Sounds like Arsenal have emerged as a favorite to sign him. Really wish barca wasn’t so broke. Would be the perfect destination so we wouldn’t have to play against him twice a year.

Barca deal falls through and Raphina decides to stay verse a move to Arsenal. Phillips refuses a move to PSG move and stays as well. We win the league. Book it.

Ideally Raph stays till January and his value goes up after the world cup. Would be even nicer if he signed a new 3 year deal with a release clause.

Everyone’s pissed about a possible Traore signing. I don’t hate it for under $15M if possible. Anything more is stupid. Could possibly ball again under Marsch.

This KP deal to city is absolute trash. I am semi-melt.

Seems like we accepted the first bid without trying to get a little more. If it’s truly gonna rise to 50-55 then im ok with it. I like Adams but i think we should think a little more outside the red bull box and go for someone like Doucoure from Lens.

If Raph goes for anything under 60 I’ll melt

Seems to me if they accepted this then conversations must have been going on in the background with Kalvin, Man U, and Leeds.

If it comes out they took a low ball offer for him of course I will be pissed.

However, if the deal really does generate 50+ that’s about what I expected.

I was only okay with losing one of Kalvin and Raph, if we lose both I will melt regardless of how much the club gets in return. Sorry not sorry.

I am concerned that it appears that Leeds are looking like Red Bull premier league team. Hopefully the scope of players extends beyond that spectrum.

/end random thoughts on a Friday

I was hoping for $50M+ with how many teams seemed interested. The player swap helps I guess. Gyabi could be a baller for $5M. Who knows. KP also didn’t play a whole lot last season and was pretty bad at the end of season. Probably played a part in the price.

I think Raphina is gone this window with the ~$60M number being thrown around. We need PL starters.

If they reinvest in say Gakpo/De Ketelaere/ another midfielder I’ll be happy. So tough to replace an elite talent like Raph.

De Ketelaere can provide versatility for Leeds, who have also discussed Wolves’ Adama Traore and Cody Gakpo from PSV Eindhoven to fill the void that will be left by Raphinha’s expected sale. They want to add another midfielder, a left-back and an experienced goalkeeper with former Watford keeper Ben Foster one name under consideration.


The year is 2067 and we are still linked to Traore

Hopefully Traore only has daughters otherwise we could be linked to his sons in the next 20 years.

Just watching the brentford highlights, what a day. Raph was amazing that day, VAR was shite for calling Joffys shoelace offsides.

Sunday transfer market roundup

"I don't know what happened, you know?” Kenneh says. “We were losing 2-0, they had a man sent off and we managed to make it 2-2 before Luke Ayling scored that goal. Everyone on the bench erupted and everyone went on the pitch. When we were all coming back I saw the referee pointing to me, telling me to come over and he showed me a yellow card. I was like 'what?!' If you're going to show me a yellow at least show it to everyone else! Why was I the only one? I'll take it any day because we were celebrating a massive three points but it was strange that he only picked me

Kalvin and I were running side by side, together, on the pitch. Every time he saw me after he was laughing because he got away with it. I'll cherish those memories, experiences that will live with me forever. I'll cherish them, period.


Kevin Friend is a dick but thank goodness he sent off Raul in that game

Can you imagine all the opposing sides woman swooning over seeing Patty and CdK at the front of the Leeds attack next season?
