Although I agree he's the best of the four in question, and he should be good given his Dutch upbringing, I've totally changed my mind on his technical ability. He's tactically astute and versatile, yes, but he's also lost the technique and vision he had a few years ago and now seems to be a multi-positional Rudi Austin with only power and size on his side.SiMamu wrote:https://www.leedsunited.com/news/team-n ... ary-switch
De Bock loan move confirmed.
To follow on from what rigger said, Anita would probably be the one I'd be most willing to keep out of the remaining 4 - particularly due to his versatility.

I take it you're talking about the size of his arse ??
It's quite spectacular
He's only 5' 5" in height but he rivals Raheem Sterling in terms of explosive power from those thighs and glutes

Yep - that's why I compared him to Austin who I think was around the 5ft9 mark (although I must admit I hadn't realised Anita was quite that little!). Maybe I'm being unfair on him, I've just been a bit disappointed by his mediocre technique/distribution.rigger wrote:Leonickroberts wrote:Anita ... with only power and size on his side.

I saw him start last season in the away League Cup game against Leicester and thought he was quality on the night, definitely one of our better performers.
He played right back and was up and down the entire flank with bags of pace and energy. He was clean and decisive in his tackling and his distribution - both passing and crossing - was good too.
It's an obvious thing to say, but play him in his rightful position and he can do a job for us.
The fact that Bielsa plays an 18-year old midfielder ahead of him tells me he has no future at the club, though .. and right now who is anyone to argue with our head coach ?

He’d be better off staying and playing for the U23s.SiMamu wrote:http://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2018/08/22/re ... eadlineday

He wouldnt get a game with the under 23s as we have far better strikers playing for them than him.Otherworld wrote:He’d be better off staying and playing for the U23s.SiMamu wrote:http://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2018/08/22/re ... eadlineday

Being linked with Julian Foyth on loan again (source is the Daily Fail, so take it with a pinch of salt). I'd be chuffed with this - prodigious talent.
