ponsaelius Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 (edited) I know we obviously have our value metrics etc but I find it strange went up to 42 million for Maddison but not anywhere near that for Harrison. No doubt in my mind who the better player is (Maddison) but equally I think Harrison would be a better fit tactically and personality wise for what we need and what Howe wants for the team. The more I've seen us play and the way Harrison has started the season - I think he'd have fitted in like a glove and given us great balance. We should have gone in with a proper offer much earlier on in the window. I don't think they'll even consider selling now.

The Prophet Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Yesterday showcased Harrison's potential, but that's by far the best he's played for Leeds. He needs to be more consistent week in, week out. I do like him though, I know our values will be very data driven, but based on the eye test he isn't worth more than £30 million. It seems a bit redundant anyway, as soon as they sold Raph they were always going to be reluctant sellers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JP Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Our recruitment team from Howe to Ashworth are targeting the right players/characters. Trust them. Even if we don't sign anyone else this window (think we will), they will get the right ones in eventually. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on how he's started this season - definitely much closer to £40m. Proven PL output and years left on a contract will demand a v. good fee and we should know that. We would've valued Maxi around the same pre-takeover with lower output (although younger with a longer contract). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeds don't need to sell and he's now their most creative outlet which will only add to the price. They can rightfully ask for silly cash. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodrigo is on fire as well. I know it’s early days but with some luck they could really make it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlymouthGeordie Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Top 8 or top 10 will be defined by which team avoids injury to key players. If Wilson or ASM get lengthy injuries we won't be finishing top 8. Likewise with Harrison and Rodrigo for Leeds or Rice and Bowen for West Ham etc. Our squad is better than Leeds imo but there really isn't much in it squad wise between us, West Ham, Leicester, Villa and maybe even Man Utd. So much will depend on who can keep their best players fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man U are struggling with poor motivation poor management bad structure, overpaid players etc. but their squad should be a shoo-in for top 6 even top 4. The squads aren’t comparable in that sense.
