I can sort of grasp the logic. Gil has actual potential & we probably want him somewhere where he plays week in week out, either so we actually end up with a big fee or he plays for us in the future. James/Adama would just be stopgap squad options, we don't care about their development much.

But it's a shit squad option & if we're in a position where we rely on James then we're fucked. He wasn't good enough to be a squad player at United & he's not good enough to start for Leeds. This isn't improving our depth.

You’re probably right but it’s a bullshit logic from the clubs point of view.

It’s all well and good signing shit home grown players for the sake of fulfillling the quota, but it’s not okay when it’s in a position where you might actually have to use said shit player.
 
A.Traore at least dribbles at high speed. Can beat his man from stand still position. Dan James is a definition of kick and run merchant. He significantly slows down if he has to actually dribble.

Dan James is absolute pushover when it comes to physical shoulder to shoulder challenge. He has no use to be converted to wingback. And as attacker he's fucking shit. Make Lucas Moura look like a consistent composed attacker in comparison.

All these James rumors are part of Levy’s master plan.

He’s putting out the James rumors so when we sign Adama instead fans will see it as a positive

Romano reporting something has happened is more than a rumour. His connections (especially when it comes to Spurs) are almost always spot on. I was VERY skeptical before he reported it but the 'rumour' has become something more substantial.

Get James, Traore , with Spence and Son we will have a shot at the Olympics 4 x 100 m relay, but we won’t challenge for the league . Obviously love Son and happy with Spence , but don’t rate the two running the first legs as footballers

Laughable with forest really. Sign 18 players and couldnt hit an aircraft hangar yesterday. Should have signed a striker.

Wouldn't go so far as to call it laughable. They brought on Dennis and Awoniyi. The team played fairly well. The lack of striker in the first half allowed them to dominate possession in the way they did, much the same as Wolves and Chelsea. Common factor in yesterday's game and vs Wolves, was that when these teams brought less possession oriented players onto the field we had a greater control of the game. Our defence is well drilled and maintained a good concentration throughout, denied them clear goal-scoring chances.
