LEEDS REACH AGREEMENT FOR RODRIGO

Leeds are closing in on the signing of Spain international Rodrigo after reaching an agreement with Valencia.

The promoted Premier League club have yet to agree personal terms with the 29-year-old, who must still undergo a medical, but he is set to become the latest player to leave Valencia due to the Spanish side's perilous financial position.

Rodrigo scored eight goals last season as Valencia finished ninth in La Liga. He joined from Benfica in 2014, initially on loan before moving permanently the following year.

Heck that's a good signing. But could misfire like when Fulham signed Schurle, Seri and others for big bucks :old:

A striker who hardly scores. Our fans love to overhype other clubs signings I swear :lol: The same as when Fulham wasted a load of money on overrated, past it or average players when they were in the prem and so many on here were bumming them for it. Personally think Leeds will be straight back down but we will have to wait and see.

Fulham wasted loads because they like several other clubs use statistical analysis of a players performances to see if any good? As we know stats can be misleading... :old:

I do know him he has failed at every club his has managed in Europe before he took over you. He also failed massively as Argentina manager and couldn’t even get them out of the World Cup group stage. The most overatted manager of all time who has taken most clubs he has been in charge of backwards.

Here is his record of failure in Europe to add to his international failure

Espanyol- Only in charge for 9 games and only won 2 of them

Bilbao- Took a team that finshed 6th the season before he arrived and finished 10th and then 12th with them

Marseille-Failed to finish high enough to qualify for the champions league despite having the second biggest budget in France behind PSG

Lazio- Resigned without playing a game

Lille- Won just 5 of his 19 games in charge before being sacked.

Plus add in failing to get out of his group with Argentina at the 2002 world cup.

The most overrated manager of all time.

I’m sorry to say but the Leeds bloke is right.
I think he’ll score a fair few goals ( over 10 ) and Leeds will finish mid table.

Let’s hope not though because nobody likes Leeds

Given his record of failure I don’t see why you do.

Anyway we shall see at the end of the season but I fully expect you to be relegated.
