Players I would target this summer, in the areas we need to strengthen.
Defence:
CB Matt mills - £1M
RB Danny Simpson - Free (to push Byram up to RM?)
Midfield:
CM Jamie O'hara - (is he free?)
CM Alan Judge - free or Lewis McGugan - £1.5 million
RM jermaine pennant - free or Adomah £1M
LM chris Humphreys - free
Strikers:
Billy sharp £1M, Simeon Jackson - free, Doyle - free or possibly Max Clayton?

I know some players are a bit unrealistic like mcgugan but they are the little bit of quality we need. MOT

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Firstly mcgugan is not going to cost 1.5 million he's a free agent soon as for doyle he still has two years on his wolves contract

Agree0 Disagree0

Just look at the number of players that are out of contract or released this summer.

IMO I think LUFC would be stupid to pay any transfer fees looking at the quality that's available.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Agreed

Agree0 Disagree0

Jermaine pennant, Simeon Jackson and Alex Pearce would be fantastic signings, all freebees and should also try and get Vicente who has just left brighton. He was one of their best players in the last few years but due to their financial situation which is a wage and transfer budget which is considerably worse than ours under bates, due to the fact that they over spent and gambled on promotion. He didn't get his contract renewed

Agree0 Disagree0

Fraiser Campbell another free agent would be good and his dads a massive leeds fan so we would have a big chance on landing him

Agree0 Disagree0

Andrea moritz for palace would be a good free agent

Agree0 Disagree0

Vicente is a premier league class player, he should never have been at Brighton to start with.

Agree0 Disagree0

Vincente is so injury prone its unreal only played 18 times for brighton in nearly 3 seasons

Agree0 Disagree0

Fraiser campbell is not a free agent come on people he signed for cardiff in january for big money

Agree0 Disagree0

Fraizer Campbell a free agent. I seriously doubt Cardiff paid 500,000 for a player on half a season contract

Agree0 Disagree0

Fraizer Campbell contract runs to 30. 06. 2016 to add the transfer paid was actually £682. 000.

Agree0 Disagree0

I personally know Sam Byrams friend, a work colleague and iv also met Sam Byram on numerous occasions, and he has said he is going nowhere and will be a leeds united player next season. FACT! so stop makining up rubbish stories which you know nothing about!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Gradel once said that too, players can be easily swayed

Agree0 Disagree0

So did Alan smith. sometimes it's not the players choice.

I think someone should tweet Rio and point out there is only one thing left in football that would be a real challange that would earn legend status. i'm not one to go on about old players returning but would be amazing.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

His legs are close to being gone. A bit of a gamble and not a cheap one either.

Also there would be a large number of fans, not one myself though, that wouldn't accept him back considering his career since he lift.

Mr Happy.

Wouldnt want him any where need LUFC - did you see WBA's 5th goal last weekend? He was brought on to prevent it and handed it to them on a plate.

Agree0 Disagree0

21 May 2013 18:36:53
U joking mate he's passed and useless one off fergies boys some Leeds fans make me laugh

Agree0 Disagree0

Love that WBA's 5th

Richard Dunne already released from villa, with Ireland and Given likely to follow. Surely they would all be fantastic signings?! What do you think?

Mot

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Given will go to another prem team, Dunne didn't play at all last season, and Ireland needs a rocket right up his backside.

People look for names and not the players.

Agree0 Disagree0

Re Ireland, maybe Leeds can provide the rocket. I'd get him and Dunne in.

Agree0 Disagree0

Leeds are struggling to keep hold of Diouf due to the fact he is currently being held hostage after being assaulted in Senegal. If we do not get him back, we are looking at Lee Cattermole as his replacement. MOT

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Lol, what a joker you are!

Agree0 Disagree0

Terry Waite lasted a few years captive and carried on with his career after release

Agree0 Disagree0

Er, two completely different players? how could one replace the other?

Jernade Meade has been released by Arsenal, would be a good, young left back/left winger to get in

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Definitely, he has pace, skill, technical ability out of this world, his only downside is his height he's 5 ft 3 in and from what I know that is what held him back at Arsenal.

He's a Great Winger, definitely not a LB anymore. He did play LB as a kid.

I would hope that Leeds are in for him.

Agree0 Disagree0

Richard Dunne not been offered a new contract with aston villa. I defo think he would be a class addition and the type of defender we need.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

100% agree! He might be old but the mixture of dunne's experience and lees' youth could work a treat! Mot

Agree0 Disagree0

He didn't play at all last season there is a reason for that.

Agree0 Disagree0

Some people never learn!

Too old, too slow - Sound familiar?
leeds have signed loads of players like this in recent years and the vast majority have been unmitigated disasters. Let's stick to players the right side of 30.

ps. I know Strachan was awesome, but he was the exception rather than the rule!

Agree0 Disagree0

Saying there is a reason for Dunne playing no games this season.

I would argue there is also a reason that this season they have declined massively to the year before when Dunne was playing? Some people are so shortsighted on here it is unbelievable.

Agree0 Disagree0

So we turn our attentions to khizanishvilli instead of mills, is that because they have to spend money on mills, cheap option again, suppose they will make a packet with fans getting his name on the shirt ha ha.

I can't believe how much talent is being released this year if BMD is the man he will be able to build an immense squad.

Looks like PL clubs are wary of FFP rules and cutting their cloth.

Arsenal are set to release at least 12 players, & I would really like Leeds to sign Ball playing CB Elton Monteiro (6ft 3inch)

He's 18 and has been there captain, this year, we would be crazy not to be in for him.
