Typically Leedsy that Farke supposedly wanted Matt O’Riley at Leeds from Celtic, and now that O’Riley has left for the apparently bright lights of Brighton, Celtic are reportedly interested in bringing in Mat Bogusz (rumoured for up to £8m) - who of course we let go for less than £1m not so long ago.

I do see your point mate but please remember tweeds work brilliantly under 49ers and farke truth is no one knows who we really want, it’s all paper talk dribble.
27 Aug 2024 09:59:12
Totally agree
Close stable doors after horsey has left building .
Come Friday we won't have a relatively big signing I feel, just a few lesser hopefuls is what we will get.

O'Riley far too good for Champo. never a goer. provably wishful thinking clivkvait links
Boguzs however was amother foreseeable clanger red flag in not playing him
and then ridiculously selling him for a pittance ( rather than loaning again ) by you know who's in Leeds hierarchies.

Yet again Baz, he was not ready to play tho Baz, was he!? Nothing like!
We should tho have had a buy back clause on all of “the ones for the future”, if for nowt else but to make more money!
I do agree however on O’Riley. He was never coming to us this season. Two seasons ago, maybe, but not now, and at £30m.

Didn't he go to Ibiza in the Segunda and was pretty average tho? He's only started playing well recently in the MLS.
27 Aug 2024 13:09:48
Bright . who says he wasn't ready . never given a chance
Tyler Roberts was : never ready" imo but given over 100 plus appearance chances.
27 Aug 2024 14:09:19
I'd say going to a first division Spanish side and not being a first team regular there would say he probably wasn't ready, Baz.
27 Aug 2024 14:23:52
Preferred him Dill over 108 LUFC appearances 1 goal Tyler Roberts
That's one of the points
And look at boths career progression. League 1 TR . MLS significant goalscoring mf MB.
27 Aug 2024 14:28:35
Dill stop injecting logic into Baz's arguments.
27 Aug 2024 14:37:45
You might have preferred him Baz, without knowing that he wasn’t ready, would have played him, and we’d have been worse off. That’s why you’ve never run a team. And thankfully, no input at Leeds. Like Dill says, in his first season in Spain, he was average at best.
27 Aug 2024 14:47:52
Don't worry Alfonzo Cuppa
Dill isn't. Dill be a bit below par today ?
Still highly rate him though ( Dill that is. not Tyler obviously) ?.
27 Aug 2024 14:50:24
Average at best MB .
is still a whole lot better than Tyler Roberts, Baby Shack and Adam Forshaw ya Brighteth.
27 Aug 2024 15:09:19
Love it baz o have never agreed with your posts more
Roberts given 100 plus caps but hopeless yet boxutus and many others never given ago… agree and think it’s a great post… and who do we both blame… the useless manager (great coach) beilsa.
27 Aug 2024 16:11:59
Yep Berma . TR definitely one of Bielsa mistakes.
27 Aug 2024 16:15:03
Is better now than Tyro was? Maybe, yes. Then, no, not at all.
27 Aug 2024 16:42:14
This is pretty the same convo we had about Leif. Players aren't deemed good enough for the first team at that time. They need to go somewhere if they aren't being played. They drop down a level and get some valuable experience and progress as a player and are then capable of playing at higher level.
It's pretty simple how it works and it happens a lot.
You can't start saying it was a bad decision when we're four seasons down the line and the player in question has had a couple of average seasons and one decent one in a league that's below the level we're currently at.
27 Aug 2024 16:42:53
Never rated Roberts fwiw, but he was better than Bogusz when they were both at Leeds.
27 Aug 2024 17:48:39
100% on both replies Dill!
