None of us really know the whole finance situation at clubs and I wouldn’t want us to go for it or go broke but a few good signings and we genuinely could make a Europe dash.

Currently 6-9 points away from the spot but with a game in hand over Chelsea and Arsenal.

Our 2 centre backs yet to be full fitness and a few new faces could really push us up.

Having said that if we have no money due to c.v., I’d play it safe and be happy avoiding relegation.

During the interview of the recent announcement of the SF49ers further investment in Leeds United.

Radz alongside new Vice President Paraag Marathe clearly stated in the interview there would be no player. recruitment in this January window.

In the interview Paraag Marathe impressed greatly and his list of achievements in his 20 years at SF49ers even more impressive.

Still have a loan place available, Gilmour at Chelsea or Naitland Myles from Arsenal, both want regular footy, either would be good additions and wouldn't imagine massive wages
Or buy Harrison and loan both
IMO.

It just feels a shame they said no investment in January, again I don’t know the financial implications this is all having, but as a supporter I know bielsa isn’t around forever and now would be as good of a chance as we are going to have possibly for a long time if he leaves at the end of the season. If he stays next season I have faith but if he leaves, he’s basically leaving championship players playing premiership football.

29 Jan 2021 14:15:47
I think he won’t leave.
He will want another big summer transfer and a tilt at Europe.
He is only really going to retire after this so as long as he gets his own way. This is as good as it gets for him.
As long as he keeps us up and inching up the table we should Keep him.
He has his faults but win or lose against defend and maybe get a draw or sneak a win. No comparison. The prem league as in any league. Dosent lie.

29 Jan 2021 16:10:38
I think Bielsa now will want at least another year coaching Leeds and he craves the Leeds fans back in the stadium.

Radz and Marathe have also reventky been talking up Bielsa and the Leeds future together.

So fairly confident Bielsa will continue as Leeds coach next season
.

29 Jan 2021 17:20:27
I personally applaud Radz’s stance, and the fact that he has been open about it!
That said, I’d love us to go for Draxler before his contract expires!

29 Jan 2021 17:54:53
Yeah I agree with Radz, I think he is a wonderful chairman. Never really lies and commercial aspect has done wonders for us. As I was saying above purely as a fans point of view.

{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new player profile about, Dean Henderson

28 Jan 2021 11:33:50
The chelski meltdown before they'd even kicked off was priceless
With older players being brought back in 4 the youth, how about Orta making a cheeky 20 mil bid for Abraham's, 😂😂, they let Tomoari leave?

28 Jan 2021 13:27:54
Nah, Tammy tap-in not for me,

28 Jan 2021 08:20:25
Alioski going where?
That can't be right surely leeds wouldn't deal with them.
Not his fault but the clubs if true.

28 Jan 2021 10:31:09
Hardly the clubs fault if Alioski and his agent choose to reject a new deal at leeds and choose to talk to the Turks. That’s purely down to him and his agent. Let’s be honest he’s a squad player at best and has only been playing because we don’t have a left back. If he goes to Gala then it’s because he wants to.

28 Jan 2021 10:44:13
Aus Research out of contract "Bosman" transfers. It's a brand new concept that's been around 3 decades.

28 Jan 2021 10:55:52
Free agent at the end of the season. Club wouldn’t have any say on who he signs with . he can negotiate a pre contract. or rather his agent can.

28 Jan 2021 11:20:12
Right white. Didn’t realise the out of contract bit.
So. The club don’t offer him enough money and his agent prostitutes him about and galata bite.
Only a squad player but a regular. And plays better with harrison. And I believe on $16k a week.
Think he prob thinks he deserves a bit more if he is a prem first team starter.
Just saying.

28 Jan 2021 12:14:39
Problem is know ones wat dirty Turks have offered him
Leeds could of offered a pay rise, but Turks could of doubled it.

28 Jan 2021 13:35:58
The websitea reporting this speculation are hardly reliable.

Phil. Hay states Alioski hasn't signed a pre contract agreement ( as yet) .

Galatasary are having considerable financial problems, so doubt they would offer OTT salary.

28 Jan 2021 15:29:35
Good luck to the boy. When we get a Left Back he is even further down the pecking order. Gives his all but he is not a Premiership player. Maybe his level is in Galatasary. I wish him well.

28 Jan 2021 21:01:36
I don’t think he will be a big loss, Dallas is better at left back but I don’t think Dallas should be 1st choice either, having said that I think Dallas deserves to be in the team but don’t think he’s good enough anywhere else on the pitch so 🤷‍♂️.

28 Jan 2021 06:57:24
Nice to hear Rio Ferdinand praise Jack Harrison for his efforts and goal against Newcastle. JH is a player who has a work ethic probably second to none at Leeds Utd, he’s not the finished article yet but he’s working damn hard to get there. When he does we will have a great weapon in our squad who will contribute a sackful of goals and assists.
Well done Jack Harrison.

28 Jan 2021 07:12:03
I agree. Always gives 100%.

28 Jan 2021 15:32:22
If he gives 100% then his all is sometimes not enough. His stats confirm that.
