[Football] Ben White - Sings new FOUR year deal.
- Thread starter ewe2
- Start date
Just to be clear, he's 'free' if he signs for, say, Liverpool or Chelsea, right?
Why?
Surely by their logic they can just find another youngster, have Bielsa work his magic and turn him into a £30m player [emoji6]

Silly old bat
We got promoted with two loan players, Tomori from Chelsea & Pocognoli from West Brom. Both played their part in our winning games.
We didn’t throw hissy fits about them staying with us.

Players back in training this week?
That’s what I read somewhere earlier.
I didn’t realise we had a Seagulls contingent in Argentina. I find that interesting given the Bielsa background.

It's not that surprising we've got a following in Argentina now we have one of their best youngsters playing for us, that would have piqued an interest. However they seem to have picked up on the rivalries quite quickly. At least they seem more patient than the Iranian and South African followers we have picked up with other transfers.
There is, of course, the option that no-one is talking about.
We give him an enhanced contract for four or five years and it turns out he can't cut it in the PL. We're then lumbered with a player that no Champ club will buy as they won't meet his wages.
It doesn't bear thinking about ...

'White has never played for Brighton in the league and found himself carted off to Newport County and Peterborough United in the years before United came calling.'
Clearly chosen not to recognise the fact we were in the Prem, they were in the Championship. And, ' carted off' ffs
'The hope in the corridors at Elland Road is White will recognise that lack of faith in Sussex and look to what was put into him by Bielsa, Victor Orta and co.'
I'm very confident that our club have been excellent with him in terms of his development, as we always are with our youngsters, and he will certainly recognise that and will have understood exactly why he went on loan where and when and how the club expected him to develop in his time at each club, gaining first team experience at each progressive level.
This whole saga becomes more entertaining (and tragic on Leeds' behalf) by the day
I will give you one "fact" it will be a cold day in hell when anyone ANY CLUB loans a decent player ever again to leeds united to develop them.
Well there is no question the Albions media department will be aware of all this nonsense. Every single tweet they make now is spammed replied #freebenwhite.
Seriously.
How good will it be if Ben signs a new contract this week? Or there’s a photo op with him and GP?
The fall out will be delicious.

Our social media team must have the patience of saints. I'd have gotten bored of all the Leeds replies to our output and told them all to **** off long before now. That "You sir can **** off..." meme would have been overly used by now.
I don't know about that but I can't see Brighton lending any players to Leeds in a hurry
Bielsa is a really good coach and he will find someone we just dont need to help him by giving him Ben White.
