Spuds signing Kudus hopefully improves the likelihood of Manor returning.

I totally get people’s frustrations but we cannot truly assess whether the window has been a success until it’s closed.

Sunderland appear to to have done very well but have paid, top, top prices for their targets and that does not provide any greater assurances with regards them being successful.

Our own signings to date look strong and we certainly needed that additional physicality in the team, but again, until they play we’re not sure just how good they will be, but that was the case with Rothwell and AO so we’re not too bad at this.

Allegedly the club said signing a keeper not as urgent as outfield players as they take less time to learn the new systems of play?

I personally believe our new keeper is our most important signing and we should not hesitate to spend top, top money here, something we seldom do for this position at the club.

It’s incredibly difficult for promoted teams with the likes of Chelsea selling their women’s team (to themselves) for £200 million! In order to circumvent PSR.

All whilst the EPL board do nothing to address for fear of enraging any of their top six commercial jewels, so it’s definitely not a level playing field and we have to do the best we can, with the funds available and that may take longer.

I believe outgoing players will go down to the last few days of the transfer window as they will be predominantly lower league sales, but necessary all the same for PSR .

Personally, I recognise our recruitment both permanent and loans has been very very good over the previous 18 months so I’m continuing to bite my nails and trust Alf and Lad2 will pull some rabbits.

There will be plenty enough time for the autopsy when the window closes and it’s going to be an exciting season either way.

Cracking post Class, completely agree. Don't forget the need for home grown, maybe part of the reason for Sam getting an extension and maybe keeping Bambam.

Nice one Class. The way Chelsea and Co are allowed to bend the rules is a total disgrace and a stain on the game.

Offer 20 for stach and get it done. The longer it goes on the less likely it happens.

11 Jul 2025 09:29:25
Agree. We need someone like that to break up attacks. Maybe we offer more on add ons such as staying up to sweeten the deal. we don't lose on that basis.

Damn right, need to stop messing around and get some of these bigger players signed before they get better offers.

Any of you actually seen him play (notnon youtube) ?
I haven't so wouldn't be able to comment on a good value.

Have a mate who saw 5/ 6 of his games last year and he reckons that the player is rubbish! He's praying we don't sign Stach.

Agree1 0Disagree

11 Jul 2025 13:14:39
I haven't seen his games, only clips, but that's often the case with the players we're linked with.
However, his stats look good and the articles about him suggest that he's more at home at Hoffenheim where they play him as an out and out defender, no 6 or 8, rather than the more advanced role he had at Mainz.

Interesting Alf, we certainly bought a few lemons before but as I mentioned don't recall ever seeing him play. Time will tell I guess.

The further into the window the more deals get done as time is running down.
As other clubs bring in their targets you also get more players becoming available

This we need six more
Keeper
2 x cm
No.10
Winger and Striker.

If we can get one in a week well be fine

We also have 10 to ship out.

Agree4 0Disagree

11 Jul 2025 01:52:27
Realistically I can only see another 3 coming in. Gk, mid and striker.
Def need to start shipping out though. None gone so far.

Wober?

If we do bring in only three then I can't see us spending this rumoured £120 to £150m unless we go really big on a striker and CM. I would like some more cover at FB and I think there's more chance of Solomon coming back now that Spurs are spending on wide men. They're over run with them.

11 Jul 2025 08:21:48
Good point Dunelm. i'm all for the return of Solomon.

Our recruitment under the 49ers smacks of American ownership. Boehly and the Wrexham pair aside they all operate the same model. It works for Liverpool and to a lesser extent Arsenal because they're nailed on top end of prem so can turn the heads of players even if smaller clubs are prepared to pay bigger fees. It hasn't worked anywhere else in England that I know of. The reality is you have to pay over the odds in our position because your competiting against the other promoted sides plus a couple thst look risky like Wolves or West Ham. I get the Ridsdale argument and I'm old enough to have lived through that but times have changed. It's only 10 July and I hope I'm made to eat my words but I see us ending up a yoyo club at this rate. I'm not saying put it all on black but we have to gamble a bit.

Are you prepared for the consequences if the gamble does not come off?

I'm getting a bad vibe too about our recruitment team effing it up and missing out on all our main targets and being left with a very average and underwhelming crop of new signings if Kalvin Philips, Sargent, Gunn and Bota are what we end up with then I think we're screwed.

I did worry that new players would not be that excited about playing under Farke and why a bigger name in charge would have been a more attractive pull.

Anyway I hope like all of us our fears are not realised and we end up signing the likes of Perri, Muniz, El Aynaoui and McAtee on top of what we have already.

Agree3 0Disagree

10 Jul 2025 22:11:45
I'd say the evidence of our spending says the exact opposite.
We won't pay over the odds and we've got a few players at below the expected price.

Similar model to Brighton and Bournemouth - not doing too badly there.

Drawing towards the end of another week with no signings!

As corky said in a reply earlier, there is realism.

Rumour wise we’ve gone from Paixoa, Perri and Muniz to Sergant, Boga and Gunn!

Come now, that’s an insane drop in expectations.

I really want to believe in the recruitment but they have given us nothing to rekindle that belief.

Are they just managing the fans expectations with these tier 3 rumours.

First pre season game is what 9 days away.

We still have Gyabi, Greenwood, joffy, Meslier, Harrison and Bamford stinking the place out.

We have signed a player this week, so give it a rest. Starting to sound a lot like Baz have you sneaked under the radar? MOT.

"Stinking" is a bit strong for some of them, Dave?

Agree2 0Disagree

10 Jul 2025 21:37:49
Good point Dave. Why are we hearing zero rumours of the above players being moved on?
Throw in Gruev too even though I think he’s half decent but if we’re looking at two more CMs he’s obviously surplus.
That’s roughly 30 million for those seven players.

We are a massive club in stature but not in nature. We can't attract the names being bandied about due to being recently promoted, if we were relegated (which i don't think we will) would these so called bigger players want to play in the Champo? Absolutely not so relegation clauses would probably be inserted like last time.

My guess is we buy players who give us a chance of staying up without the potential for imploding should we get relegated then buy more known players when we survive and build the foundations for the future.

Lastly i think we will make a couple of marquee signings in the positions were they will make a difference. We all know what these are.

Keep the faith.

Agree2 0Disagree

11 Jul 2025 09:32:17
maybe what chippenham said, but
with these signings why not use a bit of nous here when signing a player, for example, no relegation clauses, meaning if they really don't want to play in champo then maybe just maybe they will try their socks off not to be relegated.
as we all know there is not a lot of loyalty these days, give a player a clause, he thinks, well if we go down i can always go somewhere else, on ther other hand, stay up and impress maybe a good profit to be made.
just a thought.

If they get Angus Gunn- we may aswell give up now.

I totally agree long lost fan, they chucking all these spending about yet brought in five players for 30 million, this ain’t going to keep us in league they just hoping we bring in some nice players on cheap then sell them on like last year 120 million, this underwood geezer I don’t think he s got orta s knowledge although any his self pulling out of certain deals does nt won't to know Leeds can’t possibly stay in premiership with what they doing at the moment.

Blimey, seems Wet Spam supporters are in melt down over their lack of investment, especially considering they just sold Kudus to Spuds. Sounds like none of the £100 million from selling Rice has been reinvested either. A club in turmoil methinks.

Agree3 0Disagree

10 Jul 2025 21:15:56
Well vidlufc, that’s mental but Leeds are struggling just the same I think with this underwood gent? He has a chance to sign another quality player for Leeds diouf, he played in win over England at the back and killed saka, West Ham have gone in for him but got no money to spend until kudas money arrives so Leeds who are also interested in him could jump the queue and sign him for 20 million but, mr underwood as walked away from that saying to dear but diouf can play in 4 positions so well worth it could be at Leeds years but pulled out.

Agree1 0Disagree

10 Jul 2025 23:14:48

Lonstaff - £15m, good price for a good player with plenty of prem experience. I would buy.

Garbage pull well away from that one please Leeds did nt play no football hardly last year couldn’t get in the team, when Leeds first went in for him it was for 8/ 10 million now Newcastle want 15 million stay in the house mate there s better 15 million buys out there Leeds don’t want to be held ransom to anybody were Leeds Utd, would nt buy any prefer amps and tanaka, if its not better don t buy same with mentioned willock, like Corkey is saying don’t see teams flooding in to buy them.
