Players leaving for basically nothing (Rodrigo).

Us agreeing to loans with very little benefit to us (no loan fees no obligation to buy).

Seemed a bit weird

But Phil Hay said this

People close to Robin Koch have suggested that the defender may leave Leeds on loan this summer, with the German international having 12 months left on his deal. This is where the ‘free departure’ rumours have begun, as following the loan Koch could leave on a free transfer - but the loan club would have to pay Koch’s wages for this season. It’s indicated that if a loan offer is made to Koch Leeds are obliged to accept, resulting in the 26 year old spending his last 12months of his contract away from Leeds and able to walk away at the end of it for free. He cannot simply leave this transfer window on a free transfer and there is no clause for that. (Phil Hay speaking on The Phil Hay show )

"Obliged to accept a loan".

Lots of talk about relegation release clauses but have we actually been putting in clauses allowing our players to leave any way they can if relegated?

Sounds mad but Orta is a moron and Radz said it was impossible we would be relegated :duno:
Yup. Still a bad deal

Been saying for ages that the division of responsibility was whacked

Orta should have been responsible for scouting. And that's it.

We should have had a more qualified man in a suit doing contracts

I could live with that apart from swapping Summerville for Sini.

41 goals and 8 assists in the Championship in his career.

Not a proper 9 though imo.

More of a 10.

Good player though

I like the look of Piroe, whether he's a 9 or a 10. But if the Prem are watching, he's not coming to us

Sky sports reporting leeds interested in signing Nat Phillips from Liverpool 26 years old. Liverpool want £10m. Apparently we're very interested but depends on getting manager sorted first

Decent source (from a major Nigerian publication).

Decent signing perhaps if the price is right? Forest paid £15mil, somewhere in the £8-10 range be decent value? Maybe get them to offer Dennis + £15-20mil for Adams.

Versatile player.

12 goals and 8 assists in 37 games in Premier league minutes whilst playing for struggling clubs.

Decent record.

For me more of a winger than a striker though, or a support striker.

Decent player at one point.

14 goals in 11 games last season for Hull is OK.

But bit suspicious of players who spend ages not playing

Played like 60 games in 6 years.

Short spell in the Spanish 2nd division where he was unable to make an impact.

Moved back to Serbia where he found his feet earning a move to Maccabi Tel Aviv in Israel.

Has 44 goals and 10 assists over the last 2 seasons.

Did I read somewhere that Forest are willing to let him go as they consider him to be a bad influence in the dressing room?
