*Latest transfer gossip...

we can't afford to lose viduka and the club have said that he's definitely not for sale - but we've heard that before....

it'll be interesting to see who reid is able to bring in to strengthen the squad to paper over some of the cracks because things are getting desperate....

to ensure our premiership survival we need to bring in a striker, a couple of midfielders (esp somebody who can boss the centre) a left back and a centre back - but where's the money going to come from?

so far the only player who looks like he might be on his way to elland road is julian gray from crystal palace....

we've got a few coming through the ranks but whether or not they're good enough for the premiership is anyone's guess. james milner certainly looks very promising and there should be plenty of opportunitites for him and the rest of da yoof to get some first team experience next season.

I'd speak in hushed tones if I was you - there are probably a few lines still dangling the way of Elland Road...
 
Leeds United are apparently looking to sign Edmilson from Lyon on a year's loan and are also interested in Hidetoshi Nakata, who currently plays for Parma. signing a Japanese player strikes me as a good idea for a club with huge debts because of the potential revenue from shirt sales/tv etc in the far east. I wonder if we'll also start getting linked with Korean and Chinese players soon.... ;)

meanwhile newcastle have renewed their interest in life-long toon fan michael bridges.... :(
 
errr jon arne riise. why the hell would liverpool need a left back????

not to mention cover in diara, craagher, and vignal


dave
 
Riise is great going forward, but he's not the greatest defender imo. He can play midfield which gives options.

Although Carra did well in the treble season at left back, he's more of a right back.

Vignal is shit.

Diarra? Who he?

£7m is a lot of money though and I think it would be better spent on Boumsong, so he can play alongside Henchoz at the back.
 
"the move is unlikely to appease Leeds fans"

just when you think it can't get any worse we try to sign a poor man's lee bowyer from chelsea.... :(

*sticks more pins in voodoo doll of peter ridsdale*
 
Sympathies to all Leeds fans. I think it's appalling the way you lot have been treated.

It's terrible that you lot are run by a bunch of twats who haven't got a clue.

:mad:

Ben thatcher has signed for 3 years.. that's singing number 8.. and apparently signing number 9 is on the way tomorrow.. take your pic from:

Zamora
Cort
Speed

so that probably means it's none of them..
 
yeah, craig hignett.. guess the money spurs got for thatcher allowed them to get zamora.. 9 signings.. quite pleased with all of them.. well done micky!

keep your fingers crossed mate .... That would be 8.5 of the 10 we are still supposed to be short of, possibly 1 more out the door after Sincs , Hutchisom maybe , but as we stand today I feel very confi of a quick return to the Prem.
Assuming we are not going to buy anyone we will see a few youngsters getting squad numbers this season ,

I really think Joey will stay til Christmas ...... shit its hard to type with my fingers crossed !

C`mon you Irons ......
 
bywater has signed on for another year by the way so he have an allright reserve keeper.

We have a lot of youngsters coming through.

But i reckon we are going to need a left back, a midfielder and a striker for next season still.


does the 10million in debt take account for glenn johnsons transfer???? Im sure its been at 10million for ages now.


dave
 
assuming we lose Sinclair our 1st team midfield are Cole , Carrick , Noble (who we signed from the Arse as England u21) Hutchison , Lomas and Mcmahon ( ? ) so yep weprobably do need one more. .
Brevett was good last season and I dont know what cover we have on the left from the youngsters.
Losing Johnson means Schemmel must come back to form or that pratt Dailly is likely to play again.
Ferdinand junior has a squad number at the back as does Sofiane to play with Defoe and Kanoute , its gonna be a tight ship but lets hope the young blood provide the thrills.

As i understood it we had to raise 10 mill flat and after that evrything raised could be spent .

Kanoute and Cole both say they happy to stay on the website this morning ( but they would wouldnt they )
