They're a different beast with Mateta, Eze and Olise all fit. 5 goals last time out, and pace all over the pitch. It looks like their new manager has started to bed his ideas in as well. Definitely not a banker

Obviously But that wasn't the point. The point is that he categorically says the measure of him being a top player in his own eyes is winning things. If we don't win anything, loved or not, he's off. It might be 2-3 seasons down the line, but....

That struck me as well. People are worried about Bruno and Isak leaving for bigger clubs. Gordon sounds more ambitious than anyone

Fuck, he's seriously impressive!

Gusto is starting to look like a decent buy as well. No question they’ve spunked a lot of money on some very ordinary players though.

🤯 He’s got the composure of a 10 year old

Jackson is absolutely toilet! How the fuck much did they pay for him?

Gallagher is one of the league's best pressers and consistently covers more ground in PL games than any other player. If we are after him, I suspect that's why. Very underwhelming signing if true, but there will be method to the madness

He's had a crap season and has exhibited an awful attitude since Teg Haag joined. It's clear he doesn't want to play under him but he's not mature or professional enough to suck it up. There's absolutely no way he justifies a place in the England squad when you have the likes of Gordon, Foden, Grealish, Palmer and Saka as your other options. I was a Rashford fan I might add, but this season he's been an embarrassment.

Dead?

Why keep him as backup when Miley has already shown he has far more potential? We'd be better to sell him, recoup the homegrown player money and keep developing Miley. We know what Longstaff is already, and he's not going to get any better.

His decision making already looks a hundred times better than Jacob Murphy's.

I didn't know anything about him before he went to Liverpool but the way people were talking about him, he sounded like the next coming of Maradona!. He's been very good but I wouldn't say he's fully lived up to the huge billing. Maybe just highlights how much of a leveller the Premier League can be.

When was the last time Eddie fast-tracked a young player into the first team though? Every 18 year old we've signed recently has gone out on loan or spent the best part of a season on the bench. Miley was brought in due to an injury crisis, otherwise he'd have been nowhere near the first team. Gray definitely has more first team experience than those we've signed previously but i'm still not he'd be considered first team material.

If he comes here, he won't be going near the first team for probably a whole season. If we could buy him and loan him back to Leeds for a season, that could be attractive all round?
