Hope he scores against them next season and sends them back downWhilst kissing the badge would be even funnier (but sadly won't happen these days).
It might do because they'd have booed him all game.

An article here says that GP states that he has more than enough defenders and that another would be surplus to requirement.
They say that he could be letting him stay at Leeds for the right price.
Liverpool were sniffing around as well.

I would love to see a link to where GP said that. Goes against everything that I have read from him about White
Was the article written by a Leeds fan perchance?
New Vision is the name of his football agents. He even had their logo in it. He’s trolling their fans

Nice picture of Ben on their website. Perhaps Leeds Utd fans should check out who’s kit he is wearing?
Maybe the context of GP's quote is that we have both White and Clarke joining the squad so it is clear that we have a surplus.
It doesn't necessarily mean he wants to get rid of White.

Now, this is the best reason offered thus far for me to return to football stadiums

Derby have been reported to be interested in taking Clarke back on loan next season. I would imagine we'd probably be interested too.
Really?
Players don’t often return to a club they’ve previously been on loan with. Look at someone like Jesse Lingard who was schooled at four Championship clubs, they need variety and different challenges.
My concern would be that Clarke could be indoctrinated in the ‘Derby Way’.
Is he too good for the Championship like White? If he is not to be in our 1st team squad, it might be that he is loaned elsewhere, I hear that Leeds Utd will be a centre back short for next season!
Liam Rosenior could be a big factor in that. And from what I can see not too much difference from what Derby are doing and what we are

Lingard is a strange one, he seemed to have lots of short term loan deals, all monthly or 3 month deals (when they existed) and no season or half season loans, he was in and out of Man Utd's match day squad around each loan move too.
I know it's rarer for a player to return to a club, we've had a few in the past play of us multiple times, Matt Richards is one that spring to mind immediately.
We've had Walton out at Wigan for two consecutive seasons, so it's not unheard of, obviously we were happy with his development there and they'd been promoted to it was a progressive move in terms of playing levels. There isn't much further up we can send Clarke without loaning him to another Premier League side, Derby will no doubt be towards the top end of the Championship before tailing off towards the end of the season, again. As [MENTION=3462]Springal[/MENTION] mentions they've also got Liam Rosenior as a first team coach so we know he's got at least one very good person around him that we can trust.

He struggled in the game he played there just before lockdown (when Phillips was suspended). Moved back after about 20. Seems daft really but I guess it just shows how good his ball-playing side of the game is.
Leeds are trying to deliberately de-value him by playing him out of position.

Why oh why oh why?
Def in DM today, started fine.
Currently the top-rated player on the pitch, according to Sofascore.
(also notable - after 10 minutes played, Bamford hasn't touched the ball once!)
Think it was made necessary by injury or suspension.

what attributes dees a defensive midfielder need that a centre back doesn't?

Going from CB to DM is a lot more difficult that you might think, you do a hell of a lot more running in CM and much more pressure on your passing, when you play CB a lot of the time you can pass the ball out without much pressure.
