still hoping for a centre mid, we are not blessed with options there after Klich and Phillips.

Yeah agree. Bielsa wants more quality out wide and more depth that’s why going for Raphina. He may see him as being able to play 10 also maybe I don’t know but I believe we want a mid too.

Real shame we missed out on Barkley who is probably just what we need in midfield alongside Phillips and Klich.

Raphinna on his way for a medical, he has a French passport so there should be no problem with a work permit.
If it gets done then I wouldn't be surprised to see Bielsa try him in the 10 role. I think he got man of the match yesterday and scored, so he looks the business.

What a weekend it’s been. West Brom, Fulham and SHU all losing, Man U and Liverpool getting stuffed. Hopefully a successful transfer deadline day to top it al off.

Rhinos getting to the cup final too

Funny really Man U fans taking the mick out of City fans after their 5-2 loss.
Liverpool fans taking the mick out of Man U when they got thumped only for Liverpool to share a similar agony later.
Goes to show don`t gloat too quickly as it might come back to bite you.

Raffinha confirmed, 4 year deal!

Allegedly a good signing but thought we might have brought in some experience in midfield as well as this one.
Maybe we will get someone from the Championship.
