Hamer on the rumour mill merry-go-round again I see.
1.) 13 Jan 2026 22:23:14
Yeah 6mil apparently. Seems cheap in sure we were asked to pay around £13m when we were interested.
2.) 13 Jan 2026 23:15:07
He wouldn't last 15 minutes at this pace and regardless of goals, Hamer wouldn't fit in to the team.
I wouldn't play him over BA.
3.) 14 Jan 2026 03:34:30
Yeah. Pass on him now.
4.) 14 Jan 2026 12:33:19
shows how much BA has improved of late.
05 Aug 2025 09:09:21
AMN back on the rumours list at around 13, if true I think would be a decent purchase as can cover both back positions.
1.) 05 Aug 2025 23:35:22
Think I'd prefer Justin to AMN, but he's rumoured to be an Everton target.
03 Jul 2025 10:21:52
Perri agreed terms with Galatasaray reported.
24 Jun 2025 10:55:07
Rumour about Calvert-Lewin, better get medical room expanded, don't you just love click bait garbage.
1.) 24 Jun 2025 13:52:37
havent seen that - what is the source oldBri?
2.) 24 Jun 2025 14:56:49
News now.
3.) 24 Jun 2025 14:59:11
So not really a source as 99% is crap and ???.
4.) 24 Jun 2025 15:01:06
And it is on LeedsUnited. news.
5.) 25 Jun 2025 08:43:58
He's a very talented player, but unless he's free, and Keir Starmer redirects the cash from pensioners, and welfare for his salary, then he's too big a risk with our own injury track record!
6.) 25 Jun 2025 22:38:01
Thanks Oldbri.
7.) 25 Jun 2025 22:38:36
He would be free Brighton but he would still want a salary!
21 May 2025 09:31:09
Apparently Angel Gomes is on our radar.
1.) 21 May 2025 18:22:46
quality on a free appartently.

Why do we mostly seem to struggle with goalies? Perri was quite well ranked before he joined us, so is it the actual players or are our goalkeeping coaching staff persons. I don't know, but I just wonder how a goalie as good as Perri was rated and a good number of posters on here (not all I must add) were pleased when he came, yet suddenly he is rubbish.
I know he has made some errors but he has made some good stops as well, so do we get rid and spend a shed load of Dosh on a replacement or stick with him? Sometimes it's better the devil we know, but also a new broom sweeps clean.
My concern is all we have barr Perri is Cairns and sorry but he is a number 3 at best, personally I would keep Perri but I expect to be in the minority on that.
1.) 18 Jul 2026 00:42:57
I'm a bit baffled with Perri. He had a good reputation, but clearly needs work. Whether we give him another chance or not, we still have to buy a good enough keeper to be a starter.
2.) 18 Jul 2026 01:08:03
I'd keep Perri, but we need another at least as good as Darlow to compete with him for the No 1 spot. However, good Trafford is, I'd not expend £30M plus of our limited budget on him. If we could get him for £25M (some hope) , I might be tempted, but I'd reject any suggestion of a buyback clause.
3.) 18 Jul 2026 08:27:05
Agree with the comments re Perri. I've never viewed him as a lost cause and hoped that he needed some time to get used to the different requirements in the Premier League.
He was ok in the cup run, so hopefully the coaching staff had put some work in.
If he does go, then it has to be a transfer or a loan with an obligation to buy.
4.) 18 Jul 2026 09:51:38
Perri's big problem is his distribution. It's terrible. It was s**** at Lyon and hasn't improved at Leeds. I was amazed DF signed off on his transfer.
5.) 18 Jul 2026 17:24:16
Good as Darlow. ?♂️ No, no, it's got to be better.
06 Jul 2026 08:45:53
So Henderson has badly injured his wrist celebrating, a recent post talked about this so it seems it was bound to happen, maybe just maybe players and more importantly subs will think twice before jumping all over each other and climbing on advertising hoardings, which aren't designed for standing on, but no it will carry on regardless and someone will get a career threatening injury. ??
1.) 06 Jul 2026 12:18:32
Isn't the bigger issue that he injured his wrist, but had to have a stretcher to leave the pitch? No wonder they act like they've been shot when someone touches them!
2.) 06 Jul 2026 13:37:27
Good point, CJS. Private health cover, I reckon. ?
3.) 06 Jul 2026 17:54:04
You want to watch the Joe Westerman video when he puts his knee cap back into place, tells the physio to go and carries on playing. Suppose he didn't have private health cover.
4.) 06 Jul 2026 19:36:58
Don't be too quick to judge. Traumatic injuries like that can cause shock and oxygen deficit, which is bad news where the air is 10% thinner - that's probably why they put him on oxygen.
03 May 2026 15:44:26
Apparently Isak is out with a very small groin.
Shame.
Sorry, very small groin problem.
Me and my typing skills ?.
1.) 03 May 2026 17:16:41
Lol, Bri!
2.) 03 May 2026 17:59:38
A small groin has never stopped me bringing.
Anyway, it's what you do with it!
29 Mar 2026 22:09:28
44 days the same as Clough still not sure which was the worst decision, hiring Cloughy of firing him ??.
1.) 29 Mar 2026 22:28:11
Hiring Clough (esp without Peter Taylor) was worst.
2.) 30 Mar 2026 15:08:17
After his well-known insults directed at Revie's team, he should have never got near the job. Johnny Giles was the man to take over.
3.) 30 Mar 2026 18:11:30
Definitely, Feath.
Clough may well have worked another couple of years down the line (as Baz said, needed Peter Taylor with him) .
22 Mar 2026 13:48:22
Without goals we can't win. DCL is struggling at the moment, so we have to look at other options — maybe Piroe, maybe a false 9, anything. I know some on here will say he's our top scorer and he was top English striker, but when did he last hit the net? If we keep drawing matches it's likely we will get relegated, so no rose tinted glasses, chaps.
Be honest, we are in a dog fight. That's my opinion, not that some give a toss about my opinion as clearly stated in the past.
1.) 22 Mar 2026 13:59:40
When were we ever not in a dog fight for this season?
2.) 22 Mar 2026 14:01:55
Great post OB.
Piroe is our best natural finisher. Start him with DCL and Okafor for the Cup quarter final and next EPL home match vs Wolves.
3.) 22 Mar 2026 14:17:04
None of what you said there, OB, is nonsense, so don't put yourself down. My own biggest concern is the creation of clear chances for DCL. There were zero yesterday. Nor was there anyone close enough to him to feed off his aerial strengths.
Love Piroe and his close season endeavours to come back our fittest player, but he can't lead the line in the way that's needed right now. I would, however, have him playing off Dom's shoulder in a straight 2 upfront.
4.) 22 Mar 2026 14:17:15
Well said, Bri.
5.) 22 Mar 2026 14:27:48
Totally agree, Brighty. Unfortunately, Piroe will only be up front with DCL for the last ten minutes of games when we are losing, alongside all our other forwards, because DF is chucking the kitchen sink. Tactical genius he is?!
6.) 22 Mar 2026 22:59:34
Agree regarding Piroe, he might just be the man to get us scoring again. 7 points required for me.
14 Jul 2026 10:03:35
Sell a few of the deadwood, get a few bob, save on their extortionate salary, maybe we can afford some reasonably priced players.
27 Jun 2026 19:59:16
No, but 2 medicals.
23 May 2026 09:13:02
Agree, JR, my only problem with our recruitment team is sometimes they dilly dally. Not that all reports are true by a long stretch, but if DF wants Elliot then get stuck in now, don't wait till someone else makes a bigger offer. I am a tad biased, though, as I have always liked Elliot.
22 May 2026 08:08:54
25 million for Elliot, in my opinion, would be good business, obviously depending on add ons etc. Before he went to Villa, he was up there with the best English players of his position, but I don't think we will go for him. Shame, really.
18 Feb 2026 23:45:19
I would be stunned.
26 Jul 2026 10:23:51
Rusty? I see Wrexham must have played a few games then. If Daniel Farke goes back to the disastrous back 4 formation, he deserves everything he may get. I am not saying sack him, as, under the circumstances, he has done a good job and deserves to stay. Good luck, Daniel Farke, using those tactics; you will need it.
20 Jul 2026 20:22:43
A legend of a footballer, a gent of the game who will be sadly missed. Condolences to his family.
He also gave one of the most played interviews ever that always made us smile, a true tantrum that showed his passion for our beautiful game, as a player, 110%, as a manager, 110%, and as a person, 110%.
19 Jul 2026 22:55:12
Said before the WC I wouldn't watch any of it due to Infantino corruption, and for once I was right. The man is an absolute disgrace, and FIFA should be abolished. Oh, and I haven't seen a single second of WC football, even on the news. Just one thing, does WC stand for World Cup or water closet? Both are a pile of ?.
10 Jul 2026 13:32:33
To say a manager/coach wouldn't be allowed to play his favourite tactics says a lot about the confidence in Farke.
07 Jul 2026 10:07:00
Hate to say, but I can't see that happening, Dave. I fully agree, btw, but this has the same feeling as last year. We will get players, but not who we expect, and it will again be very late on in the window, but I may be totally wrong, I hope.
