Maybe, but they’ve had plenty good performances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aribo Kamara Jack seems like the preferred 3, which wasn’t really the case last year. Far more mobility and creativity, than when Davis or Arfield were in there. Aribo in particular I think will be like a new player. He looks like he’s bulked up physically and has had a year to settle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We keep going on about the worse that could happen if a defender gets crocked, meanwhile we just watched defoe go off injured in a game leaving us with one striker who may or may not be arsed being here You say edmunson and bassey versus the scum, sheep and in Europe is bad, what about patterson, barker and stewart playing these 3 teams if tav, hagi and our strikers arent available Its all ifs and buts, we don't even play the tarriers till october, helander might be flying fit by then, but the fact is we are a week away from the season starting with pretty much the same forward thinking players that struggled to score for 2 months post winter break You're genuinely treating this like we've made this signing at the expense of others especially upfront. Nothing to suggest that's the case at all. The full back are important to our system. But if we're weak through our spine it'll not matter a fuck as teams will dominate play not us. We've unfortunately seen that when our best players in the central positions have gone off preseason. As a standalone situation weve just signed our most experienced CH, to give us 3 fit players that have played professionally at the top level, one of whom only minimally.

Edumunson is trusted. He is either going to be first choice or the backup for centre half. He will get plenty of game time next season, just as he was getting last season. Patterson was about 4th choice last year for a position with one player. As it stands he is now the backup to Tav, moving up in the squad dramatically.

Its just bewildering and wrong on this occasion 😁 I just don’t get why you would want to complain so much about signing a player for nothing who impressed so much at his last club that it literally transformed their season and who could add the experienced head that we have needed at the back for ages now. Do we have other areas that need addressed, yes. But we needed a quick fix plaster to cover for the Katic injury and this guy does that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What has he delivered so far to warrant trust and blind faith Because progress has been made. This was never going to be a case of walking in the door and winning the title. He's improved massively. We weren't a million miles away last season. His job was to stop 10......he's got another season at it. Guys like aribo have had a year to settle into this shithole of a league. I'm quietly confident gerrard and his staff can deliver us the title. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doron 118 Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Leeds united signed unknown Ben white from Brighton on loan last summer. He turned out to be the best centre half in the championship. Hope springs eternal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
