Use our rumours form to send us leeds transfer rumours.

If the rumours are true and hull want 3 mill loan plus 25 mill when promoted, IMO no brainer, that is an investment in my books.

Get your cheque book out then Richie.

Agree Richie. Am sure we can even get them down a bit from there. Would love this and Augustin to get over the line.

If we don't get promoted, would Bowen walk away from Hull on a free. Hardly think Hull would want that gamble. Sure full no condition deal or to a already prem. club would be more is what they would want.

They will trigger the 12 month contract extension before loaning him out Whitesee.

Agree2 Disagree0

I may be wrong and Adams will turn out to be a prolific striker but I really don't see him as a regular goal scorer despite last seasons efforts. Having said that if Bielsa wants him then I'm probably wrong.

Think he would carry on scoring in the championship, but like you, a bit more concerned about the PL. that said, we play different football to Saints, so maybe MB thinks he would bang them in every week for him.

That's 1 of my biggest fears with our current squad Bright, upon promo I think an awful lot of our squad would need replacing.

Agree1 Disagree0

27 Jan 2020 11:50:55
That’s why it’s pointless signing people for the sake of it to appease fans, we need prem quality or ones who can adjust at least.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Jan 2020 12:26:09
I’m not going to disagree with you there Chris! It’s the harsh reality that comes with promotion. Some much loved players would have to go, or become squad player. We would need a much bigger squad for the PL, and Bielsa would have to learn to rotate, too.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2020 18:56:08
What about Josh Laurent from Shrewsbury? 6 months left on contract apparently. Shouldn't cost the earth and looked good against Liverpool.

He had a storming second half

Not sure of age but he fits our wage structure

I had a great game once though

By the morning Bielsa will have watched all his games ever played and make a decision.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Jan 2020 17:34:16
Don't know if we have any money left but what about looking at Ben Gibson to strengthen our back four. On a loan to buy?

Believable3 Unbelievable0

26 Jan 2020 18:45:50
Augustin, Jarrod Bowden, and Luke Freeman, now that would be brill Jan signings. We’d definitely storm the league.

No harm in dreaming 👍.

Good player freeman. Forgot we were allegedly looking at him. Great back up for Hernandez in a number 10 role.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Jan 2020 23:08:51
Harolds on his way.

Agree0 Disagree0

27 Jan 2020 09:17:11
Mentioned Gibson the other day, but he’s not getting PL game time, so if we do go up, is he good enough? I hate how I keep changing my mind about players!

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2020 12:17:10
Brentford / Forest Tuesday. One of those games where I want both sides to lose. Settle for a draw and a few injuries.

26 Jan 2020 13:34:51
Plus a handful of red cards.

26 Jan 2020 15:09:32
And the naming and fielding of an ineligible player on both sides.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Jan 2020 15:13:11
With reports of a contravention of match betting rules involving the entire 🐝 forward line with easily accessible evidence for the FA to gather from their computers and a cooperative whistleblower from the requisite bookies.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Jan 2020 10:19:27
Anyone know or seen much of this new forward from Saltzburg that we are now linked with. Just going by what I've read he hardly seems like a prolific striker (we already got one of them in Bamford) . Bowen being my choice of the names linked, but seems we going for the cheap unknown option I guess.

Believable2 Unbelievable0

26 Jan 2020 10:58:28
He seems to well thought of but has not produced much over last couple of seasons. Think he is worth the gamble going on his earlier form. Think is attitude needs sorting but Bubs is good at giving players direction and focus.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2020 11:04:57
Apparently he was valued at €25m to €35m a couple of year back and they say that his low goals is due to being played out of position.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2020 11:20:35
Supposedly the guy has pace so likes to sit wide or on the shoulder of the last defender then chase down through balls.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2020 16:31:23
Just watched some highlights and this guy could be a winner. He has pace, skills, can run at defenders and can finish, basically everything we have been missing in a CF. Oh, he takes a mean penalty as well!
If we can drag in a CB, I think we will be in a good position to push on!

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Jan 2020 07:35:50
something a little bit different if anyone can be bothered, what's your best memory of a leeds game? mine is the last game at roker park o-1 to us but best bit was a tony yaboah shot from way out, turned on a sixpence cracked top side of the bar, graham was manager in his trench coat, rush, sharpe, bowyer, dean to name but a few, great memory (video below).

I'm from south shields but a life long leeds fan (dad lived there ) was in sunderland end as well, what's yours?

I still have recurring nightmares about a game in 1975 we clearly won

I’m getting therapy.

Ah, memories of when Leeds played in tents. You could have made two shirts for Bowyer with today's fitting out of the one he wore that day.

Sorry, watched the video again - make that three!

Yeboah. Rush and Deane Up front.
What would we give for one of those now!

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Jan 2020 12:18:01
Still can’t believe we ever signed Rush! And Hateley, for that matter. Both were well past their best!

26 Jan 2020 15:32:06
I loved it because I was one of only kids in 73 (8yrs old ) without a red n white plastic hat on and that g grahams trench coat clawed a bit back for me :)

Best moment for me was when Sniffer got on the end of Mick Jones cross in the FA cup final. Roy of the Rovers stuff that. Poor Mick did his collar bone in.

Agree0 Disagree0

26 Jan 2020 22:06:48
Sorry it was his elbow was it not his collar bone. And for you young ones it was that cup final that inspired marching on together it was b-side on our cup final single. We did things classy back in the day.

HSL What a day indeed. Classic team showboating like of which never been seen before or since. Epitomizes Leodiensiens, Leeds spirit and Yorkshire pride 💛💙.

Guys, strikers to LUFC could be like buses? What if Southampton chairman vetoes Hasselhoff and accepts our offer? Then we'll have 3 at the club or 2 because of Paddy lol 😂. If we get Bowen in the summer, then we'll have ABBA. Augustin Bamford Bowen Adams.

George. I wonder how many of us would like to see that happen?
I know "I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do"🎶😂😂.

Agree1 Disagree0

26 Jan 2020 09:48:01
I suppose George, it’s all about the Money, Money, Money 💰 I think Adams might be slipping through my/ our fingers! Perhaps we need to send an SOS to Victor to get after the French lad? Voulez -vous! But knowing me, knowing you, it won’t happen! Hopefully Bowen has been on the blower to Leeds saying Take a chance on me? I suppose the Name of the game is to get sorted this month and I have a dream that come May we will be promoted!, when the Winner takes it all!

26 Jan 2020 09:48:57
It will
Probably cost too much

Regarding Forshaw, does anyone know how much a new hip goes for these days? Who's really old on here? They'll know. Brighty? Anyhow, can we set off those costs against FFP?
