    Apparently both Brenden and Tyler have relegation clauses. Hope they find different homes and Leeds becomes Wrexham.

    pulisic needs a smaller club

    he just has to get over the fact he isn't that dude at a big club and never will be

    MOTM in a UCL semi-final at the Bernabeu. He’ll never be a super club’s best player- maybe not even one of their five best- but he’s already shown he can be “that dude” at the highest levels from time to time.

    That’s not good enough to play at that level full time.

    good from time to time isn’t good enough

    i know dumping on our players is a hobby, but he played there more than one season

    so he was so good at Juventus that they were struggling they let him go out on loan….he then went to Leeds and was poor they got relegated. U can complain but this is reality. Stating the truth is not dumping in a player. Puli sic is going to be sold at a huge loss, Juventus is going to sell Weston, Aaronson is going to be in a nontop 5 league or the championship next season. Weah barely plays, dear doesn’t play, scaly is riding the bench at the end of the season.

    All these things are true pretending these things aren’t happening doesn’t help anything lol.

    So you’re saying every UCL semi-finalist has 15 world class players?

    Most of all of that is true and the lens you’re seeing it through fits. But there’s just as much evidence to the contrary when you say Pulisic can’t hack it at a big club. He’s been at a UCL contender his entire career. I don’t get the characterization of him specifically.

    1 - All the players Chelsea bought the last 2 years will be sold for a loss.
    2 - Please connect how Weston was supposed to save Leeds from being relegated. Please explain why you think a midfielder added to a terrible team halfway through the season was supposed to save them.
    3 - Explain your logic that Aaronson won't even be playing in Ligue1 next season.
    4 - Or just admit you're talking out of your ass (probably from your mom's basement) and saying dumb stuff just to annoy others on here.

    I'm seeing a few Tyler Adams links to my club Newcastle.

    Seemed to be one of Leeds best players last year. We need midfielders and a proper defensive midfielder as we are short in that area and have champions league next year

    He does have Champions League experience based on his time at Leipzig. Scored the winning goal in the quarterfinal against Athletico Madrid and played in the semifinal.

    not what im saying

    im saying pulisic had trouble getting off the bench of a team that finished 12th and that was with three different managers so it wasn't one guy with a dislike of americans.

    1)ok I give up pulisic is the best player in world
    2)by playing better?
    3)he had an awful season, what would you be looking for that aaronson would fit the profile.
    runs a lot
    not good with the ball at his feet
    runs a lot
    poor vision
    runs a lot
    poor finisher
    runs a lot
    ???
    4)you may be right we'll see if if RM or Bayern jump into the pulisic or mckennie pool. bellingham was just sold for over 100 million you have to think mckennie should go for atleast that as good a season as he had according to you. Pulisic you have to think between 125-175 million atleast its going to take a big club to afford that. Oh I did laugh at this though its funny to think im saying pulisic has a poor season and is being sold for pennies on the dollar because im trying to upset posters here lol. Whatever you do don't read his quotes on his season it may be too much for you(because I know you didnt watch lol)

    one question what do you think of the rumors that chelsea is looking to offload him for 20 million? why so cheap for one of the great talents in the world after such a successful stint at chelsea that seems like bad business unless ur right and they really are looking for for well over 100 million.

    1 Which Chelsea players will be sold for a profit? They are a disaster and everyone there had a terrible year. Why are you only focusing on Pulisic?
    2 That's your solution? How exactly would Leeds play better as a team (enough to not get relegated) and score more goals by only adding Mckinney? Please spell out your plan.
    3 - You don't like Aaronson. Ok. So what? Your "play better" comment shows your limited ability to break down a game and a players skills set. No idea why you'd think European scouts agree with you.
    4 - Chelsea had 30 players on their first team roster. They lost tens of millions on the Lukaku disaster. What makes you think Chelsea or any other club makes "good" business decisions? Why do you think managers and sporting directors buying and selling of players is motivated by "good business decisions"?
    Soccer clubs do not operate based on profit or loss decisions. They operate on trying to win games next season. That's it. And usually the "losses" clubs generate are smoke and mirrors that are really based on money the principle owner "loans" to the club that they know they will never give back. Only a handful of clubs have gone bankrupt or folded in the 100 years of professional soccer, out of hundreds. No other business in the world operates like that. Look at the S&P 500 from 50 or 100 years ago and see how many of those companies no longer exist. Professional soccer is not a normal business.
