Rasmus Kristensen

Good to see we're getting players in before pre-season

A creative midfielder and a striker still needed, plus Rapha replacement when/if he goes.

Maybe this is a plan to show ambition & convince Phillips & Raphinha to stay.

Left wing back is the biggest piece needed, it's Firpo or nothing with Dallas done for the season probably. If Raph stays there's your creative mid in the 4-2-2-2 alongside the creative Aaronson, behind them we have Harrison and Greenwood both very decent

DMF to play alongside Kalvin is the #2 need imo

Striker to sit behind Joffy and Paddy #3

It's all getting very monotonous. The wilder comparison is good though.

Whilst I agree all those are needed I think a technical midfielder has to be number 1 as a replacement for Hernandez. We were so short of creativity last year

You're assuming Raph has gone then. I agree it'll be a need once Raph is confirmed as going. But as it stands Raph and Aaronson will play the AMF roles

Been out in downtown Pattaya....enjoying the company of sexy young ladies....slightly pickled....0130am now goodnight Overman

Interesting that the person trying to explain differences between Bielsa and Marsch debate is someone who is in a place where most people can't even tell whether someone has c*ck n b*lls or a f*nny.

Easy for me....if they're as tall as me....its a c**k-in-a-frock.

[Changnoy]

Grow up. Pathetic.

I would suggest you start first.
As others have pointed out..your insistence on bringing up the "last manager" was unecessary and pathetic in the extreme.
Get over it....he's gone.

[Changnoy]

Drunk and horny by the sound of it ..... very little blood left for the brain to make any sense of anything tbh

"Slightly pickled" but not drunk....and knew exactly what i was writing.
I just find the constant comparisons of the two managers rather tedious.

[whiteinfrance]

Love the man but Bielsa had his faults which were there to see

[Jimang]

Yes, hearing just medical to do now and we have a new right back. As already said big bonus to get these players in early and get them playing together. Also agree left full back is now the priority position to fill, and I still like the sound of Minamino as attacking midfielder. Beginning to feel optimistic about next season...... I never learn

Deal in place for Rasmus Kristensen according to the reliable Mike McGrath.

Looks like our right back is on his way.

Good stuff Cjay

[CHAPELALLMAN]

Lee Wingate of The Other Bundesliga, external podcast, which focuses on the Austrian top flight, told BBC Radio Leeds:

"He's a full-back, a right-back by trade.

"He's so strong and dynamic - in that respect, I can imagine him being quite well suited to the Premier League.

"He's the top-scoring defender in the Bundesliga this season with seven. He's all about his attacking game - bombing up and down that flank, and sometimes cutting in.

"He's been one of the standout players in the league. I'd say the best defender in the league.

"He's obviously had a good working relationship with Jesse Marsch, but it's this season where I've thought: 'Wow!'

"In Austria, we're always thinking about the next Salzburg players who are going to leave, because it's a constant conveyor belt.

"This season I was thinking it was probably going to be Brenden Aaronson and Rasmus Kristensen - so the fact Leeds have gone in for the two of them is a good sign."

And what does Wingate make of the reported £10m asking price?

"Looking towards club likes Salzburg is a really wise move because they can prise these players away for so much less. £10m seems a really good deal.

"This is a guy who is relatively young, has a lot of good years ahead of him and is extremely talented."

Know little about this guy other than what I've read and a few YouTube clips, but he looks powerful and dynamic going forward. Key thing is can he defend and is he an upgrade on Ayling? And where does it leave the highly rated Drameh? Good to see early incomings (AMF, LB, GK and Striker and we're set), but expect there to be a few departures too. Read earler that Marsch is going to give Poveda, Davis and Costa a chance in pre-season; the first two, fair enough, but Costa? F**k no!!

If no one wants Costa, what can we do?

Poveda - I think not, and Summerville more next in line.

Davis - Interesting, and worth a dabble, but i very much doubt it.

Costa - I wouldn't totally write off just yet, there's a slight chance (and it is slight) if he doesn't have to work as hard and is asked to play in this tighter knitted dildo thing that it might just come off, he's another of our players that is worse the more time he has to think, the more intricate the play the better for him, but if we could get any sort of decent return money for him, snatch their hand off.

Still think they had the Clowns pants down with him though, along with good old Bazza Douglas.
