Leeds rumoured to be in for him for £20m after Barca decided not to sign him, would love to see him at the Albion ruining other teams instead of us for a change. A certain Mr Burn wouldn’t be very happy to see him back in the PL :)

That would be such a Leeds United signing.
Up there with Dan James, Junior Firpo and Diego Llorente.

The Leeds fans are full of it when they sign the players and they then suss out what they've actually got for their money about 6 months later.

Hard to imagine us signing a player so one dimensional. (and shite)

One trick pony. Can't see GP wanting him. Or needing him.

I’d hate it if we signed him. It would mean GP is not the manager of our club anymore.

It’s obvious he does not have the high level quick passing game required at Barca, he spent a lot of time on the Wolves bench for this reason.

Sadly, he only played well in a minority of games for Wolves, generally it was against us. So if we signed him, the only goals he’d be scoring would be own goals!

As others said, doesn’t seem like a Potter player at all.

Agreed. I’d go as far as saying he’s one of the most un-Potter like player I can think of.

Interesting player and one I'd be quite happy to have in my 25,especially with the 5 sub ruling,Sanchez can smash a pass on a sixpence and no defender I've seen would catch him,trouble is what happens next! I reckon he'll end up at Newcastle because his fee will be loose change for them and as a impact sub he will cause some havoc for teams who happen to be 1 nil up with 15 to play.
I don't think he's shyte,I doubt a manager he's played under even bothered finding out if he can do anything other than run fast,Potter would bring out the best in him I've no doubt,not somebody I'd expect us to sign but I'd be more than happy to see him try and fit into one of the teal blue away shirts this season.

He can run fast, and that’s it. No thanks

That’s the reason why Leeds are interested in him, give it 6 weeks and he’ll have a pony tail.

While a £20m fee is probably realistic, what also needs factoring into this is the ongoing and significant rise in the cost of cooking oil, as analysed here by The Washington Post.

In the current climate, there's a very real risk for whoever has Traore on their books: it could rapidly become a financial black hole.

For that reason alone, I'm out.

20m? That’s the equivalent of at least 2 Eighteen year old South American wonder kids that none of us on this board have ever heard of.
