Zebbys Leeds United General discussion

We say 50m easy. But we have a history of getting bummed in the selling market.

Can see Serie A clubs playing silly bollocks with us. Trying to get him on't mega cheap.

Maybe someone like Newcastle would come in for him. No pissing about, ere's £50m and an extra £10m cos its a lovely day kinda thing.

[Skippy]

It's just a nightmare, don't worry.

In terms of the next four games, I don't hate the idea. Just need something/ someone to make them have a fucking go. Bowyer would be a good motivator, wouldn't he?

No idea mate. Don't know much about him (apart from his playing days). Had a quick look on wiki after seeing article and he's basically had 2 jobs and got sack from both pretty quickly iirc

My memory is that he did a really good job at Charlton and they were desperate for him to stay. Got them promoted.

I'm not saying he's a good long term solution. Just as far as random names that might agree to coming in for four games and likely be relegated, at least the fans like him and he was a fiery type that might be able to get the players up for 1 or 2 of the games.


Seems like it's not a real link anyway. Someone's just thrown the name out there.

Ah rite, didn't know he did well at Charton. Yeah I think it's bollocks. But ya never know, this is Leeds after all. Nothing surprises anymore.

Serie A clubs do nothing but silly bollocks when it comes to fees. Roma (despite agreeing) to something 15m euros for Llorente are now trying to renegotiate for well under 10. They have form for it. Avoid at all costs. If it’s City, charge them the Earth. They had mates rates on Kalvin.

Both jobs, Charlton & Birmingham under ‘trying’ circumstances. To say the least.
Tbh he deserves better than just being cannon fodder for our last 4 games in this shit show.

True. Though if he did keep us up it would open a lot of doors for him. Look at Marsch, teams have been in for him solely cos he "kept us up".

But yeah, agree. If he had any sense he'd stay away from this pantomime.

[Skippy]

Let Skoobs take the City game, line Bowyer up to come in the next day, and Bowyer will fire the lads up to snag a win against Newcastle and West Ham, two of his former clubs.

I can see it. It's on.

Aye, sell Gnonto for a fortune and tell rest to fuckin rinse the league.

Saying that we'll need to buy a no.9 whether we go down or not and those fuckers ain't cheap. Fuck knows. Suppose Gyokeres is near the end of his deal so would be a reduced price.

Should have just forked out for him in January and not spent £35m on a project.

Yep. Been following him since you mentioned him a while back (I think it was you anyway). Then we were linked. He looks a player to me. Strong, good in the air, deceptively quick, eye for goal. Been scoring a few spectacular goals recently too. Dribbled past an entire back line t'other week but shot just wide. Would've been some goal.

It’s hard to tell exactly what this ‘project’ is. £30m. £35m. Either way he cost 750k a year earlier. It’s scandalous.
