With plenty of Leeds United fans being happy to criticise owner Andrea Radrizzani for a perceived lack of investment during the summer transfer window, Managing Director Angus Kinnear has been giving an interesting round of interviews this week and he had a pointed comment when it came to any belief that we were selling off players simply to line the owners pockets.

The full interviews are worth a read and Kinnear is right to point out that if it was only ever about money in, then why did we turn down an easy bid of £20million for Kalvin Phillips as few clubs at this level would ever reject such a proposal.
His words certainly won’t win all fans around, but they should bear them in mind in my humble. There were some disappointing departures but if manager Marcelo Bielsa has made his mind up on who and who won’t feature this year, and ultimately who he thinks is key and those who won’t make it, Bielsa will be both right and wrong but it’s pointless keeping them around.
Lol, who was bidding for Hernandez? Real Madrid?

People need to flush the negativity out of their lives. Radz wants what's best for the club, not just his pocket.
