Bielsa is a legend, he’s just casually sorting out his FM scouting papers in Costa Coffee. Hopefully he has one for Rob Holding and it ticks all the boxes.

Bislsa love details and stats so much football nerd.

I’d much rather get rid of Mustafi and Sokratis over Holding. He’s a good player that’s shown potential, need to remember he’s healing from a bad injury still. I think he’ll only get better next seaso.

We should get rid of all 3 of them. Holding's been just as bad.

We'd go into next season with 3 CBs who have no experience of the league and Luiz. 2 of them are very young as well who need to settle/ get comfortable with the language. It could get pretty chaotic early in the season.

Would sell 2 of the 3 for sure. I'd keep Holding cause his value doesn't drop if we sell him next year either.

What good is experience of a league if you still rarely put in a good performance? Food for thought.

It's not that rare though. Mustafi has improved under Arteta and Holding looks better the more games he gets. We have 10 games against teams that are better than us. Rest are still against run of the mill PL teams and EL teams (till about March).

Honestly, the criticism of Holding is a little over the top on here.
I'm not saying any of them are good enough as a long term solution. I'd have some insurance though. Holding keeps his value as an asset better than the other 2 and is probably on the lowest wages of the 3.

As long as it is a sale and not a loan, Holding to Leeds is a good move all round.

 

[krackpot]

AAh, the original wheeler-dealer. Never gets the respect he deserves.

[SingmeasongSong]

Yes please

 

[say yes]

Think this will be a smart pickup for Leeds.

Injuries have ruined his chances of making it here: we can’t wait around for him to be ready, but there’s definitely a decent player there.

 

[HairSprayGooners]

We have clubs interested in most players we want to get rid of which is good. Just need to negotiate decent fees now.

Honestly done envy Edu's job this window. Will add about 30 years to his life.

 

[Sebastes]

One can hope! Need to get rid of at least two of Holding, Sok, Mustafi, Chambers

 

[OnlyOne]

He doesn't really suit Leeds in my opinion.

Bielsa will make Holding a decent CB.

 

[Oxeki]

Bielsa will make Holding a decent CB.

Don't think he's a decent enough passer to play in a Bielsa team

 

[Marjorie]

£10-15m and he'll be a good pickup for them. Plenty of big game experience playing for a big club. Instantly becomes their main man at CB.

 

[truth_hurts]

Yes bloody please.
