2 of them carried Farke all season, no Summerville, no Georgie and we are mid table last season.

I’m neither surprised nor gutted, though I actually never thought anybody would give us a profit, so well done Leeds.. I don’t think he’ll be that good in the PL , they’ll suss him out pretty quickly and we’ve stiffed another South Coast wannabe pretender.

If I had my hands on the reins I’d buy a good LB and move Firpo up to Geo’s position.

Now, all we need to do is sell Gnonto and our summer selling is complete. Anybody got Geronimo’s phone number?

You plan for these departures, right now we've done nothing to replace our outbound stars from last season.

As the deadline approaches the risk of panic buying increases

At the moment it seems the out door is a revolving one while the in door has a massive no entry sign on it...
Gray was for 23/24 psr so we passed, so couldn't spend. Jimmy and Geo have only just gone, so we couldn't buy before we sold in case we still had them. Then there's the issue of how much we owe this year for fees.

Never in a million years did i think we'd be getting our money back for some of the clowns, especially this £36m.

We should be dancing in the streets fer Gawds sake...AND IT'S PAID FOR GRUEV !!!

One by 1 DF, that's the way to do it.......Gnonto next then i'm a happy man.

And DF can finally start his re-build properly.

Can't buy players until they go. What happened if we spent £40m and he failed a medical?

I agree on that point, OB, but we'll miss his 6 goals & 16 assists, as is the case with Summerville's 21 goals & 9 assists in the championship.

Who in this current squad is going to provide those numbers?

That's direct assists and I had it as 19 btw IIRC. Geo was often the creator for the player that got the assist. I reckon quality goal involvement would be up around 40 plus goals.. The assist stat is a nasty one as you can beat 5 players play a stunning through ball only to lose the assist as it's deflected off a defender last.

Technically two weeks but we knew he was gone for three and no attempt to replace..

Entertaining to watch too, plenty of golden moments.

Watching Leeds last night, without those two and Gnonto & James was a yawn.

Defence needs to be good this season. Good job we're not short handed there

Piroe got 14, James 15, Willy 8, Joseph will score if given a chance, even Bamfraud will have his usual purple patch. If Farke hadn't made us so one dimensional, we wouldn't have been solely reliant on them. Every manager had worked us out, so the chances of those two replicating it again were very slim.

51 of our 81 goals were either scored by or assisted by Georgie or Jimmy. :(

Too 2 chances creators as well.

Replacing them would be hard for an organised recruitment team . . . .

Because Farke made it that way. Once every team doubled up on Jimmy and Geo, the results dried up. At least now we won't be so easy to play against.

Our fans have been misled & lied to after putting all the hard-earned cash into LUFC.

After 60 years of watching Leeds, I feel like ripping my season-ticket in half & binning it.

Only three or four marquee signings would change my current mood, can't see it to be honest.
If I were a season ticket holder I'd serously be thinking of boycotting elland road for the time being :evil:
