Quality out of the wrong door.
Saw him play twice, really clever winger.
Hope we get some real pace in soon because if not expect more of the same.
WE''RE LEEDS UNITED, WE''LL NEVER BE DEFEATED!

Paul Green was warnobs best signing.
If you disagree please send me a PM so we can get in to a fight.

Big worry for me is the style of hoofball we play isn't going to attract any player who wants to play the game in the correct manner, like Thomas obviously does.

At least with Thomas in the side we did occasionally play it on the floor. With that option removed it will detract from the quality of our football, if such a thing were possible after New Year's Day's snoozefest...

Needs more than pace though. I thought he started well but flattered to deceive. :bear:

Despite his obvious lack of match fitness Thomas got several important assists during his short time at the club. He is the only player we have had who will run at defenders since Gradel left. He links well with Diouf and he can find Becchio's head without having to look between your legs.

I'd be very happy if we could sign him.

Three assists and a goal in seven appearances when very short of match fitness. Crap final ball that is... :roll:
