Jerome Officially Signs

Not at all, but there's no obvious alternative playmaker to Wes. Howson is more of a box to box player, albeit an exceptionally good one.

Have some of you forgotten Jonny Howson ?

If Johnson can play like Pirlo in this division then looking forward to Howson playing like Messi, maybe these will become more commonplace:

Howson's started in Leeds' youth team as a striker and I think he's much more effective when he plays higher up the pitch, simply because he has that sort of goal in his locker. Remember the one against WBA the previous week? Sublime!

I would love to see Howson pulling the strings as a playmaker personally. Top player and could've been captain for me.

He may not be a playmaker but I think he can play at the pointy end of the diamond

Midfielder, but I expect that we may add another defender too (unless, of course, someone else significant leaves). I don't have an insight on this one by the way, its just my guess!

Think Bassong and Becchio will go on the last day. Everyone knows we want them out and will wait for a fire sale. I suspect we'll take a big hit on Bassong, but anything on Becchio is a bonus as we spent peanuts on him.

it was a swap for morrison who cost in region of £ 2 million so expensive peanuts.
