LUFC fans flock to Phil Hay’s transfer status tweet

Leeds United fans have been reacting to a tweet from Phil Hay about the state of the club as the January transfer window draws to a close.

Leeds have been incredibly quiet this window when it comes to the movement of players.

There have been no incomings as Deadline Day gets underway, and the only departure has been that of Cody Drameh to Championship side Cardiff City.

Who was sent off in his first game as captain?

There have been some reports late in the window that there could be more outgoings at Elland Road, with Kalvin Philips and Raphinha linked with transfers out of the club. However, an article from The Athletic detailed the latest with both of those reported transfers, explaining how neither will be leaving the club this window.

This was relayed by Hay on Twitter for fans to react to, with many of them using it as a chance to react to the state of the club’s transfer window in general, and it’s fair to say that a number of them were not best pleased with how things have shaped up:

“What’s the point of these new Americans? No investment at all apparently? Just buying a brand to sell on? If they aren’t up to the challenge now what do we have to look forward to when they take full control?”

“This is a big risk by the club with all the teams around us either bringing in transfers or new managers. Big risk Leeds… doesn’t give stacks of enthusiasm for the fans during the rest of the season!”

@ZHorseracing

“I’m going to continue to label these west ham ‘bids’ as utter garbage. I don’t think for a second that they’re real. Genuinely an insult to Leeds”

@Fugazisquared

“Victor’s saving the money. He’ll spend it on scarfs last match in a desperate attempt to create a match winning atmosphere.”

@pangolin1970

“No incomings is absolutely criminal”

@TomHiley3

“Absolutely criminal. Just sets us up for a disaster come the end of the season. Few bad results & well all look back on January & complain. I hope this gamble pays off.”

@GJLindley

“Must be the only squad that has reduced in size this window and was probably the smallest squad to begin with. It’s criminal what the hell are the club doing?”
