Dirty Leeds

From what I gather he's a right sided firpo (though performed better than him in the Prem it seems). Good going forward but suspect at the back. One of their best players last season, and their fans reckon his defensive shortcomings are much less of an issue in the Champ.

Seems we're getting a top Champ level attacking full back with potential to be competent in the Prem, for £5m. Their fans generally think it's poor business from them so I assume it's good business on our part.

Anyway, I'll have to see the fucker play before making a judgement on whether it's good business. Though, judging by our recruitment last summer, I'm optimistic about him.

A few comments that sum up the Sheff perspective:

"Relatively low fee, good player, young with potential to increase in value, unlikely to be replaced with similar quality.
Sounds about right"

"Leeds had our legs down with this one. We won't be able to sign a replacement of the same quality for the same price"

"It's a bad move for us , decent at this level Bogle ...
This might bite us on the Arse"

Wober coming back according to Farke. Mentioned him in the same breath as Aaronson, saying it will be good to have these guys back.

Whilst begrudgingly I do admit he could be a player for us, he was supposed to be hanging around last season. Still not convinced he won’t fuck off.

No loan clause so won't have a choice I guess, unless we accept a bid. Probably put a transfer request in the second we reject a bid mind.

Bogle confirmed

Logically i don’t have a problem with them two coming back. We don’t know full story but I’ll assume they wanted to play higher level to play in Euros and yank one.

Chatter intensifying around Gnonto & Summerville. Everton banked 50m for Onana. Not sure if/how collapsed takeover affects any possible move.

Yup. Also according to Romano, West Ham have submitted a bid for Summerville.

A lot of talk about Rak-Sakyi coming in from Palace if we lose a winger.

They enquired. That ExWhUEmployee says the deal is too expensive. At the moment.
Saints in for that Palace lad apparently.
Thing is, if we’re playing 3-4-3 you’ve got Aaronson, Summerville, Gnonto, James & Rutter vying for 2 spots. Can see both going and 1 winger coming in tbh.

He also said Roma are interested!
Potless cunts would be after another fucking loan no doubt.
