I am a Banana 0 Posted January 7, 2010 it is a bit early in the window, so not grayson has enough time with his £2m to go out and buy another striker who will get them to the finishe line [:(] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 4,149 Posted January 7, 2010 If true it could well be good news for us: no doubt they have a replacement lined up, but a 20-goal-by-January striker is not easy to replace - there''s plenty of decent/succesful players who have struggled on moving to a new club (Billy Sharp immediately springs to mind).

Suffolk exile 0 Posted January 7, 2010 Think this is neutral for us. He could have been destabilising for them if he''d stayed when unhappy, they now have money to spend but they''ve lost a proven goalscorer at this level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Power Ranger Canary 0 Posted January 7, 2010 leeds i doubt will get 1million of that 2, they let delph go for 7million and got 750k on players according to some leeds fans with that they still couldnt even afford their own ground back, however were in no position to snigger as today it was said sale and leaseback could be a possibility for carrow raod.

spainboy 0 Posted January 7, 2010 And you could lose a damn could manager that could finish you lower than the playoffs. Losing Beckford wont really affect Leeds that much as they have the best defence in the league and a midfield that provides many chances to the striker. Any Billy Sharps,Hoopers Jamie Ward´s etc will find the net dont worry. Losing a manager mid season isnt good at all and these odds are becoming extremely shorter by the day. I would seriously bet Lambert will be a Burnley manager by the end of Jan. Good managers are hard to come by but I hear Dennis Wise is looking for work!!

Leeds have lost 1 game this season, game Liverpool a cracking game and beat the champions of England in their own back yard. All on spending 750k!!! Grayson is a genius and a very good manager.

I would much rather have a proven striker in the team than someone who may/may not live up to expectations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mason 47 1,924 Posted January 7, 2010 Personally I am eagerly awaiting Simon Grayson''s next revolutionary theorm and/or masterpiece of awe-inspiring architectural brilliance.I hear he''s also the chieftain of the QI elves- he''s a genius, you know.

Legend Iwan 30 Posted January 7, 2010 Surely if you have that kind of money to spend spainboy then your manager would have brought a new striker in before Beckford leaves? For a 30 something yr old, your assessment of your own club seems very misguided. Johnson is your next top scorer in the league on 7 less than half of Beckford, and your think he can instantly be replaced - you may have a tight defence but goals win games.

They must have made 6 figures just from the Man Utd game. Norwich are in trouble.Isnt it around 22m loss already.Hold tight to Hoolahan and Holt cos Ive a feeling they might be put in this window.

Leeds midfield creates a hell of a lot of them. Wait and see, you will be surprised what proven player Grayson will get in. Dont forget as well becchio has been out and when hedoes play he drops back a lot to leave Beckford up front. Becchio is a great partner for a decent enough goal scorer. Lee Bernard,Hooper,Sharp are just 3 linked options who will score goals and plenty of them in this league and are realistic targets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
