Three little words.
That’s all it took for Leeds United fans to be sent into a sense of panic last night.
With the transfer window set to close next Friday, time is slowly running out for clubs to get the last few bits of their business done. For Leeds fans though, it looks as if ‘a few bits’ won’t be good enough, they want more than that.
Beren Cross of LeedsLive proclaimed that United were ‘all but done’ when it comes to this summer’s window. More than likely in an act of trying to calm people down, he did later clarify that ‘all but done is not the same as all done’, however, the horse had already bolted and the Elland Road faithful were not happy with what they read.
Having spent the majority of the summer clamouring at the board for them to sign a centre-back, then after Kemar Roofe’s injury a centre-forward, the implication that they were perhaps one or maybe two signings away from their summer business being done did not sit well with them, and there was one man in particular that they were focusing their anger on.
absolute joke

£20m made, £250k spent. But nobodies allowed to say this as you aren’t a real fan and should be grateful as RaDz BoUgHt ThE StaDiuM.

Joke. @andrearadri trying to do it all on the cheap. Cost us promotion last year, don’t look strong enough this year

We wouldn’t spend £15m if Messi was available for that amount. We missed out last year because of a small squad and failure to spend and strengthen in the transfer window. Lack of quality’s signings at CB and striker will cost us again. Why can’t they see it?

Like Bielsa but how him and the owners don’t think we need more players with out paper thin squad is to naive

Christ. We're in a worse position than we were a year ago. Should have gone for it this season, backed Bielsa, a couple of additions to the squad we had would have been enough. Fingers crossed he works his magic a bit better this season

Although there was one fan who seemed to be on the owner’s side during all this.
It’s embarrassing to read so called Leeds fans just slating the owner and players! We finished 3rd last year and played some of the best football in over a decade but some how within 2 months, everyone hates radz and bamford ????????♂️ get a grip and support our team #LUFC
