Flight from Nice tomorrow at East Leeds.
Breel Embolo would be nice!
1.) 16 Jul 2025 22:55:42
Don't need another injury prone striker.
2.) 16 Jul 2025 23:47:29
Not injury prone, had one bad season yes, over 40 games in multiple seasons in last 5 or so years.
3.) 17 Jul 2025 00:55:31
He's missed less than 10 games with injury in 2 seasons since 2018
He's injury prone and not at the level to be our main striker
Easy pass.
4.) 17 Jul 2025 09:17:14
Sorry Borat I don't get that missed 10 games since 2018 yet injury prone? Is that a typo.
5.) 17 Jul 2025 10:38:37
Not a typo, just misread
I said there have only been 2 seasons since 2018 where he's missed less than 10 league matches with injury
And he missed the entirety of the season before last.
6.) 17 Jul 2025 11:15:31
Right I understand now, forgive the oldie buddy.
7.) 17 Jul 2025 11:37:16
There’s been media stories linking us to two players who play for Nice - one of whom would be very nice - but of course there’s probably little substance to either link.
8.) 17 Jul 2025 13:04:34
Maybe you haven't accounted for Bundesliga and Ligue 1 playing less games a season Borat, as he has missed 5,29,2,5,3,6,14 league games by season so only 2 of the last 7 seasons has he missed more than 10 games. No clue if he was injured 7 years ago or wasn't a regular starter but certainly not what I'd call injury prone.
9.) 17 Jul 2025 20:50:43
I don't think for a minute there is anything in this Embolo link (is it even a link or just a comment that he's available and in our price range? ) But at £13m he must be worth a punt?
10.) 17 Jul 2025 21:27:52
Comment only.
11.) 18 Jul 2025 11:29:04
Lads just wait again until they are actually playing for us all paper talk and rumours I think like every year.
15 Jun 2025 13:31:12
Lukas Nmecha allegedly close to signing on a free.
Wasn't there some mention of him or his brother being at ER recently?
This could have legs to it.
1.) 15 Jun 2025 13:43:21
Yeah should be confirmed today. Him or his brother. I keep getting told it’s felix but lukas seems more plausible to me.
He failed his medical with a broken ankle but clearly they are still prepared to take a chance on him.
2.) 15 Jun 2025 15:06:02
Another player who won't play!
3.) 15 Jun 2025 15:59:37
It’s been confirmed it is Lukas.
4.) 15 Jun 2025 16:03:25
I take it he's the one that was taken to a different hospital after failing medical as reported a week or so back, could be a risk or a master stroke we shall see in the near future guys and gals.
5.) 15 Jun 2025 16:28:58
Yes, correct.
6.) 15 Jun 2025 17:18:05
My personal view is that he will prove to be a quality signing, and on a free!
7.) 15 Jun 2025 19:21:59
Agree bright. I think he will be something special and maybe even coax his brother to come and join us later as well.
8.) 15 Jun 2025 21:26:54
This is how transfers should be. Under the radar and just announced when completed. Let's hope there are several more pleasant surprises.
9.) 16 Jun 2025 12:47:42
seems it was Nmecha who had to get the second medical done. Bit of a dicey injury record so that's probably why they wanted a more thorough check.
31 Aug 2023 21:54:40
What happened to the Facundo Buonotte (or whatever the spelling is) rumours?
CAM still very much a need we haven't filled yet.
1.) 31 Aug 2023 22:44:56
There were suggestions that Buonotte may end up staying, following the injury to Julio Enciso, but the reported Ansu Fati loan from Barcelona may enable Brighton to loan out Buonotte afterall.
2.) 31 Aug 2023 22:51:19
Genuinely don’t think we need a 10, Farke has said he likes Summerville there and last game we had piroe and Rutter rotating in that role.
23 Aug 2023 21:15:35
According to Romano bid in for Nadiem Amiri.
Know nothing of him, anyone?
1.) 23 Aug 2023 22:02:24
Wikipedia has him a Leeds player already.
2.) 23 Aug 2023 22:39:40
Saw that Chris, very quick off the mark and funny too!
3.) 24 Aug 2023 07:01:29
Saw him score a cheeky back heel goal once.
4.) 24 Aug 2023 07:33:22
Absolutely no chance! He’s fairly regular starter for them, maybe less under Alonso but still too good for Championship. If he’s available, another Bundesliga side will get him.
5.) 24 Aug 2023 07:35:50
Seen articles giving him good stats per 90 mins, but he’s played only limited minutes - for example, last season he had 13 starts across league and cup competitions, and 23 sub appearances (including 2 v Farke’s Borussia Monchengladbach - getting the winning assist in the away match) and only completing 90 minutes 4 times) . To be fair, Leverkusen were stacked in midfield, and he had some decent competition for minutes.
Injury history shows one fairly lengthy layoff with a fatigue injury, a number of small niggles, but nothing other than CV and other sickness in last couple of seasons.
Seems to be very decent technically with a good range of passes - apparently similar attributes to Baz’s beloved Pablo Hernandez though with less pace, but better off the ball.
6.) 24 Aug 2023 08:16:13
Very interesting clue! Maybe we do have a chance of getting him!
7.) 24 Aug 2023 10:27:17
The latest reports from Sky sports say he wants to sign for Marseille, so I think we can forget about it, seemed unlikely anyway.
8.) 24 Aug 2023 17:17:58
I’ve just read some reports saying he’s actually agreed to join us and has signed a 4 year deal! Fee between €5-6m so about £4.5m in old money. If true could be an absolute steal!
08 Aug 2023 22:22:31
Joe Rodon on a season loan is the latest rumour.
1.) 08 Aug 2023 23:31:18
Building up our ??????? contingent.
2.) 09 Aug 2023 08:46:33
After enjoying mixed success cracking the American Market, the board have decided to turn their attentions instead to the "lucrative" Welsh Market. "We think its a great opportunity to cash in on the success that Wrexham are enjoying" said club spokesman Steve Bucket, "and are hoping for a money spinning tour of the great Welsh grounds.
3.) 09 Aug 2023 08:48:53
Including the Millenium Stadium and er, that place where the Welsh Rugby team play. "
Interesting piece - let's see if it's a success.
4.) 09 Aug 2023 10:05:06
??? - Brilliant, Alf.
5.) 09 Aug 2023 10:09:46
But Rodin would be a really good signing though, if we got any two from Rodon, that Greek one whose name I’m not trying, Philips and Harewood-Bellis what a massive upgrade that’d be at CB. With Cresswell as well, not bad.

Just looked at the table and apart from Sunderland, none of the teams above us right now are ones I'd have expected us to finish above at the end of the season.
That is quite satisfying tbh and makes me feel a little bit more secure.
1.) 30 Sep 2025 02:02:30
There are a few below that could come good and move above us maybe ?
It’s been a solid start.
Shame about Fulham and Bournemouth last minute goals. We coulda been on 11 above the October guaranteed staying up.
But that’s the way of the world Spose.
23 Aug 2025 17:49:09
Looks life ref had been told we've had all our calls this season.
Very inconsistent and a homer.
1.) 23 Aug 2025 20:13:44
Despite how bad we were, he wasn't great.
21 Aug 2025 10:43:31
Anyone else notice Eddie was at the Celtic game last night?
I assume it was the owners box they were panning and there was Mr Gray watching a crap game.
1.) 21 Aug 2025 12:53:40
Not far from Leeds, south Scotland to Celtic, Scotland. And a freebie. What else he going to do? Emmerdale?
2.) 21 Aug 2025 13:30:02
Eddie often ties in a family visit to Scotland with a game at Celtic.
3.) 21 Aug 2025 15:34:26
Good for him, glad he still has that love for the game.
4.) 21 Aug 2025 22:18:57
Eddie and Billy both huge Celtic supporters. My brother and I were at Eddie’s testimonial against Celtic at parkhead in May 1976 which Leeds won3-1 and Eddie scoring directly from a corner kick. Happy days.
09 Aug 2025 15:46:06
If Bogle is out we'd best buy a right back by Monday.
I know confidence makes a difference but if Schmidt is international standard, there's hope for me yet!
26 Jul 2025 20:00:31
Perri finally official, nice work so far 49ers.
26 Sep 2025 18:18:01
Brilliant Mo.
10 Sep 2025 15:11:35
Get your gloves Berm.
01 Sep 2025 20:31:15
Fulham changed their mind because we lowballed them?
01 Sep 2025 16:19:47
Hearing it's on and off. So no clue what's going on Chris.
28 Aug 2025 21:20:52
Loan could be a good piece of business to leave cash available for Jan if needed.
12 Oct 2025 14:46:08
I agree that high level sport is generally for the elite Aus.
If I had the coin, my youngest would have had a chance at being at the last Olympics, but we couldn't afford all the traveling and private lessons.
Making Representative teams here (provincial level) becomes expensive but nicely most clubs have discretionary funds to help the more gifted who's family can't afford it.

I was amazed when we moved from UK to Canada the number of organized sports and activities available to kids at good prices and the huge participation rates. Often kids did multiple.
Eldest focused on football, karate and scouts while youngest did Fencing along with karate and scouts.
Both did basketball as well for a year or so.
This part of Canada is very laid back and when I coached football work were happy for me to leave early some days. Very different!
11 Oct 2025 10:55:43
Loved those two Bright, some defender was always going home bruised like never before!
Happy Days.
05 Oct 2025 22:20:46
Interesting you mentioned Harrison Koch.
I said during the game when we were slowly passing the ball around waiting for the red carpet to be rolled out for us 'look the only one making runs into space with purpose is the Bielsa boy'.
I was annoyed by our slow pace when chasing the game.
05 Oct 2025 00:42:43
As you liked Baz so much Chris, here's his weekly quote to help you reminisce
The Burnley game is a 'must win'.
