Cameron stewart should be joining personally I think he is a great player at this level

Dropped from charlton first team, maybe he was too great.

Maybe he didn't want to be there

He has the ability to win Championship games on his own. Problem is he rarely shows/uses it

Hull City fan tells me he was a one trick pony with a few fancy step overs and no finished product in to the box.
We at least need a proven crosser of the ball on the wing otherwise having a winger is pointless. now that is a fact!

Staying at charlton been told it was on ssn transfer news

BMD has said one of his targets is prem bound. If ince was a target (Which I doubt. ) think this will be the one going to the top flight. Don't expect to see big name joining but think we can expect quality prospect from lower leagues to add to the squad. Personally I think we are just adding a few now and then further strengthen for a proper assault on promotion next season. Although BMD does get his sides moving in the second half of the season.

I have close contacts at Swindon Town and we are looking to sign keeper Wes Foderingham this January. With Ashdown out injured McDermott wants backup to Paddy Kenny ( seems Cairns isn't rated by him ) at 22 Foderingham is young enough to significantly improve and potentially go on to be our number one and also has enough appearances and experience behind him to fill in this season if needed.

I don't know how far down the line any discussions are or how much the transfer fee will potentially be, but we are 100 percent interested.

DayAndNight

Your interested not leeds is what you meant. wes is terrible in league 1 so god knows why you think leeds would want him

i think it will be an experienced keeper probably over 25yrs old .

Stevenage have confirmed some championship clubs have approached them over 21 year old winger luke freeman, now i'd guess we would be one of them. Young, cheapish, low wages and he's a winger

according to the paper brian McDermott has given the leeds united board 4 names for January transfer window

Ed, I have stopped posting for a long time ;just once in 4 months, but I have news
Leeds are bidding for Luke freeman this is Fact!!

Yh that must b correct as u ain't posted in 4 months so yh spot on lol freeman humm yh just what we need another useless winger

To the first reply. what do you mean ANOTHER useless winger? We only have one winger and he's only played about 20 minutes how can you decide if he's useless based on that

All rumoured striker targets for January;

Connor Wickham
Nahki Wells
Callum Wilson
Lewis Grabban
Benik Afobe
Luciano Becchio
Paddy Madden
Adam Le Fondre
Kevin Phillips
Darren Mattocks

Take your pick.

Le Fondre, Grabban, Wells, Wickham in that order, I think Becchio has proved that he's not a Premier League striker and Prem quality is what we have to be looking at now. No good thinking players would do a job in the Championship unless they come in on loan

Take wells and maybe wickham that's about it!

only one of these worth buyer rest crap

This isn't a rumour. It's just a wish list of 10 strikers you've thought of.
McD already says he has identified the 4 he needs and one of those is already targeted by a Premier club, leaving 3 targets at this time

Darren mattocks----plz mate get of fifa. look at his stats in real life and your see he's just as bad as habib habibou. kevin phillips naa le fondre dream on. paddy LOL why? becchio he's useless. afobe who? grabban terrible team player very greedy. callum wilson yes I like him young and hungry. wells is not championship level standard and wickham will be in the prem

The same Habbibou that has scored 11 goals this season, 4 more than our second striker Smith.

{Ed013's Note - Different league}

Vancouver have already got rid of the majority of players to rebuild for the 2014 season in MLS and Mattocks was kept so they clearly see him as a piece worth keeping

Leeds will make a move to sign Kevin Phillips in January if no other strikers are available. Phillip is set to have crunch talks with Tony Pulis which is likely to end in termination of his contract. MOT
