No way should we be paying £8m for James Justin, most Leeds fans would say he's barely a championship player now.

Would also hate to see Soucek here. We need someone who can sit and play as a 6, that's not his game and he's another who would have no value in a couple years.

Fuck off with Soucek Moyes

Thought it would never happen but there you go.

Grim signing if it happens.

I don't particularly want Soucek (because of his age and cost, I'm fine with his ability) but he absolutely is a DM and has been for 90% of his career.

Just seen that, too. I had him down as a pedestrian 8.

Imagine we got Souceck from them and they used that Dough to get Hackney.



Surely we should just be in for Hackney if this is the case

Good on West Ham for turning it down.

West Ham shouldn't let us bully them, they should stand their ground and tell us to fuck off imo

Buy a proper midfielder pls

Improves our midfield, yes.
Age and cost, no.

Unsurprising, a Moyes man

Not at all a position we need to fill, so probably another of Moyes' fake leaks to see who's releasing information at the club.

Can't we just go and get a decent DM who will break up play and pass the ball 10 yards to Grealish or Ndiaye or Hall. We don't need Soucek.

I’d rather other options, I still hoped we’d go back for Rohl but it would depend a bit on price wouldn’t it ? Like if we bid 5 mil or something and get a few years out of him…it’s not a totally egregious signing?

It feels like our transfers are a bit one for Moyes now and one work in progress for the future.

Would be disappointed with Soucek now, we need a possession builder in DM.

Although Soucek, O'Brien, Branthwaite/Keane, Tarkowski, Barry would be a frightening box from the hundreds of free kicks and corners Grealish wins.
