As always Ger excellent concise commentary. You save me from hours a watching lengthy vids from other channels, that rarely provide clarity on any given story the way you do.
Buckle up all - the Leeds roller coaster has taken off! I hope we can keep banking points early and I have a good feeling that we will be celebrating at the end of the season. Thanks Ger as always. 🤞🏼🤞🏼
ripper, thanks for continuing to put all the info in 1 place Ger. Makes it much easier for "colonials" like me on the other side of the planet, appreciate it mate
Good Piece Ger.. My thoughts on Solomon Mirror yours, I looked at him and the way we manage Sam Byram and think we have the backroom skills to manage his fitness. Possibly a bargaining point with Tottenham who I think are looking to add value to him at the end of the season.
Now that Solomon is confirmed, I'd personally be happy with 2 or 3 more. Most of the linked players seem viable, although I dare say we'll sign someone out of the blue. Aarons, billing, kebbal, Sallai would all be decent. A lot depends on whether anyone else leaves. Gnonto showed us a glimpse of what he could be in a freerer role on Friday and he could be lethal so it would be a shame to lose him. Oddly, the Wober situation is even more crucial. If he stays and is committed, he covers cb, lb and potentially cdm so can play a big role. If he leaves, or plays like he did vs Boro, then it's a different story. Hopefully he pulls himself together and does a job for us this season, but I have to say I'm not sure he will
Let’s hope Soloman can find his previous form. It’ll be interesting to see where he plays. Also I think depth is important with the amount of games and potential injuries and fatigue. Better to bring in now rather than scrapping around in January 🤷🏼♂️
Thanks 🙏 Ger Roland looks a good player fingers 🤞 crossed Solomon it will be fantastic that we finally get him through the door 🚪 looking forward to seeing him play 🙏. It's going to be a crazy week before the transfer window 🪟 shuts will be interesting who else we can get in 🤝. Good luck 🍀 to the under 18s against Spurs thanks Ger marching on together we all love Leeds keep fighting 🦚🇮🇨🤍💛💙
Billing, Hamer, Aarons and Belloumi following this week’s activity - why is it never straightforward for Leeds to get these deals done early to save us the panic! Be buzzing if we get a couple of those names added to the squad!
Ill admit i was a little nervous with the long period of time passing after the signing of Bogle but i wasn't willing to go along with the doom merchants and its looking very much like the board are standing by their word and bringing in good players(a bit of a coup on some!) Panic over😅... MOT
Thanks Ger. If we get these over the line then anything other than winning the league will be seen as a failure IMO. Going to be tight before window ends but fingers crossed we get 23 in. Given attacking talent and numbers we will have in squad do you see anybody leaving to accommodate new signings?
Yeah, ger, we could have a radically different team this Saturday compared to last Fridays against Wednesday. I hope it's not to our own detriment. Knowing farke,he'll tred cautiously bed them in gently, let's hope the hunger for starting places happens on the matchday pitch rather than the training pitches spilling over into the dressing room. I'm expecting more players may leave.bamford,piroe&joffy could be third choice surplus..
@kelvinengland3991 to much to soon upheaval from a great team performance from last Fridays match.some of these new players might not be to familiar with our patterns of play,if farke makes too many wholesale changes it might or I hope it's not for the detriment of a winning performance, we know Daniels not adverse to putting on 5subs @ once..
Hi Ger. great channel! Question. Can you give more context as to why you’d be so excited by roland sallai transfer? He’s a winger and I feel we have 4 good wingers now, Salai’s stats are very ordinary, only 3 goals last season and not a regular starter, assists no where near Summerville either.
Sallai is another winger. But he's a very very good one. He's a step up on a lot of what we have and what other sides have at this level, he'd be a good premier league transfer. He's adaptable as well, can play anywhere across the front 3. Brings goals and assists.
Salai is the best for Leeds when looking for nomms to replace geands nom we think of Salai not Ramani (whom I respect) and the 2nd and 3rd nice signings will be Solomon and Ljubicic go!!!!!
Oh, the comparison between Wilder and Farke when it comes to commenting on prospective transfers away from their respective clubs……😂😂😂. Even if Hamer doesn’t come away from the dark to the light side, I love the fact that we could have put in a bid just to wind Wilder up 👍👍👍
The key is to get players who can help us get out of this division but not leave us next Summer trying to offload players who will not be good enough to keep us up. I very much doubt the 49ers will be taking any gambles unless they find a real potential player that everybody else has missed. EPL clubs will now have almost finalised their squads as will sides in Europe and I imagine the accountants will be at work deciding who needs to leave so there are no PSR problems.
That's a very good post. Exhibit A - Ampadu. One of the best midfielders in the championship but arguably would struggle to get into most prem teams. I guess the trick is to have a few players who are improving loads like say Summerville and Gray did, and then a good few loans who we can bin off once we're up. Otherwise you have to have a huge churn in order to have a chance of staying up
@@BMG5420 So long as you don't have too many loan players in key positions. Because if you do the core of your promoted side is gone and you have to start from scratch with other sides knowing that not only do you have cash bu a desperate need.
You and Kagey are balanced and sensible and don't seem to be in love with your own voices. Glad i have unsubscribed from other channels that dont bring those qualities. Cheers mate.
Please Paarag set your ship for the premier League & bring Hamer into your Wheelhouse , Gus will be worth the extra £ to bring him in . We get him & we have 1 of the best in his positions in the league. He's also a player who is already a premier League player.
Hamer could be our statement signing? I thought I read something about Lubijcic being back on? Do you have any better knowledge on this? Now that we pretty much have Solomon, I think if we can seal up a full-back cover, a number 10 and CB cover (then get rid of Wober), I’m pretty happy! I like James Debayo as cover too but still a young lad so have to be careful with him
Scoop, did someone say ‘scoop’?? Ice-cream I hope? I’d certainly trade a good quality one for PatB or Piroe, plus it’d be more use to the club - what could possibly go wrong? 🤷♂️🤪🤪🤪👍 (I’m just joining in on the silly/stupid season rumours 🥳)
@@LeedsUnitedTheView yes but only problem is, the standard of there ability is different and these players all will desire starts unlike Anthony and it may be hard to keep them all satisfied
Another good video Ger. Thanks for your effort, much appreciated. Anyone reading this who isnt a subscriber, give Ger a follow and you'll get a very balanced view of all things Lufc.
@LeoDragon34 14 goals last season, played out of position for half the season. 22 goals season before and 19 before that. He's a goal scorer. Piroe isn't the problem Farke doesn't know how to get the best out of him. We can afford to buy Hamer and keep Piroe
@@TheGeneral_LUFC I think he'll have a better year, but he's struggled with farkes style. You could swap with cash for Piroe and then look at another 9. But very unlikely
49ers are putting the money where their mouths are, cleaning house to allow Farke to build a force to be reckoned with, no longer cleaning up someone else's mess ay buddy 👍🏻🇺🇲
I do mate. And will continue to do. I spoke to Leeds last season about doing more and they were keen, but I haven't had a response for information or Contact right now.
Not signed enough yet. The owners need to sign players quickly not just prepare bids. Hoping for 3 more quality signings this week and then it’s down to Farke and the team to aim for top spot.
Keep him happy in the Championship??? Surely - we want him to help us get into the premiership. Therefore he will contribute and settle in while we play like a premiership team in the Championship?
@LeedsUnitedTheView well what I've seen needs to improve .Sheffield had our pants down ..defended like a 10 year old to give penalty away .. didn't score well in 1st half improved sec half ..but time will tell .
I think 13 Million is about right for Hamer. He had a release clause of 18M which was not activated by anyone….so I think 13,14Million is about right…👍
The 18 million release clause has expired! Doubt Sheffield will NOT want to let him go at this stage unless they get silly money!….bit like us and Gnonto!

Sallai very injury prone
Don't agree 23/24 played 36 game's 22/23 played 26
21/22 played 31 not including International game's nothing wrong with them stats imo
@@TheGeneral_LUFCaccording to who? I think you may be confusing Sallai and Solomon.
Really fancy Sallai...... Competition for Joseph (I'm forgetting Paddy, Joffy & Piroe).
Sallai more of a winger. But don't be surprised to see Ramazani up top every now and then.
