Leeds Rumours Mobile

Is anyone else worried Phillips will be sold in January?

Apparently wolves readying a £30m bid.

Someone fill me with confidence that he won't leave please. I'm worried he's attracting too much attention not to attract several different, large, testing January bids.

14 Aug 2019 11:02:48
Nope, we have raised enough to cover FFP this season

He doesn’t want to leave

He wants Bermo to get that tattoo.

14 Aug 2019 11:26:01
If we get offered 30 million and he wants to go, I suspect he will go! We have time to be preparing and scouting other options. Might depend a lot on our league position, how likely promotion is and the size of the new contract offer.

14 Aug 2019 12:21:28
Cant see Wolves paying £30m for Philips. Shall I get some petrol in the car just in case?

You can't have it both ways - either he does well and we will benefit as a team and attracts attention or he plays badly and the team suffer and he goes unnoticed. In this league anyone that does well is likely to be targeted.

If he signs a new contract it is less likely but if he doesn't then we will need to cash in come January or lose money which I cannot see Radz doing.

14 Aug 2019 15:25:08
If we have a bad start to the season and are not in the mix at Christmas, we will see what Phillips wants to do.

15 Aug 2019 12:43:39
yes 6points clear why go . the team that plays will be hero's.

15 Aug 2019 15:35:43
If a contract is not agreed before Jan you know he is going, how else will we pay for Costa. Not down to KP this, Radz raised the bar as far as wages go so he should be one of the top earners. Think if we are in the top two in Jan he will probably get what he wants, he wants to be at Leeds when we get promoted so give him the contract.

16 Aug 2019 10:00:17
I've already told you guys his sale in January is inevitable. Radz won't turn down that kind of wonga especially if there's no signature from KP.

10 Aug 2019 20:33:34
So much for youth getting a chance and as many said would have a big part to play this season. Dallas over shackleton have a feeling Dallas will start a lot of games in other positions over a youngster.

10 Aug 2019 22:47:08
I would like to see Gotts at right back instead of Dallas as i think he deserves to be there. Proper wing back who can defend. To be fair LUFC that was quite a passive post for Wex.

11 Aug 2019 09:32:30
I want to see alioski and Shackleton on either wingback role, they have more speed and will get forward more and create the space we need.

11 Aug 2019 12:46:05
hopefully Luke slots back and returns to form, Bazza LB + Ben +Liam centre, that IMO isvour strongest defensive lineup at the minute. can't wait to see Eddie as i have seen nothing about the lad only what i have read . But he sounds like what we need a attacking rocket.

12 Aug 2019 07:00:59
That’s a bit positive Chris, are you feeling ok?

12 Aug 2019 11:21:50
ha ha, had a run out with herself yesterday morning, so the joy was infectious i said i, d better start typing, ha ha, love to everyone on here 😂😂😂😂.

12 Aug 2019 15:02:14
Chirs Chris if it had that much impact you need to ask her, on our behalf to take one for the team a bit more often!

18 Aug 2019 09:12:45
I think Dallas has started the season well to be fair to him. It's a long season and Bielsa won't be afraid to throw any of the youngsters into the mix when needed. Hopefully we'll stay in the cups long enough to give some of the youngsters plenty of game time so they've ready when needed.

MM.

10 Aug 2019 17:47:48
Hope Eddie is the answer because bamford isn't.

10 Aug 2019 18:33:29
spot on wex pal, but be careful because you will be called a moan or clueless by lots on here who seem. to think everything is rosy . Same old same old soft as brown. stuff. in defence and can't score goals up front.

10 Aug 2019 22:06:00
Double whammy. Bamford is not very good and very unlucky.

09 Aug 2019 08:54:32
According to Angus Kinnear Leeds refused 20mill for KP, plus offers for Forshaw and Ayling tiking it to 35 mill rejected as Bielsa sees them as key to promotion. Doesn't sound like a money grabbing owner milking the club to me. But only my humble opinion.
Shout me down boys.

09 Aug 2019 09:05:05
I’ll back you ox.

09 Aug 2019 09:16:43
exactly.

09 Aug 2019 09:27:39
Completely agree Ox. Add Pablo to that mix of players. Surely if Radz was milking the club at least one of these would've gone. I think they've achieved in this window exactly what they set out to achieve. Trouble makers gone, squad trimmed of players who weren't going to be involved (with FFP in mind) , only quality added and money in the bank. Can't for the life of me agree with the negativity although everyone's entitled to their own opinion, but I'd suggest that we all look at the bigger picture. We have a better squad and are well equipped for promotion with money in the bank if we have to buy a couple of new players in January for the run in.

MM.

09 Aug 2019 10:03:50
Agreed overall, but would have liked another CB.

09 Aug 2019 10:32:27
Great post Ox and great to see the support for your views.

09 Aug 2019 11:23:48
👍🏻🍻👍🏻🍻.

09 Aug 2019 10:06:08
Kinnear is fibbing.

09 Aug 2019 11:58:31
Agree Ox, no complaints about how Radz is running the club. I would rather we are promoted without over spending above what we can afford.
We’re making progress and last season showed what happens when fine tuning is done sensibly.

Onwards and Upwards.

09 Aug 2019 16:13:37
Kinnear also said last summer we were going to be double busy in the transfer window, that went well also didn't it .

09 Aug 2019 21:47:57
Wow, the same negative views from the same negative posters! What a surprise.

10 Aug 2019 06:00:53
We were busy

Also creative with finances ( but not in the dodgy way direby operative)

Don’t think we will spend much in January as MB is never in favour

Money banked hopefully means we don’t need to sell

What happens on the pitch is all that matters now and this division is not easy.

10 Aug 2019 14:28:50
wow midfield general, the same views from the same lot, at least some of us here can see through the brown stuff, happy with today were ya?

10 Aug 2019 14:47:59
we signed 2 players for main squad last summer,
If that's busy other woody then i guess you might just be 1 of those council workers who sit. about all day doing (loads of work )

10 Aug 2019 18:33:14
Chris Chris and whoever gave you a thumbs up, I am a Civil Servant and I do actually do more than a day's work on average. Thou presume too much on the basis of little info re how it actually works, rather than fact. don't beleive all of the myths blossom. I suspect that Radz, Orta and Bielsa know far more than you or I when taking their decisions. ps I would also suggest not getting a government job. Might be a shock to your system cherub.

10 Aug 2019 19:56:20
Chris Chris it’s a marathon not a sprint. A point against one of the better teams is better than a loss, what part of 5 yr plan is it you don’t understand?

10 Aug 2019 22:45:51
I actually have now heard it all @ they think its all over, if you reckon Forest are 1 of the better teams in this league, then its time. to stop this post immediately, because my jaw is sore from laughing at that 1,

10 Aug 2019 22:52:40
So if an opinion is not the same as your opinion that person is a moaner or negative. How does that work exactly, who sets the standards. Its a banter page no need for labeling people. its like the thought police.

10 Aug 2019 23:10:22
bielsasbud, go through the comments its ME who is being called the MOANER.

11 Aug 2019 09:03:58
I know Chris and its a regular thing that anyone who gives an opinion that is not all hunky dory is a negative moaner. Instead of a reply showing why you are wrong in others opinion you just become a moaner. Sorry that's not banter. For me Leeds is my club and if i think some thing is wrong will post it and if some one can prove me wrong fair play but just saying i am negative so i am wrong is silly.

11 Aug 2019 10:29:24
Totally agree BB. Time to give the “labelling” a break.

11 Aug 2019 16:50:49
Right always has you down as a “reasonable” poster!

08 Aug 2019 18:06:57
Clarke oduor has left for Barnsley. Strange one this.

08 Aug 2019 18:19:29
Was very quiet this one, shame as he looked decent but at 20 has he done enough.

08 Aug 2019 18:20:12
Was just going to post the same thing! Hope all of our sales to Barnsley don’t come back to haunt us this season!

08 Aug 2019 18:22:13
Does FFP only apply to Leeds? Crazy that we have sold so many good young prospects. I do hope we have added a sell on clause,

08 Aug 2019 18:25:32
Thought this kid was highly rated by us?
Very strange!

08 Aug 2019 19:01:31
Suppose there is a long line ahead of him at LB

He’s good going forward. Still a lot to learn as a defender

Decent wing back though and quick

Good we can put out two teams at championship level I guess

Barnsley fans are loving this.

09 Aug 2019 09:29:22
Of all the players we have shipped out there's a funny smell about this one. Haha, did you see what I did there? Odour? Funny smell? I'll get my coat.

MM.

09 Aug 2019 11:24:41
Lol MM. 👍🏻.

08 Aug 2019 16:43:34
Looking at Eddie Nketiah he hit goals against Bayern and fiorentina pre season and his goals for the England under age teams like 21 in 25.

08 Aug 2019 17:42:27
Looks and exciting prospect, let's hope he hasn't just come to warm the bench and Bielsa actually plays him. Ian Wright really rates him and thinks Leeds is the ideal loan for him.

08 Aug 2019 15:54:59
Pearce has signed for Wigan on a permanent.

08 Aug 2019 15:51:39
Ryan Nolan and Facundo Colidio deals arte also off. Radz decides that paying for players to actually join the club is too much of a risk and announces that his aim is to sell all of our players and contest with a team entirely made up of loans in future unless we can get youngsters for free and then sell 'em for a fat profit.

08 Aug 2019 18:31:10
Alf totally agree but Kinear recons Roofe and Pontus out and two replacements in White and Nketiah is like for like except we got approx 13m for our two leavers and we got 2 players on loan who if we actually get promotion (and of course I hope we do) these two players will cost us the earth if we decide to keep them.
Personally I would rather have the Nolan kid and spend an extra 5m to get him in.

08 Aug 2019 15:35:20
Nketiah a done deal, great signing. in Nigeria he's known as the Gazelle! Happy days.

08 Aug 2019 15:49:43
Great signing provided he finds his feet quickly. A real talent who knows where the onion bag is.

08 Aug 2019 14:50:07
Yorkshire Pirlo is staying. Best bit of non transfer news yet. Huge sigh of relief and optimistic that our beloved club are showing some real ambition.

ALAW!

MM.

08 Aug 2019 15:35:11
Aus agrees.

08 Aug 2019 15:36:27
And starting talks over a new contract! Bonus!
