Leeds certainly did.

I'm assuming the only reason Man City aren't in for him is that they're hoping to get Haaland or Kane?

The Gerrard link I guess. Would be a massive shame.

Yep, his interview after the match where he stuck up for Joelinton shows that he's a good guy, and very switched on. I just wish he could find a way to get out of the treacle he's always running though, then he'd be a great backup.

I'm 100% in on this one now. He's one of the best players I've ever seen play at SJP so turning our noses up at him would be mental. I realise he comes with big wages, but people talking about being up for a relegation battle need to keep in mind that teams with better players don't have to "grind out results". The results will just come because the players are actually capable of using the ball.

I'm almost as excited about our outgoings

We should keep him now as the only other options in midfield are Hendrick and Matty Longstaff. However, I fully expect us to bring in much better midfielders, in which case if we can get Digne as part of the deal we should 100% go for it.

We're not though. Norwich, Burnley and Watford are.

We won’t. £50 food bank bet?

What happened with him at Atlético? Just loads of injuries?

Not sure how big that injection is. They're hoping to get Swift on a free in summer, but rumour is this cash injection will allow them to buy him now. He can't be that expensive can he??

Even if they did, surely they'd be a lot more measured in which posts they like?

I did 10-15 years ago. Think the league's a little different now. Can add Shearer to your list tbf

Would we be as excited if we were signing him from Spurs? I can't remember how highly regarded he was on here before he went to Spain.

fair enough. My mate (Rangers fan) thinks he'd do ok here but says he's too much of a risk in the premiership as he's an absolute headcase.

Yeah but they should have signed him in November. What a waste of games

I put it to my Leeds season ticket holding mate, got this reply: "To expensive for us matey. Realistic links to us are Swift from Reading and O'Brien from Hudds. Bielsa was keen on Lanzini but after the weekend can't see that happening and the other players was Bereton Diaz but I think Blackburn have just slapped 30m price tag on him"

You've obviously watched loads of his games. Especially the Rangers v Celtic ones yeah? How do you not know who he plays for?

No chance that they can afford him. Like zero.

I'm hoping Michelle Keegan is putting as much thought into why I like her instagram posts tbh

There's a reason there's no mention of him though.

We surely can’t ignore the major issues we have in centre midfield right? Right?!

ASM won’t be fit will he?

Ake until Stones did his hamstring Nketiah likely to be one of the loan slots if we're in for him?

What's his role? Barely seen anything of him but I thought he was a winger?
