Morning Aus, I am getting fed up with the management bashing. Pity Victor can't post, taking credit for the scouting and purchasing of Drameh, Greenwood and Gelhardt

Well done Orta, not that it will stop the haters hating.

Possibly Radz reinstating the junior sides, once he had purchased from Cellino, help the progression of Cresswell too. And Macalmont possibly

No matter what the future is bright.

It’ll be no surprise to you (or to the haters) that I agree Orta deserves credit for bringing those lads into our Club. Playing with better quality can only have inspired the homegrown talent like Cresswell. Indeed the injection of additional high quality youngsters enabled our u23s to get promoted to the highest level and therefore compete with the very best academy talent, which can only help in the development of all players in the squad. Let’s not forget also that Orta has overseen the upgrade in Academy infrastructure at Thorp Arch which enabled us to achieve Cateory 1 status.

Much is made by the haters of the influx, in Orta’s first year here, of youngsters to our u23s squad, mainly from Spain. Cellino had decimated our Academy so when Radz took over and brought in Orta, the u23s needed an urgent injection of new talent. Being, in effect, a mid-table Championship side, we were not a huge drawer for talent at other English clubs. Orta had well established contacts at top flight clubs in Spain and elsewhere in Europe. The prospect of playing in England, and therefore more in the shop window for Prem clubs was a drawer for youngsters in Europe, hence the likes Temenuzkov were willing to come here, and to be fair, they complemented the local talent within the Academy and enabled our U23s to perform well in their league.

The primary reason for many of that initial European influx moving on elsewhere is that, while they were good players, their footballing attributes did not fully meet Bielsa’s very specific requirements. Those who regularly watched the u23s were actually surprised when the list of players leaving became known, some had been thought likely to break into the first team in the forthcoming season, and be potential future stars for the Club. That they left is therefore not indicative of a failure on Orta’s part for signing them in the first place, as Bielsa wasn’t the manager when they were brought in.

If the above all make it to be first team regulars in the Prem then I will be first to admit they are great signings.

Mr Hottub did you forget to fill up your hottub today lol?
What happened to your declaration yesterday in your post that you enjoyed the posters having different perspectives ( positive and critical) . no one on here is a 'hater' of Leeds United or anyone associated with it not even Kiko lol

'vive la difference' as you said.

as for Drameh, Summerville, Gelhardt etc yes we have high hopes for them but will Bielsa ever play them is the question.

this Orta debate is now as ridiculous and boring as the KP nonsense last year. give it a rest guys.

Baz, just because I enjoy your contributions its doesn't deflect from you being a "hater". You own words even hint at the fact that you know you are one.

Your mean spirited when it comes to anything you believe is being done differently to what you would prescribe. In my book your a "hater" and I am not particularly interested in what your definition of a hater is.

Hot tub is cooler today, as its a blessing to step in to on such a warm day.


And I note on your Drameh/ Gelhardt comment there is no acknowledgement of their achievement or those that have assisted their rise. Just some snidey little-man comment about "if they make it". Your mean spiritedness shines like a beacon.

Lol
No problem Axe mucka, one man's realism is another hot tubbers delusion

Chin chin.
