According to G Smyth, Leeds have looked at 2 attackers and one defender ahead of the window opening, sources indicate to him that movement will likely be minimal overall, so i suspect possibly one out (likely Geldhart) one in..

Do you think Farke is his own worse enemy? What I mean is decent players like the young lad from Villa, Brearton Diaz, the lad from Forest, Ben Godfrey it seems all choosing other clubs over ours. Is that because they know they`re likely to be warming the bench unless someone suffers an injury? We have the experienced French lad an international who gets maybe 10 minutes a game, Schmidt who is rarely used with Farke preferring to play his favourites even if they are out of position. The French lad could/should have played in the back 4 with Ampadu in the midfield but he tries to shoehorn his favourites all the time. Whereas Parker and Wilder tend to play their loan players we don`t.

your assuming we were actually in for them? perhaps they wernt not choosing us as we wernt in for them? I've no idea either way but I think they know who they want

Hes rotated the squad a lot more than he did this time last season.

indeed. but for stupid errors we could be on 60 points quite easily

Yep, clear by at least 6 with a good keeper. Hoping Trafford is going to Newcastle which will weaken Burnley, he's the best keeper in the Champo quite comfortably...

I`m talking more about loan signings as one or two injuries and we could be struggling again along with players burning out towards the end of the season like last year. A 10 is a must or a CF and if Struijk or Wober leave in Jan a centre half. Ideally a keeper but can`t see it happening unfortunately.

G Smyth in his Q&A said he thinks Leeds ideally need a 10, a fullback and a keeper..doesn't expect it to happen though.

I`ve sorted it! It`s all in my head mind. Get rid of Meslier, Struijk, Bamford and Geldhart for £40m or swap Struijk leaving for Wober and get £30m Bring in Johnstone from Wolves, would prefer Kelleher at Liverpool but beggars can`t be choosers, Davis from Spurs both on loan and get Lathe Lat at £15m. Upgrades all round and we make £15 to 25 million profit. Told you before this football lark is a doddle.

Sunderland have signed Enzo Le Fee from Roma. Brilliant signing, the best player in the league, potentially.
