They hate all the players that left them when they went down.

The fact this guy looks like he may be returning to them now they're back up has compounded it.

They really do think they're the greatest club in the land and players should be honoured and forgo their own career for them

Just football fans being fickle. Gnonto refused to play for them and went AWOL and they love him again now.

Unlikely to be that way for Harrison because he's not a particularly good footballer.

So, about that Gnonto lad........

Link to Franculino Djú...

I assume it's because he was 1 of their better players and has ended up on loan for 2 years rather than trying to get them promoted. That's down to the daft contract the club agreed to though

That right hand side yet again is awful.

Can’t see moyes picking the young lad at left back so that’s going to be another square peg in the team for Leeds.

To get to this point with not one right back or right winger in the team is a massive failure.

It's an absolute disgrace that nothing has been done about the right hand side defensively and offensively.
Five years we have been waiting for a decent right back instead of make do's.
Yet here we are just over a week away from starting and fuck all again
It's shameful.

They definitely tried to address it with Patterson, I think the plan would be to get him in, nice little loan for his first full season and get him ready after about 18 months. Unfortunately injuries to him meant it wouldn't happen then injuries to others and a poor squad meant we needed him to bulk out the squad and his development's been fucked. The intention was there but it hasn't worked and we're now back to square one. After all these years there's a chance Seamus starts next week.

Yeah it's easy to forget we got patterson in because it just hasn't worked out for one reason or another.
It just feels like forever we have been making do there.
It's such an important position and it's been holding us back.
Every window is like groundhog day, window opens, you hope that an decent established right back is got in, but it never happens.
And here we are again, for the umpteenth time nothings changed.

There was a brief split second where it felt like Benitez had pulled a master stroke in bringing in two full backs and sorting a pretty big hole in the finances (and PSR calculations) with the sale of Digne.

Obviously it was Benitez though, so it all turned to shit pretty quickly

Does seem that one of the 5 or 6 we want is a forward given some of these links floating about.

Getting a little bit of a feeling Moyes isn’t totally convinced by either of our options as it stands for various reasons.

I am somewhat surprised we’ve not been linked with Vardy at this point.

I would be surprised if a lad playing in Denmark would be what Moyes wants though.

That Franculino scored today for FC Midtjyland.

Don't know an awful lot about him tbh but with our signings supposedly being more data driven, or so they say, they may have spotted something.

Not sure how this lad comes in and is expected to contribute more than Barry or Beto though.

Probably needs first team minutes so unless Beto is on the way out or we're buying him and sending him on loan I can't see it.

If anything we need a veteran forward to play 3rd choice so Chermiti can actually get first team minutes.

I think he wants options as much as anything, and id imagine from what we've seen in the preseason, he doesn't to see chermiti as that.

I'd expect any striker we bought in at this stage to be mid twenties and ready to go without the need of half a season on loan at Stoke.
