Tend to agree Stiff..makes you wonder just what the f*ck is going off behind closed doors.
A lot of Ortas signings have been pretty poor and a waste of money..a lot to be said for buying 'proven' quality.

Suppose when the manager isn't allowed to bring in his own players his hands are mainly tied and he has to work with what he is given.
Not the way I want us to be run 'on the field' to be honest.
Get a manager in who you think his judgement can be trusted and back him!
One things for sure and that's Orta's judgement is very suspect!
To be fair we have also signed some decent players along the way
Siaz
Cibiski
Jannsen
Ayling
Roofe
Okane (despite this weekends stupidity)
Felix (I will put my tin hat on)
Dallas
Beradi
in his first season a few had doubts about Beradi but he is now one of our better consistent performers. Vierra and Phillips need time. Cooper is coming good in a more settled squad.
if signing players was easy and they all worked out then all teams would consistently play decent football. The instant gratification of smart phones and social media does not translate to real life.
Sorry Rev, the thread and the criticism is mainly about who has been brought in since Ortas arrival......pick out the two or three (you missed Alioski BTW), who have been anything close to an acceptable part of a Leeds 1st team squad. The rest of his trawl have been just about as embarrassing as they can be!
