Read on the BBC gossip pages (Football Insider) that we are looking to sign Diomande (which is great) , but as a replacement for Rondon!
Please tell me this is malicious gossip, that man is a rock that give 200% every game.
1.) 16 Jun 2026 10:06:18
No sale Rodon. For less than 80 mill. Simple.
2.) 16 Jun 2026 13:30:28
Completely agent-led story, nothing in it.
Multiple other parts of the team need improving before we sign a £40m centre-back.
3.) 16 Jun 2026 13:45:11
Not heard of the Rodon angle myself. More expecting it to be Struijk as he enters the final year of his contract.
31 Aug 2023 21:26:01
Blimey Charlie, Kamara has finally signed a 4 year deal. It’s been a busy day.
Maybe another addition tomorrow, hopefully a LB, but that seems unlikely, but let’s see.
I think as a whole, this has been the most productive transfer window I can remember for some time.
If we can keep Sini, Willy and Jimmy and maybe add another forward, I think we’ve got a right squad! Feeling far happier than a few weeks back.
1.) 31 Aug 2023 22:53:29
Oh no. You said productive. And sound positive. Damn you!
2.) 01 Sep 2023 10:30:10
Dont get over giddy fellas.
12 Jul 2023 09:54:58
Looks like Rodrigo off to Qatar, deal done and medical awaits according to Fabrizio Ramano. Good luck fella, fill your bank account and enjoy the sun, shame you couldn’t help us get back to the EPL.
1.) 12 Jul 2023 10:26:26
Indeed MG.
2.) 12 Jul 2023 10:45:14
Agree mid. Like to keep him. But good luck to him. That time of his career self before side.
3.) 12 Jul 2023 11:23:08
Beat me to it. Again.
4.) 12 Jul 2023 12:09:11
Can't understand any team coming for our players after last 2 seasons I hope these younguns shine this season them players on loan can gone run a duck.
5.) 14 Jul 2023 08:22:33
Shame he’s leaving. One of the few last year that looked like he cared.
At his age I understand it. Good luck to him.
09 Jan 2023 08:08:14
Reports this morning are that Leeds are prepared to let Joffy go out on loan for the rest of the season.
I know he hasn’t had much of an impact this season and will be great for him to get games and goals, but hopefully shows that there is another striker due in Jan? Here’s hoping so!
1.) 09 Jan 2023 09:24:25
I’m not sure he is good enough for prem. So hopefully he does well where he goes and they buy him. And yes you would think that indicates incoming.
2.) 09 Jan 2023 10:06:47
A loan at the start of the season would’ve been the best thing, had we landed the right striker then. He needs a full season of regular football to help him fulfill his talent. I’m sure time away would see us getting back a much stronger and capable player. He does have it in him imo.
3.) 09 Jan 2023 13:31:57
You’d think the pope would be a good striker given time bright. Lol.
4.) 09 Jan 2023 17:15:17
I hear he showed a lot of promise in his early days, Aus. ???.
5.) 10 Jan 2023 07:23:51
Yeah, think Joffy was probably overhyped tbh, he gives his all but not sure he’s got enough about him to be a Premier League striker. Hope I’m wrong.
08 Sep 2020 16:36:42
New rumour from a few different sources (French Football News/ Goal) saying we are trying to convince Julian Draxler to join from PSG.
Highly, highly unlikely, but wouldn’t that be epic!
1.) 08 Sep 2020 18:08:11
Epic effort but looks like he prefers living in Paris to living in Leeds
Strange lad.
2.) 08 Sep 2020 18:49:22
Yes apparently he is not interested.
Next!
3.) 09 Sep 2020 00:38:30
Other woody 😂.
4.) 09 Sep 2020 12:43:40
He is on £120,000.a week. Never happening.
5.) 09 Sep 2020 13:16:20
Draxler, Really? let's just park him on the list between Messi and Bale. Just above Ronaldo (Christiano that is) .
Maybe he does prefer Paris to Leeds but he could live in Batley and get the train in.
6.) 10 Sep 2020 11:10:37
Why not Beeston, and just walk to the ground?

Tanaka again from the start? Really?
1.) 05 Sep 2026 15:50:37
Be grateful.
2.) 05 Sep 2026 16:06:07
Best player in the first half. Very pleasant surprise; long may that continue!
3.) 05 Sep 2026 17:25:41
I agree. Was very surprised he started, but very glad he did. Had a very good game.
I know Bogle scored, but I think he needs to work on his defensive skills and staying on his 'kin feet, constantly falling over trying to con a free kick, and that puts us in danger!
Should have been 3-0 up before they turned up, but happy with a point based on the last 25 minutes.
4.) 05 Sep 2026 17:30:13
Agree, MG!
5.) 05 Sep 2026 18:03:22
Should of been 3 up, but kind of happy we didn't lose.. Game of 2 halves!. ???
30 Aug 2026 14:26:16
24 minutes in and Stach needs to turn up. We are playing with 10 men at the moment.
1.) 30 Aug 2026 14:47:49
Baz, the only player out there is Ba according to some. CL is rubbish. We are not in the game at all.
2.) 30 Aug 2026 14:59:35
Very disappointing first half, and yep, re Stach.
Worse still, Joe Rodon went off with a hamstring injury, and Leeds then conceded.
Farke needs to bring on subs, ideally Longstaff, Wilson and Danny James, early in the 2nd half.
3.) 30 Aug 2026 15:06:51
Won't do, Baz, it's Ba, forget anyone else, mate; the whole team is not clicking down to Farke now.
4.) 30 Aug 2026 16:09:47
Are you going to acknowledge Farke made good calls, White?
5.) 30 Aug 2026 17:10:46
Oh yes, he brought on tanks, ani4ni. Are you going to acknowledge their manager, who has only been in the job for 6 weeks, outclassed our manager, who has been in it for years? And, before you say it, no, I am not saying he should be sacked, but the truth is he was done over, mate.
6.) 30 Aug 2026 18:08:28
Their manager only been there for 6 weeks? Hmm. I'm not sure how I am supposed to acknowledge that?
12 Aug 2026 21:28:42
Got to keep Seb Bornauw, he's definitely good enough for the EPL and has a great pre season.
1.) 12 Aug 2026 22:02:15
Agreed.
Interesting, he was the only Leeds player who played the whole match.
2.) 12 Aug 2026 22:08:11
Well, his value has increased that for sure. Midfield.
3.) 12 Aug 2026 22:24:19
He's been pretty good in all the games he played pre-season, and he's got a habit of getting on to those Amps long throws (which also look more threatening so far) .
I thought Gnonto was pretty good tonight, and Okafor pretty decent given it's his first run out (and that he never quite looks fit to me) .
Wilson and Stach definitely not hit their straps yet, though once they do (and they will) , they're going to be formidable imo.
4.) 12 Aug 2026 23:33:25
Another good injury-free workout, but it would still have been nice to get the win, especially against them. The player who really impressed me tonight was Willy.
5.) 12 Aug 2026 23:59:41
Some player ratings from Leeds Live.
Jimmy Trafford 9 (a bit generous imo) .
Gnonto 8.
DJ 8.
Okafor 8.
BA 7.
All of our defenders 6 or less, except Rodon.
Wilson 5.
DCL 4.
And Nmecha 2 (a bit harsh, but still) .
So, perhaps we could do with signing an additional striker please.
6.) 13 Aug 2026 00:33:52
Disagree with your "all defenders 6 or less, except Rodon" statement, Baz. I thought Mahremovic was at least a 7 too, with some great saving tackles and good positional awareness.
Also, you rate Gnonto as 8, and I agree. He was playing as a stand-in RWB, and was surprisingly good. Okafor and BA, I also agree, I think both have come back from WC26 with a point to prove.
7.) 13 Aug 2026 00:46:47
Yep, Tarek a 7, JR.. Fair enough.
21 Apr 2026 21:43:16
Leicester relegated ????
Enough said.
1.) 21 Apr 2026 22:07:59
Good riddance and reap what you sow.
2.) 21 Apr 2026 22:09:44
Justice MG!
3.) 21 Apr 2026 22:31:39
Cheats never prosper!
4.) 21 Apr 2026 23:09:48
Have to say I enjoyed this one. Have a dislike for all the ones who've cheated their way up.
5.) 22 Apr 2026 06:24:26
Explain City, so Class, as they seem very prosperous.
6.) 22 Apr 2026 07:57:51
And Everton, who somehow always come up smelling like roses.
7.) 22 Apr 2026 08:04:53
Aye, Chris, of the EPL, crown jewels they are, disgusting it is.
8.) 22 Apr 2026 12:51:52
Good point, Chris, I still think their (Citehs) time will come, Chris. I mean, they practically run the EPL, so it's going to be very slow, but what goes around generally comes back around, no matter how much money you have.
But the EPL board are cheats themselves in that there's a closed shop for the top six teams, and I, for one, truly wished that the Euro League had gone through, when football would have been returned to its true supporters once more.
17 Jan 2026 17:33:24
What a good do!
Never looked like conceding today, everyone had very good games, and a great finish by the big man at the end.
MG very happy.
1.) 18 Jan 2026 08:39:34
Ditto to all that MG! Great, disciplined performance, thoroughly deserving the win, and without 2 key signings from that disastrous summer window too!

100% JJ.
There are still a lot of young footballers who want to play football and not just receive a hefty pay cheque.
02 Feb 2026 08:37:27
Not if we go down Alf.
02 Feb 2026 08:01:50
Only medicals booked are to check how healthy Paraag's bank account is.
Results are back, it is in a very healthy state as he hasn't f'kin spent anything!
03 Dec 2025 14:21:13
Should have bought Solomon in the summer Aus, cannot understand for one second why we didn't get the deal done.
Well I can, our recruitment team are Pony.
03 Dec 2025 14:19:51
I hope 2 minimum actually means 5 Alf.

To be honest, I have Kane as possibly the best CF in the world, definitely one of them.
I think at an England level, we would have struggled to get anywhere in any tournament because I don't think we have had any decent CF's in England (until now DCL is bang on form) .
However, I do agree that Kane can also be a huge problem, when he drops deep, he wipes away any positivity and attacking threat, and he does have a tendency to shoot when better options are available (but sometime he scores) .
It's basically time for another prolific English goal scorer to challenge/replace him, but not sure that will happen, the FA love him.
18 Sep 2026 06:58:30
Jeez, no wonder some posters post less, or not at all anymore ?♂️.
05 Sep 2026 17:25:41
I agree. Was very surprised he started, but very glad he did. Had a very good game.
I know Bogle scored, but I think he needs to work on his defensive skills and staying on his 'kin feet, constantly falling over trying to con a free kick, and that puts us in danger!

02 Sep 2026 08:13:21
Like Alf, I give it 9/10.
We have an unrecognisable and far superior defence, with quality backups in most areas, the addition of Wilson, who will get the front line ticking, and speed in abundance, with DJ and Le Road Runner.
Disappointed we didn't land a striker, and I was fully expecting Haaland to arrive, but hey ho, if DCL continues to stay fit and succeed with this system and the improved players around him, the future looks bright.
Hats off to the recruitment team, they have surpassed my expectations.
01 Sep 2026 23:19:28
Deal sheet has gone in.
