Helander being linked again for €6M, he looks good and Pontus says he would fit in nicely at Leeds. Apparently it will all be much clearer soon as we are expected to make an announcement on new signings by Friday! All good stuff though and I'm really looking forward to getting going. MOT

4 mill tops may as well get Bartley if we're going to spend 6 mill

this move is possibly more realistic than a Championship defender simply because of the price tag

Helander is better than Bartley. Younger and an international with European experience.

Dont forget your conversion rates Martyn, its more like £5m. Tbh I say we just offer both clubs £5m and see if either bites, its getting a little late in the day now and we need someone through the gates.

Sg Bartley is proven in this league were Hellander is a gamble. Not because he's a bad player but he's never played in this league. Anttonson was red hot in Sweden but here! See my point?

Martyn, Helander is from bolonga I think, and the Italian league is a lot better than the Swiss.

How about Jansson? If he is so good why did Torino let him go?

I agree bige. No way bartley is as good. $3m tops for bartley.

That's my point, one players a hit and ones a flop. It's a risk but we know what Bartley about. I'd settle for either and I'm sure janson would be happy with a fellow countryman by his side.

There's no guarantees Bartley would be good again. Whenever we sign loan players, they become rubbish on permanent. Plus Bartley only wants to play for Monk, not Leeds. Time to move on.

Just a thought but maybe Radz was banking on getting around 5-6m for Taylor so that's why he spent it on the new signings? The money might go straight back in Radz pocket.

Strange post barry. He has spent about 20m already not 5-6.

Radz and co are planning on 're-branding' ER with new signage on the South, East and North East areas of the ground. This will include montages of old and current players in certain positions (including gaffers, a tmeline of all our greatest moments all the way down the South stand and huge signs to make it all look blue and modern. The illustrations look pretty good and you can see them along with the planning application:

Alf this looks good and thanks for sharing it. radz certainly is trying to make us more attractive. Do wonder if we will at any point get some of those electronic advertising around the pitch

Never mind PVC banners, I'm still waiting for them to announce the conversion of the West Stand to a giant Hooters/Spoons. Also very surprised that Scott Wootton didn't make it onto the number 4 legends banner! MM

They are saving Wootton, Brolin and Clough for the banner above the bar in the Hooters MM.

Boban Lazic on trial with us. 23 year old Bosnian winger who hasn't really made any impact with anyone yet and is a free agent, having finished a contract in the Dutch second division. most likely a possible for the development squad but not getting me particularly excited this one.

Have a look at him on you tube Alf, he looks pretty good. But it does make you wonder why he's only been playing in the Dutch second division.

There are also players that develop later in their careers.

and there are the injury-prone who may have talent but will only play a handful of times a season and never get fully fit. which makes them more injury prone. so they play fewer games each season.

Hasnt really ever done anything but that's why he is in on trial, have seen good players flop in poor teams so the scouts could have seen underlying quality. let's be fair he can't be worse than Dallas has been in preseason.

Alan Smith? Maybe on sky's commentary team but that's the only way he will get on the pitch at Leeds is with a microphone in his hand

Madger Gomes is said to be impressing in pre-season. very good chance he will be going into the first team squad instead of the U-23s.

Report circulating that we've bid for Flint. I know a well-known Leeds journo said he's not a target but I've heard to the contrary and that today we made an official bid. Make of this what you will. Over and out.
