He is without doubt an openly England/English hating person.
He doesn't have a good word to say about England. He has been this way since I first saw him.
Anyone agree/disagree?
Interestingly, for you guys over t' pond, Lala is a colloquial term for being out of touch with reality as in Lalaland. From your comments it would suggest that Lalas is appropriately named. Either that or he is a chinese lesbian and proud of it.

So Orta tries to get cute and change the deal at the last minute . Throws out the Loan/Purchase Option for consideration. And this is Wes's PR surrogates expressing that they are not happy. They want a full transfer now. Would not be surprised if this were the feeling of Juve as well. But the pressure has been put squarely back in Orta's court. Let's see if he can get it over the line. I have my doubts. Seems like another CDK or Gakpo game.

He has basically said that the 49ers helped set this up and then stepped back and let the natural order take charge (Orta named specifically).

Seemed problems started when the two clubs weren't quite on the same page transfer fee wise and thats when a loan was suggested. Juventus then dug in (if he does well on loan they could get far more money) and we didn't want a loan without a buy clause.

Then when things started to go wrong the 49ers phoned Leeds and basically said "what the hell are you doing"
And he said this whilst quoting that.


49ers group made that call to Leeds and said the f**k are y’all doing blowing this they move like the mafia

The difference seems to be that McKennie genuinely wants to come to Leeds, while CDK and Gakpo were always looking over their shoulder for CL teams.

You do realise Orta doesn't pay for players himself, which means he's answerable to the board? It won't have been Orta changing things assuming any of it is actually true... it will have come from the board as a whole.

Yes, I'm aware. It was a hot take based on the tweets. We'll see what happens.

Not enough goals and assists in this chap for my liking.

If we want another Duracell bunny get James back.

Fair enough. Forest haven’t bought a player for 25 minutes so they must be having withdrawal symptoms

McKennie's mate has given credit for this to the 49ers.

A decent player to add to the squad. Only saw him play for the USA in the world cup but he looked good then, time will tell i guess.
