according to ssn transfers
lufc have signed kebe from palace
although palace owners are denying this!!

Believable21 Unbelievable18

Palace chairman has confirmed interest in him from us and a few more clubs so hopefully he will come to ER

Agree1 Disagree0

No if you read it properly, it says we are 'Set' to sign Kebe.

Agree2 Disagree0

As good as signed in my book

Agree2 Disagree0

Parish says Kebe is not going anywhere on Loan

Agree1 Disagree0

Palace want funds for incoming players, a fee will be agreed not a loan

Agree2 Disagree0

Not good enough for Leeds.

Agree1 Disagree3

How would kebe help us? just another useless diouf

Agree1 Disagree5

09 Jan 2014 10:06:09
Diouf?! he has pace to burn, my nans faster then diouf

Agree1 Disagree0

The person comparing him to Diouf obviously has never seen the 2 play, as Kebe is extremely fast and puts balls in the box for fun. Diouf slow yes, but useless? no, He's tricky, holds the ball up and draws fouls, he does the ugly stuff very well.

Agree1 Disagree0

CRYSTAL Palace have denied Jimmy Kebe is on his way to Leeds United in a loan or permanent deal.

Palace co-chairman Steve Parish has denied the former Reading star is on the move

Believable21 Unbelievable14

It says he's not going on loan. He said clubs are interested in the player including Leeds but they haven't decided if any offers (presumably purchase rather than loan) will be accepted.

He was very specific in his wording. He never said the player wouldn't be sold to Leeds.

Agree1 Disagree1

All he is really saying, is that no deal is complete yet

Agree1 Disagree0

From BM's comments at weekend I think he had hoped to have completed at least 1 deal by now. The problem could be that Premiership Clubs know what promotion is worth to Championship Clubs and with so many Championship Clubs in contention for promotion Premiership Clubs are inflating prices and trying to start "bidding wars". January transfer window is damaging football but the authorities seem quite happy to allow it!

Agree2 Disagree2

McDermott has held talks with Kevin Phillips about a contract with the club until the end of the season.

Crystal Palace have denied that Leeds have concluded a deal for Jimmy Kebe however Steve Parish has confirmed that we're in for him.

Believable19 Unbelievable6

08 Jan 2014 17:49:11
Jimmy Kebe coming to Leeds has meant that his former Reading team mates Adam Le Fondre and Robson Kanu are being looked at by Brian Mcdermott and they are intrested as well

Believable21 Unbelievable18

Robson kanu would be good but we have no chance with alf he's prem class and has proven that

Agree1 Disagree2

08 Jan 2014 19:40:30
If ALF is prem class why does he not start every game in the champ.

Agree2 Disagree1

He never started in the championship either.Would be a bad signing in my eyes.We need a striker that's good enough to start to score goals.Go for Kevin Philips to sit on bench and come on for the last 20 mins.Be good for the youngsters too.

Agree0 Disagree1

08 Jan 2014 17:40:32
Jimmy Kebe from Crystal Palace has signed for us! A pacey winger, just what we needed! MOT!

Believable12 Unbelievable19

08 Jan 2014 16:46:15
Jimmy Kebe and Cameron stewart to both sign tomorrow on loan with a view for permenant

Believable20 Unbelievable15

I am getting tired of hearing on websites how we're close to everything. Close to Stewart, Close to Kebe, Close to the takeover. Wish we'd hurry up and get them over the line. but yeah kebe will be a good addition.

Agree2 Disagree0

This is true seen it on ssn

Agree1 Disagree0

08 Jan 2014 16:40:03
Jimmy Kebe to Leeds is a Done Deal. Pacy winger exactly what LUFC Needs.

Believable21 Unbelievable16

Not had much much game time in last year very pacy but does have a potential attitude problem we are desparate for pace and he will not cost much & BmD knows how to get the best out of him. What about a left winger if stewart comes we will have 3 right wingers and no left

Agree0 Disagree1

I think Kebe can play on either wing!

Agree1 Disagree0

08 Jan 2014 17:39:58
Trying to balance out 4 left backs in squad!

Agree2 Disagree0

Poor attitude please we have diouf you dnt get worse

Agree1 Disagree1

Awesome signing if this comes off

Agree3 Disagree1

What footballer doesn't have an attitude after his first pay check?

Agree0 Disagree0

Diouf, attitude problem? He really hasn't and didn't

Agree0 Disagree0

08 Jan 2014 16:33:40
Close to sealing a deal with Crystal Palace for Jimmy Kebe and we are continuing to complete the Stewart deal from Hull

ssn

Believable17 Unbelievable11

Dont understand why the steward deal is taking soooo long to 'complete' He's a player sitting on the cafc bench, not like he's pushing for a first team spot for man city or anything…if we can't convince mediocre players to join asap when we show interest were in poor shape. My thoughts are that the player/agent are trying to conjure up a better offer on the back of leeds interest, prob trying to stoke up an auction of sorts.

Agree1 Disagree0

08 Jan 2014 17:20:38
Because the FA has disallowed a permanent deal for Stewart as he's played for two teams all ready this season therefore we can only get him on loan.

Agree1 Disagree0

08 Jan 2014 16:24:17

God I hope So

Heared from several different places that Luciano Becchio wants to move away from Carrow road after an unsuccessful spell. Favouring a move back to his beloved leeds but Chris Hughton only allowing a loan deal for the remainder of the season. Let's see what comes of this.

Believable12 Unbelievable16

Leave him there we don't need him

Agree6 Disagree0

You seem to forget we are struggling to score goals and Becchio scored more than anyone else while he was here?

If we can get him on loan, do it, it was only Colin that forced him out of the team/club any way!

Agree1 Disagree1

08 Jan 2014 17:14:47
totally agree, I for one wold have becchio back in an instant if we get stewart and kebe suppling balls into the box have no fear ross and luccio willput them away NO WORRIES.

Agree0 Disagree1

Me too. i'd welcome him back with open arms. I can't believe there are still people out there who can't see that Colin using his no.2 as mouth piece stoked up the sale of Luciano and then made him feel unsettled and unwanted.

Fawksey

Agree1 Disagree1

Blackburn and Derby are also said to be monitoring the situation

Agree1 Disagree0

Bring back lucciano any day for me

Agree1 Disagree1

08 Jan 2014 13:58:07
Latest Leeds rumoured players;

Cameron Stewart
Thomas Eisfeld
Will Buckley
Graham Dorrans
Nicky Maynard
Sam Winnall
Jimmy Ryan
Tommy Lee
Adam Le Fondre
Nahki Wells

Whether we get any of these players remains to be seen.

Believable11 Unbelievable19

You missed Rowe

Agree1 Disagree0

Sign them all and get promotion, small price to pay .

Agree1 Disagree0

Given that the takeover still hasn't been finalised (is this deliberate?), I wouldn't be surprised if we make just one token signing/loan.

They'll then come out with excuses "players not available" or "wait until summer" etc, etc.

I hope I'm wrong, but length that it is taking to complete this takeover, leaves me rather sceptical about the situation at Elland Road.

Of course, there's always next season .

Agree1 Disagree0

Cameron stewart done kebe signed apparently, arsenal won't let eisfeild go he's young a good player, wells would be nice though 2 million is worth it come the future

Agree0 Disagree0

08 Jan 2014 13:35:02
Leeds are interested in signing Arsenal midfielder Thomas Eisfeld on loan

Believable21 Unbelievable18

GREAT PLAYER (potentially)

Agree2 Disagree0

08 Jan 2014 13:34:01
Cameron Stewart expected to sign on loan in next 24 hours. FL rules blocking him from a permanent deal.

Believable21 Unbelievable8

What FL rules are these?

Agree0 Disagree0

FL rules state a player cannot play for more than 2 English clubs in a season, so I don't see how getting him on loan is going to avoid that.

Agree1 Disagree1

He has played for two clubs this season, he can only go out on emergency loan until the end of the season.

Agree1 Disagree1

08 Jan 2014 22:52:24
This might be a blessing in disguise if he turns out to not be the second coming.

Agree0 Disagree0

08 Jan 2014 11:09:56
We are hoping to get Cameron Stewart on a 93 day emergency loan deal with a view to a permanent deal! Probably the best option for is! Disappointing transfer window so far!

Believable20 Unbelievable9

Why is it disappointing?

Agree1 Disagree1

08 Jan 2014 12:29:04
So does that mean he had to leave early April and miss last month of the season and the play offs! (dont laugh)

Agree2 Disagree0

Disappointing!!
There isn't one so far!!

LUFC KEK

Agree3 Disagree1

Why emergency? Are we waiting for February to sign him? It is normal transfer window loan deals can last till end of season.

Agree1 Disagree0

He carn’t get in to Hull’s first team.! So he’ll fit in with the others at Elland Road.

Agree1 Disagree0

He will have to return to Hull early April, 93 days from when he signs. As he has played for two clubs this season he cannot be signed on long term loan or permanent deal. Crazy rule! Why should this block permanent deals?

Agree1 Disagree0

Disappointing? its only the 8th, oh yeah I forgot, every other club in every other league has signed 20 players each

Agree1 Disagree1

On twitter that a helicopter has landed at Thorpe Arch. not much else being said, just that David Norris' wife highlighted it to the person who posted on twitter. make it what you want although I cannot see Mr. Virdee taking a helicopter for coffee with Mr. Haigh.

Believable6 Unbelievable11

Leeds interested in Craig Sibbald from Falkirk. Young Left Winger

Believable6 Unbelievable31

I didn't realise he was so yound (21) but could we not go for Scott Hogan from Rochadale? He looked good against us and has been tearing it up in League 2 this season, may be too big of a jump too soon though? He did look useful though

Agree1 Disagree0

08 Jan 2014 01:43:18
Nahki Wells will sign for Huddersfield or Aston Villa. Not leeds

Believable40 Unbelievable20

Why hasn't it happened yet?

Agree1 Disagree0

Good news. We can do better

Agree0 Disagree2

We can do better? Pretty sure we haven't made a decent money signing for a fair few transfer windows and Wells fits the bill for what our starting XI is lacking.

Agree1 Disagree0

Wells is holding out for leeds, why would he sign for Hudersfield? they are not going anywhere

Agree4 Disagree0

08 Jan 2014 01:42:15
