Him and Dummett will both be out of the door this summer.

Yes, how dare Burnley not sell their best defender to us and all but guarantee their own relegation.

So you have enough money to last ten lifetimes and living with a potentially fatal heart condition, fuck it lets join a lower mid table PL side for the lolz.......

Schar and Fed would be decent 3rd/4th choice CBs next season.

So he'll be staying then.

I know £25m to these owners is like normal owners spending £250k but christ talk about a waste of money.

At least Obertan didn't cost a fortune. Almiron is utter dogshit and its amazing he still has a few on here who try to defend him.

The fact he's the best LB and third best CB tells us how embarassing the situation at the club has become.

Comfortable 2-0 for Leeds.

No chance, we'll be booting him out at the end of the season. Decent free transfer for a league one play off chasing team.

Isn't he a free at the end of the season? Would be the end for Burnley if we poached him like.

Of course, but just pointing out why the better ones won't come to us.

Because any half decent one does not want to come. We could offer Lille £50M for Botman and him £200k a week and he still wouldn't come. Some people on here need to wake up and realise it isn't 1996 anymore.

It's effectively a four team mini league now for survival. Looking like a minimum of 6 wins from 18 games to survive after 1 win in 20 so far. Unlikely unless we can get a decent CB and CM in before the window shuts.

Apart from Trippier yes. As someone said, replacing Bruce with Howe was like upgrading from a 40" to a 42" TV.

No wonder any decent centre back wants nothing to do with us with the prospect of playing behind this plodder and jonjo lazy cunt.

I remember when we signed him and everyone was laughing at Swansea for selling their "best" player to a relegation rival. That went well. Fast forward six years and it looks like Wood and Burnley could be the same scenario.

Must have been pissed when I posted that as I can't remember Oh well, the point still stands.

Had reservations when we signed him but kept quiet about them, but nailing my colours to the mast now. He's shite and we'll do fuck all bar go down with him in charge. Feel free to bookmark this.

This sums it up for me. I'm sure Stavely and Co's hearts are in the right place but they've fucked up just about everything so far when it comes to incoming personnel.

Yes I'm naturally pessimistic but what is positive about the club apart from us being rich? All the players bar Wilson and ASM are dogshit and I think the manager was the wrong choice as well. I hope he and the new signings prove me wrong and keep us up but its hardly been a good start has it?

He still has another 2.5 years to go on his latest deal which will be way more then he'd get anywhere else. He's going nowhere other than out on loan with us still paying the majority of his wage.

Do you want me to do the mackem gravy stained top reply? Grow up man.

Desperate enough to pay £20M for a 30 year old who has 3 goals in 17 games this season? I admit that's pretty fucking desperate like.

It's not so much the prices its the ages of the players involved. Trippier 31, Wood 30. QPR did the same thing and it ruined them. Aye we are a lot richer but it still stinks of desperation.
