Ross is looking to move for more money. Can not blame the guy he knows he is not going to be the main man here next season when new strikers arrive and where will that leave him if he is not getting games. Massimo knows that he will have to sell him now to make any real money on him, badge kissing and promises don't mean a thing in the real world

Agree0 Disagree0

His house is up for sale on rightmove so read into that what you like. Good riddens he was immense last season but if we can get the 8 mill speculated then we could put that to buying back elland rd as I'm sure Massimo already has this years transfer budget sorted.

Agree0 Disagree0

Also when he goes it will give the young irish kid a chance to step up MOT

Agree0 Disagree0

Before we are tempted to be too harsh on Ross, irrespective of whether he goes or not…more than likely he will…. let's not forget that he kept us afloat last season. without him and his goals we would have gone down.

As McDaid has played all his young career in Ireland how do you know he's not championship standard?

Agree0 Disagree0

Don't be silly Andy. He barely played in Ireland. He'll need to do well at youth level first. We need proven goal scorers if were to get anywhere next season.

Agree0 Disagree0

Represented Irealand u21s so he must have played well SOMEWHERE?

Anyone seen the photo's of the players using a river instead of an ice bath while training, Poleon looks as motivated as someone on death row, some of the squad really don't look to impressed, hopefully it will toughen some of them up, if they think it's bad they want to try Immingham Dock mid January for a pittance they earn.

Good hope to god they now start realizing LEEDS is not the last chance to make big bucks saloon anymore fed up having bloody prima Dona's. At least we no who will turn up and play for LEEDS not just the money from now on! Just wish the signings would start to flow quicker now, as they don't have much time to knit together as a team else,

Cheers ausman
Got a good feeling about our season if they can get players they obviously are after, and decent young British lads as well as the obvious Italian mix I think we may give a better game to most as long as they gel quick enough, and all the cowboys that think e/road is their last chance saloon just mozey on past to next town.,! As I think we will no longer have to endure the false badge kissing, old past it players anymore as MC is no mug and lives and breathes football so here's hoping for some pride and gusto and on the floor football type players at last

Couldn't agree more Andy Poleon and a few others got a face liked a smacked banjo So much work needed and not that much time to get the 6 or 7 players we desperately need. Think there might be a few more who need to go if they don't embrace massimos revolution.

Even though I'm optimistic for next season don't get too carried away mate, massimo did say 2-3yrs to get back in the premiership.
I think if we had an outstsnding season and went up next year it would be too soon.

Apparently Kenny has taken on board last seasons critisisms (and quite a few calories) and now as well as being an excellent shot stopper he will also command his area better, because there won't be any room for the opposition in the box!

Looks like three at the back - it's the Italian way and will dominate world football. Wing backs rather than wingers.Strikers who work hard pressing.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Kenny alone is three in the box.

Not being pesimistic and before we start calling for signing wingers,

Taylor (GK) has signed,
Silvestri (GK) and Bianchi (CM) close.
Other rumoured italians are Crimi (CM), Mancuso (ST), Cacia (ST), Viviani (Def).

now I don't see any wingers there? An new system maybe?

4-3-1-2?

A few Whingers on ere oooops you said wingers sorry lol

Agree0 Disagree0

I only comment as some were obsessed with wingers last season.

In all honesty I am not that fussed, player recruitment it is highly dependant on what formation the "coach" will be / is allowed to play.

Anyway, I am no expert or have the appropriate experience so whoever comes in I will support.

Agree0 Disagree0

Ere ere well said we have NO option, watch-support-judge-comment.
I look at it as if I started a new job tomorow how would I feel if people were writing me off before I even started?

NOT NICE but certain people are like that i'm afraid.

Happy Independence Day to anyone from across the Pond and happy Friday to the rest of you.

Not a rumour as such just an observation. I reckon Chris Burke would be a good addition. He fits the bill; senior player to provide experience for the young pups in our team and go up the bar to buy their alcopops in the hotel because they're not old enough, plays in a position where we are lacking, he's not purple or has 17 fingers (not from Norwich) or any link to that dreaded number so our crazy president can sleep easy and mores the point is a free agent. he'll do for me.

Mick, I don't disagree with your selection however Burke will want high wages. Not the type of player Cellino is looking at

Rumours flying around that quite a few VERY QUICK guys have been spotted around yorks in the last few days, anyone have any ideas if we are interested in them?

Fabian Cancellara
Andre Greipel
John Degenkolb

Believable0 Unbelievable0

There's lots of VERY QUICK guys around York and Leeds at the moment. They're here to compete in the Tour De France I think?
