference. I think the goal should be to be in the top six at Christmas and then realistically assess what we need to do to push on and avoid our post Christmas meltdown. Let’s give Bielsa a chance and some time.

another 6 or 7 would fail to gel anyway and then wed be looking at another mid table finish and hoping for next season. better to add gradually by signing quality. hopefully the loan lads will turn out to be good signings as that seems to be our tactic.

A sad day when we sell our young tallent.

30 Jul 2018 17:46:32
Yes. He was inconsistent but I had a soft spot for the lad.

30 Jul 2018 18:51:27
Gotta agree with both of you there. I hope we have a very healthy sell on clause!

Absolute joke if that person has sold Viera for 7mill euros, I wouldn't even have a phone conversation with them at that price. Watch it in 18 monthe he will be a full England international and valued at £35-£40million. Am sick of watching us selling our best players under the market value.

30 Jul 2018 20:18:35
We got a lightweight squad as it is, great idea let's sell another.

30 Jul 2018 22:05:32
Was going to say the same cockney. Was like when. Man u sold Pogba for next to nothing then paid a fortune for him back.

30 Jul 2018 12:14:05
Vierra to Sampdoria for 7 million euros.

30 Jul 2018 13:39:40
I hope Radz isn't even considering it, however, if a 1 was stuck in front of the 7, then just maybe :)

30 Jul 2018 14:38:30
Personally I don't believe that we would hand Viera the no8 shirt, so that we can sell him for less than he is worth. If we do I will personally not be wasting any money travelling the 200 miles to Elland Road I am sick and tired watching us selling our best players for less then they are worth.

30 Jul 2018 17:45:40
Agree cockney, if this is true then total lack of ambition on our part. The pain never ends!

Jack Harrison winger from City signing year long loan today. don't know much about him do you?

30 Jul 2018 09:58:43
Winger they bought from America. Loaned out to Boro last year but only got 4 games so not sure how good he is. cost 4mill.

30 Jul 2018 10:02:40
Bags of potential but yet to play a good run in first team.

30 Jul 2018 10:06:50
Know a lot about this lad, know someone who was on trial with him at man u. Very talented ball player, clinical as well, not the tallest or the best in the air but unbelievably quick. should impress and hopefully push for places.

Ed why does a post that is typed into the banter section end up on rumours page.

30 Jul 2018 10:37:59
Dougie Which page the post lands on down to discretion of Eds. I believe when it involves a new thread of a possible incoming transfer which appears credible it tends to start on Rumours before the discussion eventually meanders onto the Banter page.

30 Jul 2018 12:51:42
yes i don't think it matters what page you input it on.
