    Almost 11 and a half years for me, seems many of us landed around the same time. Plus many didnt come here they went to other place and some of us did both and then some of us chose one or the other

    Not scientific but transfermkt.com - transfer rumours - Leeds now has only two movers on the upscale. Kalimuendo 63% and Nicolas Raskin with all the others like Castellanos etc falling. Smoke without fire?

    I would be very happy if we picked these two up, but it would mean Phillips deffo going if Raskin comes

    We’ll have to disagree on that as well.

    I expected Phillips to go and Raphinha to stay until January. My feeling was if Phillips goes we need to spend the £50m on top of the £42m already spent. But if Raphinha goes too should we spend his £50m too or would we be happy with the £92m spent….. it would mean making near on £60m profit

    I think we need 2 more plus a back up keeper, than if either KP or Raph go, 1 each to replace them, problem then we'd need an excellent pre season as potentially over half the team would be making their debuts

    Not sure we have to spend all the money (if we get it) in this window though Doc. There's also the opportunity to see how the squad performs for the first few games and possibly make a couple of last minute additions before the window closes at the end of August.

    To be honest though nobody really knows who we're looking at and we might suddenly make a record signing if the right player becomes available.

    By the way did anyone notice how left footed Marc Roca is ? Makes me wonder if I've made a mistake making sure my son's two footed as we've put years of practice into making his weaker foot (left) nearly as good as his right. Perhaps all those hours would have been better spent making his stronger foot even better as so many top professionals can barely make a pass on their weaker side.

    I will only be happy if we’re dramatically better than last season. That’ll be some achievement if our quality players are both sold

    Said this before that Radz said we would spend the same in seSon 3 as we did in season 1, so the logic to me was we were planning on spending big. Yet I hope the £100m isnt going to be funded from sales, which means the club would have saved £100m. Yes great business if we get a great bounce and are much improved without Rapha and Phillips, but the likeleyhood?
