said the same on Sunday but it won't be raya. spurs bound I think. £35m for meslier and bring in a good experienced keeper for £15m to £20m.
also gnoto will go for around £80m I guess.
2 quality fullbacks, striker and creative midfielder needed

Anyone heard anything about a bust up in the Leeds dressing room at HT on Sunday? Between Roca and McKennie.

If we stay up Gnonto won’t be going anywhere. We need to build around him not sell our best players. The niners will take the club forward.

Rumours on social media. I’ve seen them. Apparently security guard saw it. Not seen any credible proof though. Would explain the poor second half though… who knows. It won’t be the first bust up at a football club and won’t be the last, happens all the time. Not seen smyth or hay say anything about it yet

I heard it was Roca and Ayling

why he is criticism proof I've no idea

That’s not correct. Orta found him, put him to Bielsa and Bielsa gave the nod to sign him. A mistake by both granted but it’s not on Bielsa why we signed him. Orta was the chief instigator and negotiator. It’s criminal how they handled it. Cost the club a fortune

yes OK but the manager always had the final say. isn't that the DOF job to recommend players?

The club as a whole has been mis managed for some time now and fingers crossed the 49`s can rectify this.
Paying over the odds for players has been the norm for years at Leeds with the odd exception Raphina, Gnonto and Wober springs to mind.
Isn`t Messlier the second worse keeper in the league for expected saves against shots and the worse for finding his man when kicking the ball.
Great prospect without doubt but similar to Rutter we need experience to keep us up not projects.
