Signed a new contract in the summer so Leeds would have to pay good compensation to get him. I doubt he'd leave with them leading the erevidise and a chance for first league title in years.

Stadt Posted 7 February 2023 Share Posted 7 February 2023 Leeds squad is fine, I’d rather have theirs than Everton, Southampton and Bournemouth’s. Slot will probably quadruple his salary too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a pretty exciting core of under-25 talent, an incoming ownership group that seems keen to spend, and their GD and even more their xGD indicate they’ve been very unlucky. If one believed that luck was going to balance out a new manager would look good even if they didn’t do anything to deserve it. If Slot is really keen to get to the PL I could see where Leeds would be an interesting prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think it seems like a bit of a stick or twist situation when, barring a complete tail-off in the next three months, he'll have suitors in the summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PL is the place to be. It took Ten Haag a surprisingly long while to get a move after doing so well at Ajax so he’s leapt at the chance in just the same way Emery and Lopetegui have. He’s already worked with Sinisterra and Summerville (I think) too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye but Ten Hag moved in the summer and the other pair came over in the autumn with the knowledge they'd at least get a window (and backing) to identify any weaknesses. I know there's still a fair chunk of the season left and the table is so condensed but the timing seems a bit off. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bird in the hand. Who are his suitors going to be? Us, maybe? West Ham, if you think Moyes will survive the season. Chelsea is out there and a siren’s song to be sure, but they seem like kind of a poisoned pill at this point. Would he rate us or WH ahead of Leeds as a prospect? At the very least it’s debatable, and there’s no guarantee those jobs will be open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We want you in the summer.’ Obviously nothing is written or league status guaranteed, but things like this will happen. Not necessarily us, but it wouldn’t surprise me if someone had a word. He’s gonna be hot property once the merry go round starts later on in the season/ in summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had he been happy to go to a Leicester/Leeds/W.Ham etc, he’d have had the opportunity to be in the PL a lot earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeg67 Posted 8 February 2023 Share Posted 8 February 2023 (edited) Looks like it's going to be Andoni Iraola (which I can only assume will be quite a come-down for Leeds fans after the Stot rumor). Iraola is an interesting prospect, and certainly I'd go there before recycling one of the usual PL mediocrities. But it's interesting that Leeds fired one high-press manager, replaced him with another, fired him and is now looking at another who uses basically the same tactics. Iraola even played for Bielsa.

Leicesterpool Posted 8 February 2023 Share Posted 8 February 2023 There's one rumour that possible James Milner could be a candidate he's already got his coaching badges plus Leeds man anyway. I doubt this would happen but could anyone see him hanging his boots up at Liverpool to join Leeds as manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s gonna be hot property once the merry go round starts later on in the season/ in summer. And anyone associated with professional football (and in particular the EPL) for 10 mins or more knows what promises and words of honour are worth. I suspect he's not made it to where he is now by being a gullible fool who is easily conned by the snakeoil salesmen masquerading as responsible owners. If he's offered it he could sign a 6 year contract and leave in 6 months! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
