Albion set to bring in Leeds loan signing

[buller89]

Albion have lined up a loan swoop for Leeds United midfielder Ian Westlake.

The Seagulls are poised to land the 24-year-old for a month.

Westlake, who featured for Leeds at Withdean earlier in the season, will become the fourth Ipswich player past and present in Albion's ranks, joining Nicky Forster plus on-loan pair Matt Richards and Dean Bowditch.

Westlake was at Portman Road for four years before joining Leeds in August 2006.

Not a bad signing at all if you get him

 

[Frutos]

Anyone know where in midfield he plays?

 

[buller89]

Centre mid from what i remember. He is very useful

Between the back four and the strikers!

Between the back four and the strikers!

Oh my aching sides.

 

[SJ's Love Monkey]

Oh my aching sides.

Always happy to help!

Another ex Ipswich player. What's it with the club and the connection to Ipswich?

Moreover even if he does get here who loses out? McFaul obviously?

Centre mid from what i remember. He is very useful

He is? Our midfield is woeful and he is perhaps the most woeful of the lot. Hasn't started since early Jan and has been on the picth for one minute since.

A good signing by all accounts. Btw I saw an article on SSN about him a cople of years ago. He is supposed to be a really good swimmer apparently. Not that anyones interested! lol

 

[Brian Fantana]

He would be a great signing if we get him. Def a centre midfielder from what I remember. Creattive and good dribbler.

Thanks

He was regarded as the dog's bollocks a few years back when he was at ipswich. As Badger says, he can't not be an improvement on our current lot. Once again showing the chairman/manager's intentions of getting us promoted this season

I've just read he was part of the exchange deal that took Harding to Ipswich. "He lost his starting place to Seb Carole"...
Hmmm. Oh well a fresh face and all that, and competition for places is always good.

It's on the Argus website so there must be some truth in it.

If it does happen it'd be a great signing. Saw him play for Ipswich on several ocassions cos a friend of mine is a fan and I have to say he always looked the part - I'm shocked he is out of favour at Leeds.
