Gunn, Bartley, McGinn, Wilson and Abel equals playoffs 2019. Come on Radz you only need a spare 25m cash. Oh btw all of these players are several steps up in class over Wiedwald, Cooper, Okane, Dallas and Ekuban. Thanks in advance.

I’m quite happy to keep BPF in goal, yes he needs some competition to stop him from becoming complacent like a lot of the team did this season but bringing in another young lad on loan won’t be to sit on the bench, with a solid defence in front of him BPF has shown he has the quality to be of a very high class. The rest you have mention I pretty much agree with although I know little about McGin

For a start they could take the £3m they are going to waste on Crapi Jerry and offer Abel a 2 year contract on over £30K a week. Not going to happen though.

He's Scottish and plays in midfield

Guessing whoever gave the thumb down to my above comment doesn’t like BPF, can’t please everyone

Davey What would you rather in terms of being loyal to BPF? Keeping him on his toes with Lonners? Buying another goalkeeper such as Stockdale? Bringing another goalkeeper on loan shows more loyalty to BPF development realistically. Stockdale on say a 2 year deal and he'll demand number one jersey too. BPF is class no doubt. He is our current number 1 but if the opportunity to get Gunn is there you take it as opposed to seeing him end up at a promotion rivals keeping clean sheets. Healthy competition for places way to go. Need cover all round pitch. BPF will get that anywhere else he goes so it might as well begin now at LUFC.

Agree with all except Dallas. he has been expected to play all over the park. a great all rounder compared to the rest!

22 May 2018 19:58:24
Agree with you metissekit! Dallas is a great utility player to have in the squad, and can cover, or sub in for many positions AND do the job in all of them.

Agree3 Disagree1

22 May 2018 20:12:07
Dallas is a decent utility player. He's a keep for me too as a squad member.

Agree6 Disagree0

22 May 2018 20:21:19
I don't understand why so many have a downer on Dallas, he's an international, he gives his all in every game no matter where he plays.

Agree3 Disagree2

22 May 2018 21:41:11
Stafford It's because to vie for a playoff berth you need better on the wing such as Wilson or Kent. Dallas shouldn't be starting more than 15 games a season in order for us to compete at the top. He's a decent option from the bench and to be deployed to rest other more skilful players.

Agree6 Disagree1

23 May 2018 00:03:37
Dallas is not a forward or winger. Ok for bench and midfield but little threat capabilities. I wouldn’t get Gunn or Stockdale. Bff has aren’t right to start so get someone willing to push him but have bench time. Fernandez just won’t happen. Forget him.

BPF should have the jersey for the next season. He deserves it and will only get better. Will another young keeper improve the squad, we have two one of which is an England player so no don't think so. Experienced back up would be good to work with the young ones we have. Got to agree Dallas is a good solid player but not one to start with. Maybe the way we have been playing has stifled him a bit but handy to have around,

Great posts in this thread, good to see us finally considering a good quality first team keeper. Forget all the rest, I might be singing from the 16/17 songsheet here but we need barts in the squad before anyone. he'll excite me as a signing more than any of the others, purely because of Hernandez injury record.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 May 2018 16:30:55
I didn't mean Debbie should start every game, but give the lad some credit for sticking at it no matter what, if a few more of the team were as committed as he then we would have finished considerably higher than 13th

Agree0 Disagree0

23 May 2018 18:51:51
George I agree that BPF should be given some competition to keep him on his toes but someone like Gunn isn’t going to sign on a season loan to sit on the bench and encourage BPFs development is my point. He needs an experienced keeper that can pass knowledge tips and game management on aswell as provide a cast over his shoulder to keep his performances of a high standard

Good morning Gents, Just seen in the YEP that we are interested in a midfielder from Hibs. Then as usual when you get to the end of the report it says "but Leeds could be put off by the £5m fee" Come on Radz it might not be on this lad, but let's have a deal or two in this window which shows we can pay a bit of money out on the right players.

Think he’s more like the new Batty, Martyn but oh how we could do with him in our midfield. Seen him a couple of times on tv and he does look a class above anyone we have with the exception of Forshaw.

Gary Rowett is available come Radz do your job and get a proper manager,

Whitey It's better players needed first. Should they arrive and Hecky underperforms time to go. I believe his contract is up in June 2019 anyway.

Martyn I can see him lasting the season then leaving next summer along with Orta. Can't see Radz rocking the boat until absolutely necessary. If the window as good as we think it will be Heck job should be easier and therefore safer. Let him see out his contract then we make our powerplay.

Rowett? first sign he doesn't have millions of quid to throw about … he's off (allegedly)

5 year plan, George.

Agree1 Disagree0

22 May 2018 18:12:16
GIW I'm with you on that logic, I'm also happy with that plan, much less hire and fire and more stability. If he still hasn't done a job with an improved squad over the summer I'll be the first shouting for Radz to give Heck his P45.

Agree5 Disagree0

22 May 2018 20:30:48
Then it will be a 6 yr plan because getting out of league one wasn't part of the agenda george

Agree2 Disagree0

22 May 2018 21:51:46
That's overly pessimistic Martyn in my opinion. Acquiring Bartley will do wonders for the team and therefore Heck. I'm hopeful not even Heck can screw up with the players being linked. You wouldn't do very well managing in this league either with Captain Cooper, Okant and Ekumiss. I'm not saying Heck is great but I think he'll do better than his current 1 in 4 win ratio. I think he can minimum hit 1 in 3. Assuming equal distribution of draws and losses that's 60 points right there.

Agree4 Disagree1

23 May 2018 00:12:59
I agree George. If signings are good enough then give heck 6 weeks. If as I presume Crapi is a sign of our intent. Then it becomes a conundrum.

Helloa from Hawaii followers. This is your leader here! Still celebrating my landslide victory in poster of the year. Just a quick recap on who we have signed and who we are bidding for and who we have sold in last 5 days. er? Ok. Let's change the subject. A quick look at how Leeds are already planning and putting important steps in place to improve on last season. oh? At least we have seen major hierarchy managerial and scouting decisions made for what is about to happen including. ? Right. Hope you enjoyed another fact filled post from The Ausman

Talk about success breeds success Aus, you appear to have raised the bar to a whole new level 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Just hope our Team can match your exemplary standards next year! I know Australia borrows the queens English to use, but a lot of the words get abused and misused but ‘irony’ is the same yes? Keep up the great work Aus
