Guest Thor Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Celtic have been in talks with man city for months about Roberts, apparently Celtic aren't sure about paying the £3,000,000 man city want for him, gibbo needs to get his cheque book out Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder what will actually happen with bamford. There's no way he will start for them looking at all the chances he has missed this season. They definitely won't put up with his conversion rate when they only create a few chances a game Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Thor Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 I'm very excited to see what Neil does with this squad, I think there will be some surprises, rumours going round are that gibbo is willing to do some shopping this summer/autumn Link to post Share on other sites

But I also think Coulson is a good left wing back. I dont want Douglas. If we are to sign a left back I would rather it be a propee left back who can play v well in a back 4 which Douglas struggles with. Depends how Warnock (if it is him) wants to play, and he doesn't seem to fancy Coulson too much. Douglas was instrumental in getting Wolves to the Premiership. Times passed since then, aye - but having him and Coulson as options at LWB would mean we were well stocked and sorted down that flank, with both able to play a more advanced midfield role too. I don't see any left footed FBs in the Leeds squad who are more on the defensive side of the position? Link to post Share on other sites
sambaDTR 260 Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Not in the know but, if we do stay up, then I think this summer will be a time of Gibbo investing again, especially if Warnock stays. There will be a freeing up of high wage earners; Gestede, Ayala, Shotton, Clayton plus the three year “Profitability and sustainability rules“ will hopefully have passed for us. We must get Roberts (the Championship Juninho) as our first signing, hopefully on a permanent. I agree with the Fry for Gibbo transfer if all parties are happy. We also must get a proper Centre Forward who can hold the ball up and score goals. Fletcher could be backup. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Fletcher has to be the main man next season with someone who can hold up play, he's been one of two or three who can hold their heads high this season. Link to post Share on other sites
sambaDTR 260 Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 (edited) Maybe another Fletcher (Steven) might be a short term signing to get us in the playoffs? Link to post Share on other sites

I dont see us signing anymore CMs under Warnock unless we self someone even with Clayton going. Got Paddy Wing and Even Tav in reserve Link to post Share on other sites

With the likelihood of one, possibly two big money sales in the transfer window, let´s just hope we are in a position to spend some of the money too. I would love to see Gibson and Reach back. What do you guys reckon they would cost? If Roberts is 3, I would guess a similar fee for Reach. Link to post Share on other sites
TLF10 4,497 Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Djed Spence is increasingly being linked with a move away to the PL. What would people want for him? I think £10m or above and its a good deal (with the standard sell on clause that are inserted these days) Link to post Share on other sites

nunthorpered 1,922 Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 I think we need some experienced heads in. Hard to do but need to import a captain 1 Link to post Share on other sites
