Leeds are considering a bid to sign Middlesbrough striker Emmanuel Latte Lath. Absolutely can't see this happening as also linked with Prem clubs but hey ho a rumour is a rumour.

I think he would be great in our squad.
Alf, you've got a lot of experience with this kind of stuff, can you shed some light on why a player wouldn't come to champo team, who needs a striker, who set up goals and don't finish them and who are heading to the prem (?)
Would having 'promotion' on their football CV not be a big plus?

I like ELL. Would be a top signing. ELL at Elland Road.

Players careers are short and some shortened even more through bad luck and injury. Higher wages and more exposure not to mention fulfilling dreams are all mighty alluring. Players don't want to be in the champ they want to be in the Prem.

Also players listen to their agents and agents get more money for bigger deals and get 'better' reputations to win more clients, so convince their wards to take the bigger deals.
