A good dose of realism there Matt, except for the "If" 😉 . I agree Bielsa's not going to make wholesale changes, plus of course being Leeds the financial situation for the Premier League has gone to shit, so the normal £120M+ that gets bandied around will be substantially less. I think there's a decent chance we'll get out of JKA deal - I don't think the player will want to come and if he can't agree terms its off. Remember we gave Arsenal a decent game when we played so it shows we can compete at least with bottom half premier teams. Blades bought in a few players and are puling up trees, Villa & Fulham spent loads and went straight down.

If we go up - we'll need to be realistic about what we can spend £15m of the kitty has already been spent on Costa and another £18m will go on Augustin whether we want him or notAssumiing we want Harrison and Meslier for the pre-agreed fees thats another £10m So we have spent £43m and we are still a Ben White short of the current team. Factor in the need for a goalie and striker in addition to the new CB wouldnt be much short of £100m to keep the team similar to what it is. Bielsa probably wont want loads of new players anyway Matt On Wednesday, 15 July 2020, 10:21:53 BST, Alec McQueen <alec...@gmail.com> wrote: Fck is right!! If we do get promoted, we are gonna have to do some very clever dealing in the market, and bloody quick! Otherwise we are back down straight away. I hope our owner has got his chequebook ready... _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: https://mailman.gn.apc.org/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org Find us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/leedslist/ Dorigo's Right Buttock... _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: https://mailman.gn.apc.org/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org Find us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/leedslist/ Dorigo's Right Buttock...
