You are out of touch with things. You concentrate on hovering around a point or so above relegation with your great youth system and we will worry about our transfers. You had a good offer for Ben White but have stuck a laughable £50m tag on him. No one else has come in for him. Id have taken the money Leeds offered but your chairman spat his dummy out because he didnt want to sell him to us. What a guy!!

Who says so ?

Nothing much more nauseous than hearing re-cycled red top rubbish in these situations.

You see, I could reel off their team, no problem. (or that of almost any other championship club). Unlike these trolls not everyone is so ignorant and arrogant as to ignore or discount everything outside of their own club.

Meslier /Casilla, Cooper, Berardi, Kilch, Davis, Ayling, Philips, Alioski, Hernandez, Bamford, Shackleton, Gotts, Harrison,

To be fair, thats a decent Championship team. smile.

You’d have taken the money Leeds offered? Huh? So you don’t rate Ben White or you do? See how confused your logic is.

Fact is, real talk. You wouldn’t sell him and you know it. And for the same reasons we’re not selling. You’re just upset you’re not getting your way.

Never mind, go and start some more petitions. Your fan base’s collective delusion has been fantastic entertainment as far as we’re concerned.

It is hilarious really.

Leeds: here’s a loan offer with an option to buy
Brighton: he’s not for sale, it’s loan only
Leeds: ok

(End of the season)

Leeds: here’s a bid for £20m
Brighton: rejected. he’s not for sale
Leeds: here’s a bid for £24m
Brighton: rejected. He’s not for sale.

Leeds fans: OMG Brighton are disgustingly greedy! WTF he hasn’t even played in the PL yet, not fair, he’s only worth £25m.

Brighton: .... ok. He’s not for sale

Leeds fans: #freebenwhite Bielsa made him, he’s
Leeds through and through [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24]

Haha, you can only laugh at shit like this. He's not for sale, end of, he's always been in our plans. He hasn't spat his dummy out over anything. Laughable how many Leeds fans don't understand the purpose of the loan system in developing players.

Yeah signing the likes of lallana really shows that we're keen on continuing finishing a point around relegation. Your squad is shyte in terms of prem quality as it stands, miles behind ours.
I forget Bielsa can turn water into wine though

They wouldnt take 30 million from Villa, last summer for Kalvin Phillips, a player who'd never kicked a ball in the PL.

One year later and our player, who was their player of year and we're meant to take 20 odd million from them because they think that's their fair price for White.

The funniest part of deluded Northchattys post is the 'pot-kettle-black', first 7 words - "You are out of touch with things".

Yeah and therefore Kalvin Philips wanted to go to Villa. A club only makes an offer if the player wants to move.

Yes but they made him... or something like that

Leeds fans are having enormous difficulty coming to terms with the "new reality" when it hits them in the face. Teams like Brighton are no longer their inferior, things have changed massively since they were last in the ascendancy. They have been given a sniff of something by the mercurial Bielsa but their problem is that, being mercurial, he's likely to jump ship on a whim despite all the cloth capped whippet love coming his way. These two factors breed a strong sense of insecurity which comes to a head when discussing issues like Ben White.

Leeds have been offered Batshuyi by Chelsea for 25 million, according to a Chelsea blogger.

Leeds fans are complaining that’s overpriced cos he only has 1 year left on his contract.

The "Bielsa made him" is the biggest delusion of all. He helped along the way for sure but you don't make a Championship winning CB overnight. It takes about 22 years apparently.

Even though I think he'd be fine going to Leeds or Brighton (no idea on his actual preference), the Leeds Bielsa set up is clearly unpredictable/unstable and involves no long term thinking.

I wanted to ask you guys if you know anything about transfer requests?

My understanding is they are a statement of intent but nothing more. They don't affect the contract, except the player loses money.

You can refuse to play. Effectively "going on strike". But unless you are already on Neymar wages and integral to the first team I don't think you have much leverage.

Also it's a big red flag for a 22yr old on the cusp Premiership football to already be trying to manipulate his club.

Can someone tell me if I'm right, wrong or somewhere in between?

EDIT: I read this but it didn't give me all the answers I was seeking.

Spot on with this post, they are already making out they are going to take the premier league by storm and even seen some posts stating “Sheffield United found it easy, so we will be fine”.
The arrogance is astounding.
