Just wondering how the Wales game tonight might affect the confidence of our Welsh team players, Rodon, Ampadu and James.
It can’t go without mentioning when they lost, I think it was the euro qualification in March 24’ their form dropped when we were gunning for promotion, especially James who missed their penalty.

On the subject of Wales, will Leeds be having a second go at trying to sign Harry Wilson from Fulham in the January transfer window?

I think most Leeds fans will be screaming for a striker but I don’t think we’ll be in the market for both striker and winger for obvious financial reasons.
Due to our injury depleted wingers this season, in my opinion it would be way too risky to not invest in a winger.
Harry Wilson would appear to be the likelier target I imagine in January.

Get large back and buy a striker. Sell James and buy a winger. Simple.

Ramazani hasn’t played enough football for a long time, plus there’s his recent injury.
I seriously doubt he will be of any use to us in the Premiership.
I’m beginning to believe he was a poor buy in the transfer market, I think they hoped he would push on and develop into a better player but it seems he has remained static.

I hope James doesn't get injured

Have a clear out in January of players we don't need. If Farke was going to bench Tanaka like he has, we may as well have flogged him in summer when his stock was sky high.

So how’s James doing for us this season opti. In the form of his life or injured or useless.

I agree Aus, the only glimmer of hope I can see for Dan James as he has been below Premiership standards with us and other clubs, is that he has visibly improved his game in the last two seasons, but that was in the Championship.
Of course also his injuries can be a issue.

I think we should cash in on bourn. Struik. Mez obviously. James. Dcl obviously and if we ain’t going to play him piroe too. got to be what 60 mill there maybe.

MoT Farke had Tanaka on the bench for the first 10 or so games last season with Ampadu and Gruev as his first choice midfield pairing, then they both got crocked together, and Tanaka and Rothwell played every game for a couple of months. If sonething similar were to happen this season selling Tanaka would turn out to be a big mistake.

Hopefully no injuries, and a confidence boost after a big win. James got on the score sheet as well.

I hesitate to say this given the rabidly anti English attitude of a large number of Jocks and Taffys, but both Scotland and Wales were really good tonight. Like Craig Bellamy said after the Wales game I'd like to see all the home nations go to the World Cup, but sadly Northern Ireland are out now, and Wales still have work to do.

Such a shame we didn’t nick Wilson on deadline day, he looked fantastic last night, admittedly it was against very poor opposition but he has a mercurial left foot and would be a significant improvement on what we currently have.

Zero chance unfortunately based on his recent performances for club and country.

{Ed001's Note - he is very lazy in club football.}

I was going to post similar, but you've summed it up nicely JR!

Lazy? Really surprised and wasn’t aware Ed, to be honest, I’ve seen very little of him other than highlights which obviously does not provide the full picture.

But placing a ball where he aims it makes him an attractive player for our team just now, as we are particularly weak with dead ball situations.

{Ed001's Note - I have watched him since he was in Liverpool's academy, he doesn't work hard at all. You are right though, his dead balls are excellent. If only he actually put the graft in, he would have had a chance of making it at Liverpool. It is sad that he has learnt nothing. If you could get work rate out of him, then he would be a very useful player for you, but I have a feeling you would just end up frustrated in 9 games and then love him for the 1 he provides something brilliant, then back to being frustrated by him!}
