He was brilliant. His finishes were a joy to watch and although it didn't fully work out for him I loved being able to see him live week in week out.

His chip against West Ham (and a 6ft odd David James) on New Years Day anyone?

Class

Thats just been on didnt he score a hat-trick or was that another time?

You can't really blame them though, where else will players of their ability get the hero status, big contracts and play in front of 20k+ every other week ? I think that's been our problem since we got relegated from the PL, especially the last season & half, when players come to Leeds they will think they've made it & their hunger + desire doesn't seem to be as it was at previous clubs - look at Andy Robinson as an example. He was different class at Swansea, he was club captain and played out of his skin week in week out, he comes to Leeds and his performances reflect what he is at ER - a squad player.

They might play at a higher level but very few will play for a club bigger than Leeds. Take Beckford for instance, there's no doubt he will play at a higher level than L1, but not for a bigger club than where he's at now.

I think we'll see a few move on once the season kicks in and they realise they won't be involved.
I know kandols nailed on for charlton once their take-over is complete!
P.s Could we have a new thread for the new season please MODS??
