gone steadily downhill from the day he signed perm deal.
I see he's shouting his mouth off again, claiming there's interest in him from premier league clubs.....go on then mouthy...name them...he's becoming a disruptive liability.....similar to McCormack towards the end, sad thing is both were and are decent players, although jansson is fine when it's going well, when we are behind and look to him for inspiration and leadership there isn't any....second part of last season he was below average....cash in or don't cash in....in my mind he's already gone, even at this early stage of his 5 year contract.

I took a different meaning from what he has allegedly been saying, which is for the club to get serious about getting back to the Premier League, if they aren't then let him try the Premiership.
He really didn't need to say anything via the media, all that could have been said behind closed doors.
He's doing what lots of his predesesors have done - advertising his services
happens every world cup - remember Rio Ferdinand going to the world cup and getting tapped up by Beckham and Scholes...Not saying he's in that league - but the opportunity to "Network" while on World cup duty has to be a factor for all ambitious players - and who can blame him - after all playing in front of thousands of Marleys every week must be soul destroying lol...
He does come with a reputation for being outspoken which has landed him in hot water before at previous clubs.
After the last hit and miss season i wouldnt believe hes such hot property as he likes to make out. Probably just covering all basis - if we dont invest/show ambition then he has a nice excuse most fans will sympathize with when he jumps ship.
He does stink of another player showing amazing form during the loan spell and then fading away once the permanent contract is signed. Bit of a sing when your winning type too - fist pumping and going crazy on a win, first down the tunnel when we lose.
Decent player Pontus but not bigger than the club. If you were to say to me now Pontus out - Bartley and Flint in id take that anyday.
I suggest he keeps schtum and realise hes never going to be bigger than the club.
Bartley and flint.....what a solid partnership that sounds.
Flint is a goal threat being 6,5, defensively though if he was that good a better team would have had him by now
We just need Bartley back to keep pontus on the straight and narrow, I know berardi is a rb but to have a back 4 of ayling Bartley jansson and berardi would be great, all good defenders, all play with the passion and determination that leeds fans like, having the experience of stockdale behind them would be a plus, and then forshaw in front of them protecting the back line, we are talking top 6 stuff here, at the other end, hernandez X 2 and Saiz, alioski there too, this has the makings of a top 6 lineup, just the remaining midfielders to sort out and I'm telling you, there's a quality lineup there, with bielsa or McCarthy directing proceedings, this is doable, and I actually think radders will make this happen, no matter how much marls doesn't! Lol!
what happened to the big finnish kid we signed?
