That’s always a ‘red flag’ If a wide player who almost got double figures in goals scored last season is a red flag, imagine the colors on our wide players.

STM Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Just had a quick scan on their reactions of an 18m bid on Twitter (not the greatest source) and general feeling from Leeds fans was "double it". Hardly suggestive of a fanbase who don't rate a player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor in football matches where football is played, not this balance sheet/cashflow game that people seem to judge clubs on nowadays.

54 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Getting Harrison is a bit like the Targett signing imo, the other team has just strengthened that position, so may look to offload, like Digne at Villa. He's nothing flashy, but you know what you're going to get, a player who consistently puts in a shift, has good numbers, and a solid top-ten player, that will progress us and be a stepping stone player whois better then anything else we currently have.

Interpolic Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 If we're getting Harrison then consider me whelmed, but honestly our set of wingers just aren't good enough currently. If we get this lad in, someone who at least appears to have some end product, then we can look at the more sexy signing in that position in January or Summer 2023. Then our set of wingers is looking good, hopefully with Murphy and Almiron respectfully ushered towards the exit by then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a story came out saying we want £34m for Almiron and a club that everyone thinks is mega rich bid £18m I’d be saying double it too Edited July 20, 2022 by gdm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you think of it that way we’re only offering just above double for a regular starter of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 I mean, he's not even our first choice winger from Leeds to sign this summer, as by all accounts we held a firm interest in Raphina, so I can understand some being slightly underwhelmed. However, his numbers are good, I'm sure he offers graft as well as industry, and if our transfer 'committee' are sold on him, well let's defer to their judgement eh. I'm sure those fans will be pleasantly surprised if he does join. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

relámpago blanco Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 I honestly think most of the time we know before them. They then look at here and twitter and post articles like they know, when they probably contact the press officer at the club and get no comment now.
