Hasn't it been extended for a year?

Just had a search and if The Athletic are to be believed we triggered a 1 year extension clause.

Yes, we can sell players on our own terms now which is where you want to be.

To an extent. If they really want to leave then there isn't much you can do really. I think we'll have a fight to keep Mane if Madrid come knocking. And perhaps Alisson too.

Yeah, but it's from a position of strength because of the massive fees it would require. If players want to leave so bad, we shouldn't want to keep them anyway.

Sergino Dest -- make it happen Mike, you owe me one.

[sir roger]

As long as he is nothing like his namesake the Brazilian striker who was like Ricky Lambert but less agile.

Salah and Mane shared the golden boot last season and Salah destroyed the world before that.

 

People seem awful quick to forget Salahs contributions. He's great. Is he perfect? No. But is it worth selling him to buy some huge expensive player that has a risk of not fitting in? Not for me. We have other areas we can improve first. Namely, creativity in the attacking midfield positions.

If that player is Mbappe, then yes. Almost anybody else... probably not.

This guy, aRdj

 

Played for us during2014-15.

We've been linked to a lad (21, I think) called Ben White who is a centre back on loan at Leeds from Brighton. 

 

He's been an ever-present for Leeds this season. Bielsa is no mug and he must think he's good enough if he picks him regularly. Apparently, our scouts have been "blown away" by some of his performances. Plus, he looks good on the obligatory YouTube video, with a few Leeds fans commenting on how impressed they've been by him since he stepped into the void left by former Leeds cult hero Pontus Jansson. 

 

He looks good. £20m replacement for Lovren, according to the press.

Listen to Nelly-Torres... he knows. The guy spotted Maguire.

If a centre back can look good under Bielsa, he can look good under anybody. 

[Lee909]

He would be mad to join us at 21. 

Unless Gomez wanted out because he isn't getting games.

I can't be arsed checking but I'd be amazed if Ardj wasn't banging the Lambert drum in the seasons before he signed.

Nah, too cheap for aRdj. He's from the Peter Ridsdale school of negotiation: "£7.50 for that breakfast, sir? I'l give you £12.99, and we shall never speak of this embarrassing exchange ever again. Good day, sir."

He is absolute quality, I watched him quite a few times for Newport County when he was on loan and he was excellent, he reminds me of Agger...

very good on the ball and just has that calmness about him, I can see why we are looking at him...

 

A mate of mine is a Leeds season ticket holder and said he’s different class, all sounds good.

No offence to Dunk and Duffy, but if he’s that good how on earth is he not starting every game for Brighton?!?

Sunday Supplement mongs are sticking it to James Maddison for going to a casino while England were playing. Really knifing him in the front, they are.

Am I not getting some casino joke here? You can’t have just compared James Maddison to Fernando Redondo?
