What did I tell you? The Leeds way!
Leeds to add RB Daiki Hashioka. Sorry got to go now. Switching to Google?
1.) 28 Jan 2024 11:59:48
There's only one Daiki Hashioka. Well called Leo.
2.) 28 Jan 2024 12:21:58
Leo According to a very new report, this proposed transfer is already off.
3.) 28 Jan 2024 13:49:19
Surely not. Porgs. We only getting 6 in. Not 7 ?.
4.) 28 Jan 2024 15:30:08
Well our team of top notch negotiators are doing great so far.
5.) 28 Jan 2024 18:02:17
Not liking ' the Leeds way '
6.) 28 Jan 2024 18:30:22
Reportedly Benson on his way to join ⚜️⚜️.
7.) 28 Jan 2024 20:02:10
OldBro, you mean the same negotiators that signed Ampadu, Kamara and Gruev for only £17.4m, as well as signing Rodon and Anthony on loan. Hmmmm ?.
8.) 28 Jan 2024 23:19:29
Dill still waiting.
9.) 29 Jan 2024 05:51:40
It's a bit of a fallacy what you're saying. We've negotiated some top deals in the summer, so they're more than capable. I'm expecting something before Thursday.
10.) 29 Jan 2024 07:47:25
Off to luton apparently.
11.) 29 Jan 2024 09:57:14
We are all expecting or should I say hoping.
18 Jan 2024 18:32:21
It's gone awfully quite on Kai Wagner. Anybody any news.
1.) 18 Jan 2024 20:02:52
I thought he'd re signed for Philly?
2.) 18 Jan 2024 20:27:06
He is TRASH!
3.) 19 Jan 2024 05:59:39
What ???says.
03 Jan 2024 13:01:52
The name at the top of the LB list seems to be Josh Doig but can anyone tell me the state of some of the other names that have been mentioned in the past.
1.) 03 Jan 2024 14:24:42
I believe Kai Wagner is now out of contract so would be available for free?
01 Jun 2022 16:44:15
With all this talk of needing a new CF, Ben Brereton Diaz being the latest, does this mean that Joffy is pushed down to No3 choice?
In all the names banded about no one has resurrected Dwight Gayle?
1.) 01 Jun 2022 20:04:26
Personally I’d go after that Beckford lad, Orta closely monitoring a couple of wingers as well kid called Maxwell Gradel and Hadya sakho. 😂😂😂😂.
22 Jan 2022 20:13:17
Not directly connected to Leeds but there is a tenious link. Can I ask (poss Eds) if Derby are wound up, is it immediate or will they complete the season. If it is immediate what happens to the players if it is in Feb. Can they go anywhere as "unattached"?
His name seems to have gone quite lately but are we still interested in Louie Sibley?
By the way when is the decision due?
{Ed002's Note - They would not be Free Agents without the Football League agreeing the cancellation of contracts and clubs cannot take players on who were contracted during the whole of the previous window. Further complication is squad size.}
1.) 23 Jan 2022 08:27:58
Interesting questions Leodis, and I would add another question; what would happen to points gained from Derby? Would everyone’s points just be zeroed? And how can the league ensure that it’s fair, given some sides have beaten them, some have lost, and others (obviously) drawn. It could have a big impact on promotion, play offs, and relegation alike!? #verycomplicated.

yes i know, a win is a win but the word disappointing comes to mind. Firstly in the rather negative lineup with not one young gun in the team or on the bench. How will you ever know what a gem you have until you test it? Whilst nobody let us down, nobody cemented his place. Only, really Solomon shone. Against two or three that disappointed. For me the only thing to come out of yesterdays match was to underline our need for a clinical poacher/ finisher together with a creative (Pablo) AM.
1.) 12 Jan 2025 11:43:44
Did someone mention King Pablo ❤️?. aww those were the days. entertaining football.
11 Jan 2025 16:58:31
Just seen the line up. Can see he is going out for the win but for me. Not as adventurous as I would have picked. Not even an adventurous bench.
An opportunity missed/.
1.) 11 Jan 2025 17:35:30
Yep agree leo.
11 Jan 2025 09:56:45
Well here goes. My team for today -
Darlow
Schmidt-Debayo-Gman-Byram
Tanaka-Amps
Ramazanu-Rothwell-Gnonto
Joseph
Its only Harrogate and its only the cup. let's see how we go and if we can put on Chambers and/ or Crew at half time. We need to find out what the young guns are like and this game is pretty much a free hit.
Also I would like to see How Rothwell fares further forward.
Lastly I would take Ao aside and say - "I want to see your 30 yard passes and 40 yard goals. don't be afraid to spray them about. Have a go and if successfull you can have a rest after 45mins".
PS just hope its not called off after all my carefull planning.
1.) 11 Jan 2025 11:13:34
Spot on post leodis. Agree 100% with your line up and AO instructions.
07 Jan 2025 13:53:53
Whilst I believe we will recruit this month, it will not be easy. Even though we have been linked with several players very, very, few have expressed a desire to join a Championship side, and therin lies the problem. What league are we buying for? Can we attract a Prem quality player, with no guarantee of promotion? Will a slightly lesser player have immediate impact? What gap do we fill first? Whoever we bring in his club will want top dollar and he will want financially persuading. All of which will be a millstone if we do not achieve the holy grail.
For all our posts imploring action this is one best left to the people in the know. I have always said that recruitment is always a gamble but at this time with this club it is one almighty dice roll.
It is certainly a strange one that we have a team with top goals, mean defence, at the top of the league and yet we all agree that we need strengthening.
Lets all light a candle and say a prayer that "the powers that be" a) do not rush it b) do not panic and c) do not leave it to the last minute and that D) get someone in who will bring some magic dust and get us over the line. MOT.
1.) 07 Jan 2025 14:19:28
In my view Leeds have two choices; spend little to no money and hope we're still good enough as a team when the window closes.
Throw 140 million at players to ensure we are good enough as a team when the window closes.
To me, it's worth the Prem money to splash out a little bit. But I would clean house.
Gnonto, Bamford, Geldhardt, struijk (only if the 20 mil is true) , meslier and any other bench warmers, get rid.
Then buy a new team. Buy a premier league team now and we will be promoted. Simples.
2.) 07 Jan 2025 14:54:23
You asking a lot there MOTagain.
3.) 07 Jan 2025 22:41:04
And if we're not Mo?
02 Jan 2025 13:11:09
Can't understand Villas reluctance to let Buendia get some game time. They even have one of, at least, 3 routes to go down. Either sell outright, Loan to buy or if they do not want to lose hime then just a straight loan. He is not playing now so an asset gets playing time and comes back to them ready for next season, Win/ win. what's the problem?
1.) 02 Jan 2025 14:18:31
Also depends on what player and his agent want
Maybe Buendia is more than happy enough
picking up his huge salary
, looking after his body
and just waiting for his possible chance for EPL game time at Villa
Buendia NOT keen on dropping down to Champo for 5 months.
2.) 02 Jan 2025 14:20:39
Leo Loan won't happen for following reasons:
1. He's reported as not wanting to play Championship football even for a short period.
2. He reportedly earns £75k weekly wage.
3. Reportedly Villa would not contribute to his weekly wage whilst he's on loan.
No doubting his quality but don't see this happening.
3.) 02 Jan 2025 16:27:11
Leo, We missed our chance to get a quality ACM in the Summer. We have no say in other clubs players in January. Nobody else to scrutinize but ourselves. IMO.
4.) 02 Jan 2025 21:07:53
Well said Hooksie 100%.
5.) 03 Jan 2025 00:32:13
What we need is players who WANT to play for us and are not just using us as a stepping stone, Joe Rothwell is the perfect example, he’s a Bournemouth player but plays with his heart and runs his legs off for Leeds United unlike some loans we’ve had in the past. It’s alright having the skill, the big wages and the accolades but most importantly what we want from them is the desire, the heart and the I WANT to play for Leeds United. Not hard is it lads ??.
12 Jan 2023 16:33:38
Personally I am still awaiting Red Bull?
08 Sep 2022 13:37:40
He sounds top notch but my only misgiving would be; if he is so good why not a starter for 11th placed Fiorentina. Surely they must see his exponential growth.
I hope you are right and he is a gem waiting to be found, we could do with another Raphina. Law of averages says that somewhere out there is some young lad, with it all, waiting to be discovered.
05 May 2022 10:01:22
It may be a bit Rocky when he is here?
14 Dec 2021 21:04:22
It so annoys me to read we are after a new striker when we have a 30 goal a season striker in the U23s that doesn't get played?
14 Aug 2021 16:06:56
A good thought but we are leaking in the middle not on the wing.
14 Jan 2025 15:46:23
Obviously there is Thomas Brolin who left us to become a legend at McDonalds.
09 Jan 2025 16:30:09
I will only read a past tense headline beginning "Leeds have signed" all this speculation is doing my mental head in It must be over15 names now that are heading to Elland Road. JFDI!
07 Jan 2025 22:41:04
And if we're not Mo?
07 Jan 2025 14:12:43
Totally agree Ben, as a GK Mes is quite good the main area of concern, for me, is his decision making. For straightforward corners he elects to punch not catch yet for a simple looping shot he tries to catch not palm over. As for his being caught in no mans land and being lobbed well that has happened to many a keeper and before I whip him I must remember all the times he has saved us in one on ones by rushing out. There are many things a coach can amend, hopefully this is one. With that and experience I think we will see a future France GK. Wether that is with us, that is yet to be seen.
06 Jan 2025 19:36:35
Good Post Ed025. Now implement it!
{Ed025's Note - i will when i am editing the Leeds pages Leodis, but there are more than me that edit those pages mate, but i will leave a note for the others..
