I love that. Who on Earth thought it was a good idea to give him a tour of the city?

Can't stand the football club or their fans so could understand if that or Elland Road put him off but Leeds is a good city in fairness.
Maybe he thought it was in London!

The most curious thing..
But are they more HUGE than MASSIVE?
Or just enormous?

Lived in Leeds for a while. Like most places, it has some great and some grotty bits, and is surrounded by some lovely countryside. You could live a very nice life there if you chose the right area.

I’m waiting for @Live by the sea ‘s definitive and final judgment on Leeds.

Leeds is a great city. My experience of away games over the years has been that the more the town/city is a provincial shithole - Burnley, Stoke etc. - the more the fans are ignorant racist homophobes. Leeds is the exception.

The training ground is at Wetherby, which is nice.

You haven't really caught on to the general vibe here have you

He was invited to some traditional native dancing apparently. Eight men of considerable girth took off white shirts to display their illustrated bodies. The leader then picked up his shirt twirled it around his head and his cohorts followed suit chanting in tongues proclaiming “We are Leeds! We are Leeds!” and other chants about “Yuksher”.

Leeds is actually a lovely city, I spend quite a bit of time there.
Yeah, I was surprised at this: Leeds is a pretty decent place to visit (and live in). Didn't this happen earlier in the season when someone was signing for Villa and did a runner when they saw Birmingham? To be fair, that is more understandable.
But yes, I reckon a lot of foreign players must think all our clubs are in London, or just outside.
