Romano has just confirmed Lavia fee to Southampton at 12mil. Now that is very high for a youth player with 1 first team appearance to his name. Puts the 7mil for Gyabi into context and probably explains why we chose that route.

Bayern Munich have told Barcelona they don't want any instalments in any deal for Robert Lewandowski and that they want all the money upfront in cash because Bayern believes that FC Barcelona won't exist in "one or two years time".

Tyler Roberts apparently is having a medical at the moment at QPR in a deal worth £4:5m.

Good points and something I've been thinking about over the last few weeks - Sooner or later the Bielsa EFL side would be history anyway - Players move on and players get old - Add to that those that are no longer of the quality that we need (And that is not meant to be-little them) - MB would be making changes in due course anyway - We have few of this EFL side now left, especially those that will be first X1 next seasonSelby White wrote:Good point think we have some very down to earth senior pro's that very much buy into the "side before self" philosophy.

Yet I feel all sides need an identity - The player(s) who is somehow the heart of the team - Tony Adams, John Terry, S Pearce, Stevie G etc etc - The guy who is part of the club thru' and thru' - Not clicky that they don't welcome changes, new players, but wear the badge with pride and integrity that the fans relate to - New players join a club and can become a favourite, Patrick Vieira for instance - So unsure how our new signings will blend in and who will lead the line - Hope we've not just purchased a bunch of players who wait each month for a wage check - as the NZ All Blacks say, 'wear the shirt with pride and leave it in a better state than you found it'. So here hoping the side before self policy continues

I’d be very happy with that amount if I’m honest. Good luck to him I’ve never knocked a Leeds player and never will.NottinghamWhite wrote:Tyler Roberts apparently is having a medical at the moment at QPR in a deal worth £4:5m.

Good luck to him. I felt for him at times last season when it seemed that nothing but nothing was going right for him. The worse it got the harder he seemed to rush and try and things just got worse. I did think that he should have been sidelined for a spell but he kept getting selected. Never stopped trying but basically bombed in the Premiership.ChilwellWhite wrote:I’d be very happy with that amount if I’m honest.

I think he'll do OK in the Championship and, who knows, might make an impression in the World Cup
