    He's very quick and skillful.
    His stats aren't too bad for a struggling la liga team. Championship is much lower quality so that's where his ability will hopefully come through.
    It's not particularly him that could find championship football a challenge it's potentially an issue for any foreign player. That's a problem he has the ability to overcome and is used to playing at a higher level.
    We will see but I will be backing him. It's your choice to be negative but maybe you know more than I do.
    Sackho ran about a lot and delivered next to the square root of diddly squat. Why would we want to repeat that particular experience?

    "He's very quick and skilful". And that opinion is based on what?

    "His stats aren't bad for a struggling la liga side", and we aspire to be that "good".

    When is it likely that those players we see incoming show the true colours of the owners aspirations? If this is it, League 1 beckons, but maybe some are ok with that.

    And btw, so far, over the last four seasons or so, my "negative OPINIONS" have been a f00king more accurate than those paid a kings ransom to bring new talent to the club.

    Too many similarities to previous season's fiascos. Forever hopeful but painfully aware of previous optimism slowly killing me. This is how Leeds do things.....we should be well aware of that by now! Hope I'm wrong.

    Proof will be in the pudding but the second he puts on that shirt he gets my support , everything crossed it works out for all concerned , we still need more signings if. we are wanting to have a chance at top 6.

    He wears the shirt so he gets your support. Explains EVERYTHING that is wrong with this club.

    The owners KNOW that the vast majority of supporters will do exactly the same, and f00k us over time and time and f00king time AGAIN!!!!!!

    Been a LUFC supporter since I was 8, I'm now 68 and really past caring what becomes of the club I have followed for all that time. Why?

    We haven't had owners since Mr Silver and Manny who valued the club more than themselves, all who followed have traded in what was created under their ownership and via the management of the great Don. Others followed and attempted to replicate what went before, none, even Macallister etc, succeeded. All the more recent ownership transfers have been a grubby scramble for the bare bones of what was once a proud and creditable club, including our most recent manifestation of "the next big thing".

    He will have my support too, Rev. At least until it is obvious he is way out of his depth...or his heart isn't in it! We don't know either of those just yet....

    If I thought those who were responsible for his appointment were in any way capable or responsible I might, but they aren't and I don't.

    Comparing to Sacko is bizarre. That's one player from a while ago who is a totally difftindividual.
    He's very quick and skillful is based on how he plays the game, what else would it be based on ?
    A player doing ok/good in a struggling laliga side may well do better in a league with much less quality. So yes I see that potential.
    What I agree on is yet again poor planning, if there is any at all. And we always seem to be rock bottom of the cash in and out in comparison to any other club.
