I am beging to think the prices there charging for players from other clubs were better getting these young lads and let the boss man sort it becurse let's face it beilsa and his staff turned average players into star players in 2seasons and if we can hang in there who knows fort 4th season under them.

What gets me is west brom already have 3 senior centre backs and 3 strikers Fulham have 3 centre backs and Dennis odoi who can fill in too we have 1 centre back and 1 Striker most clubs have at least 2 if not 3 players to cover these spots I know struck looks decent but why we so light in these important areas.

And we were still better than both of them!
We do need re-inforcements and the sooner the better.

Brum, I have mates who support both teams
Yes, West brom have 3 strikers, they think all 3 bang average championship level, are you including Bartley in the centre backs who is not prem level
Ream at Fulham is no better than Cooper, Hector made mistake after mistake towards end of of season, and there forwards are ok, mitrovic will score goals yes, but knock heart and cavelaro are hit and miss, more miss than hit, both not wanted by brighton and wolves, so dosent make them stronger than us
IMO.

Completely agree we need some more quality signings, but on the WBA and Fulham squad, quantity does not mean quality.

Confident we will bring in Rodrigo and Holding (although would prefer White or Stones) this week, so the picture will hopefully look a bit better soon.

Not talking about players we all ready had or played for us, what about a striker or two, defenders, we will need at least two strikers not counting Ban Ban, and what about training the MB way, and being fit, that will keep them out for two or three weeks if we are lucky.

This is becoming a joke of a window already I know it's open til October but we was promoted with 2 games left why we always go for players clubs not selling and definitely not to us anyway.

Brum

Why should we being going for players that other teams are wanting to offload

I do NOT want to be taking on players that other clubs seem not good enough for their team

I am happy that we seem to be challenging for those players that are in demand by other clubs. It shows they are valuable.

We are the third tier of the Premiership at the moment. We need to see who the top teams are releasing. We need to see who the chasing pack are releasing. I don't want us just picking up league one players because they think they can hack it. I want players who will improve us.

Itโ€™s rumoured that we have been in for everyone and bids have been rejected, at the rate we will be the new Norwich up then down then up to go back down, Where is the great investment Radz keeps talking about, same as the players we are linked with, Radz playing games again.

I think, if you look on the BBC sport website, we have signed more players than any other Premier League team! ๐Ÿ™Š.

I get what your saying axe obviously it's just most players were linked with are not that great but that's just paper talk most of it time will tell.

Brum Every club sells at the right price. Cultivating high standard transfers takes time. I have faith we will land some of our targets. Many millions of pounds is going to look a whole lot more attractive in the first few days of October.

Nobody coming in for our players now then is that telling us something it's quaility signings need in prem but we need them this week or it will be Feb before they play for us.

I. kerp hearing it will be feb before any new player will be challenging for team slot

Why

2 years ago Bielsa came in and had a team destroy Stoke City who had just been relegated and were odds on to bounce back in 6 weeks. If we buy decent players they will be fit soon enough and intelligent players will learn Bielsa requirements.

John Stones rumour still around, personally would love to see him at Leeds, he would be a class act under BW. If we get Koch as well, boom, solid at the back.
If we can get one of these strikers from Stuggart or Valencia then I would be much more confident going into the new season.
Come on Victor, pull your finger out of your @rse and sign some quality players.

MG. I'd love to see Stonesat Leeds, as I think he'd suit Bielsa's style, but he'd have to take a massive drop in wages so I can't see it myself.

Agreed Danum
Stones is on a ยฃ100k a week.

Well if you believe the rumours then stones rob holding and Koch all promising links and Rodrigo from Valencia . Iโ€™d seriously opt out of Kent, if we could get him at 10 then maybe but if they are asking 15 to 20 plus then Iโ€™d rather look at Harry Wilson . I think Poveda Harrison costa will all have good seasons I back them Along with Phillips to have standout seasons.

This Kent rumor not going away, unsure why we would want him. We need a striker and a skillful creative MF, we miss that linking player like saiz, we have pabs but getting older now, I think Eze a better option and if need another wide man then Benrahma better than Kent.

Melly A closer inspection of Kent stats shows he's got a knack for end product. I'd take him.

Just goes to show how much nonsense is in these rumours, In a report in March 2019 on Leeds live Leeds were tipped to sign in the 2019 summer window

Nick pope
Mason mount
Mohammed Diame
Aaron Mooy

Don't think we even came close to any of those .

I think by all accounts at the moment we are most likely to sign Koch and Kent but it's quite likely based on the historical rumour mill we may end up with players that have not even been mentioned by a media outlet at all.

I totally agree Mighty. The media these days are just clueless clowns!

Getting sick of all rumours now we to make signings and get up to speed I would have thought we would have them in now why's it take so long I know other prem teams not making many but there established prem teams I hope the boss man don't think we can get away with same squad as last season because that will be pushing it but 4 or 5 quality signing s we will do well MOT RANT OVER.

To be fair itโ€™s hard to get it right, clubs know What we are in the market for and that we have a wad of cash in our back pocket! Everyone trying to hold onto players or get the best price. Easy way to buy quickly is to pay over the odds and then everyone moans as well. Iโ€™m sure that players will come but itโ€™s going to be the championship winning team for a few games minus White!

Agree0 Disagree0

Look away MG, Brighty, Canada and OP

But it will be soon be getting to the time for Radz to hire the Pistol Pete Ridsdale to get these transfers over the line ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜‰.

Theyll all be standout players in league 1 for sure!
