Free agents are a waste of time at this stage, 16 games left. Any free agent is likely going to need at least a "mini pre-season" and then will, at best, make a few cameos off the bench.
Not necessarily - Kyle Edwards was a free agent but has been training for months.
 
It's certainly a risk to stand still but Leeds have the benefit of being the best team in the league by a distance, their major weakness is Meslier who has cost them a load of points this season. If they had Trafford in goal for example then they'd easily be 10 points clear of the playoffs, that seems the area they need to strengthen pretty urgently. Perhaps they're gambling that they go up and even better is available rather than pending money now for a smaller improvement but it is a risk, especially as those below have strengthened.

Sunderland look a good bet for a top 2 finish at 9/2 with Bet365, I'd be all over that if I weren't gubbed. Rigg, Neil, Bellingham and Le Fee is a pretty handy midfield.
My brother's a Leeds fan and he reckons they'd be better off playing without a keeper than having Meslier in goal
 
I sometimes wonder what Djavan Anderson is doing now. I think he’d fit into our Championship team under GR much better than being used as a bit-part player in Lge1.
 
Looking at the ins and outs the thing that strikes me is how much business Hull and Luton have done. New managers coming in recently like ourselves and have acted quickly in the transfer market.

At the top end I see Middlesbrough and Sheffield United have strengthened significantly and so have Burnley. I will whisper this quietly but I think Leeds are going to miss the boat again.

It may work and signings may turn out to be good but I think Luton have panicked a fair bit in this window. Their efforts to sign Kone summed it up for me.
 
I hope Helik does turn out to be a good addition to the squad but thus far with the needless foul against against Bristol which led to an equlising goal and the own goal against Burnley, he has cost us 4 points in just 2 games.

Probably still laughing about the amount of wage he was receiving whilst being here. For all the talk of him being a decent player, there’s collective amnesia about him being one of highest-paid players at the squad

Burnley would have pushed more to score if Helik doesnt put it in his own net, so I am not holding that against him. On top of that, it would only be 3 points, 2 against Bristol City, and 1 against Burnley.

Well we don't know what he was paid, so that's not very relevant. I thought he was OK but flattered to deceive, he generally lost the ball on his epic dribbles.

On the same subject, am I right in thinking that Robinson gave Stuart Findlay a 4yr contract which still has over a year to run. Plus he cost us approx. the same fee as Goodwin.
