The LUFC Breakfast Debate (Fri 21st Sept)
Posted: Fri Sep 21, 2018 7:17 am
Good Morning Everyone
Patrick Bamford has been talking to Popey about his relief that he does not have to undergo the knife.
This will be the difference between 4 months out of action or 9 months out of action.
Fortunatly the posterior cruciate ligament damage which the 25yo sustained in the 5-0 thrashing of Bristol City did not need surgey, meaning Bamford should be back in action early in the New Year.
Ex Welsh legend Craig Bellamy has been speaking on the Sky Sports Debate Programme about Leeds!
“I’ve been very impressed from day one when they beat Stoke in the opening game,” Bellamy told the Debate programme (45:50). “Leeds are such a big club, they need to be in the Premier League. It’s been messy over the years, the managers that have come in, the signings…I’ve seen one or two players for Leeds and thought, ‘they can’t play for Leeds, they’re not Leeds players, this is Leeds United’.
“In the summer they went and got Bielsa. I was shocked. Bielsa is the holy grail and what we believe coaching is. Bielsa is that type of guy who does projects no one else does.”
Does Tyler Roberts deserve to start against Birmingham? 2 goals in 2 games - not bad a all especially when you consider Ekuban got one goal in 20 appearances!
Same question about Foreshaw. He is fit to start?
Leeds United are keeping tabs on Kasimpasa star striker Mbaye Diagne, according to reports in Turkey.
Leeds, Hull and Bournemouth were all eyeing up the 26-year-old during the Summer but interest cooled down over problems with a work permit.
Turkish-Football now report that Leeds scouts have been monitoring Diagne this season. They are expected to be attendance when Kasimpasa host Alanyaspor in the Turkish Super Lig this weekend.
Diagne has recently applied for an EU passport after spending several years in Italy and that could see paperwork sorted in time for the January transfer window.
