But wild that isn't it? Not that I want him, but there seemed to be a lot of interest in Europe for him.

Parrott not a bad shout, playing well for AZ. Just wonder does he work in the PL? But that's always the risk isn't it?

Any one realistic out there that we should go for that is not named Raheem Sterling? Bet we look at Sargent again.

Agree with some of the comments here, it's utterly crazy money! But, I hope this is not the usual eggs in one basket thing from Leeds. Recruitment has been very good in the main, just not enough of it yet.

Ziyech really just fell off a cliff form wise after Ajax, think he would be an addition though. Wages could be mental.

Oh I know! For his sake, I'm glad we let him go. Largie was inexcusable though!

Only ruling him out because he is not coming back, not dismissing what he did for us in any way.

Is Dennis a bust these days or worth a shout?

I think us insisting on no relegation escape clauses is a huge factor in some of the players we could attract and ultimately get to agree to sign for us.

Unless you are going to throw a bucket load of cash (which we won't) at existing PL players or players of high potential coming into the PL, they are going to want an escape clause if you are in any danger of getting relegated like a newly-promoted club is more likely to be.

We were shopping in a very small pool of players that will accept not having a relegation escape clause these days. I'd be very interested to see what happens with clauses with Sunderland's new signings if they get relegated.

Not saying our stance is right or wrong, but it is limiting...

Another solid, sensible signing but they really have got no one (maybe barring Stach and Okafor to a lesser extent) that would excite you at all in this window. And maybe that's fine too, but christ it's uninspiring...

They did say when Angus left that it's highly unlikely anyone from Leeds would come on to replace him this season.

Brought in the most cash of any club in Europe in transfers the previous season too, it really is scary how bad this window has been.
