Never seen the guy play, but his goal scoring stats look pretty underwhelming?
we'd be as well re-signing Martyn Waghorn similar standard of player with a similar goal return

Wasn’t even sure if that part was real, reads like it’s been written by a 10 year old in a huffNothing like stating the obvious, eh?
Or am I alone in thinking it’s beed added to wind up people like me?
When McBurnie was in the last year of his deal before signing a new one it was widely reported he was worth 4-5 million(and there were an awful lot of articles linking him to us at the time).Doesn't really affect transfers down south such is the madness.
In a world where Swansea are asking for £20m for Oli McBurnie, Roofe is not going for £5m no matter how little is left on his contract.
12 months left on his contract and no intention of extending it.Not a chance Leeds are parting with him and especially not for 5 million
We paid almost 4 million for big Connor, why not? We have almost 14 million quid Europa league money that was unprecedented.
Never seen him play
We’ll seeDoesn't really affect transfers down south such is the madness.

Fair point.Wasn’t even sure if that part was real, reads like it’s been written by a 10 year old in a huff
Never seen him play but I’ll have a pop at him anywayA converted striker with a worse return than Waghorn ?
Never seen him play but doesn’t fill you with confidence does it

Morelos, Katic, Barisic, Gredza played for whom?Why can’t we look outside the English leagues for players.
He looks decent but will cost a premium, Also looks very lightweight for a replacement for Alfie .
Yes Id agree with youI'd take Roofe in a minute

Your wishes are a bit loftyHe’d be great at leading our attic
Mcburnie scored 22 this season mate , will 3 years on contract , more assists , and is 3 years younger . Championship teams could possibly pay more , but that’s a good price for his last year .
How come so many folk know exactly what Leeds will want?
Morelos, Katic, Barisic, Gredza played for whom?
That's the problem with a section of fans on here..if it's not Messi,Ronaldo or Salah every chunts shite!A name pops up that no one has heard of and the default 'no good enough for us'gets trawled out.Some still live I a fantasy world on here regarding where we are financially. Cant say I've heard or seen much of the guy myself but if Leeds fans think the guy is the real deal that's good enough for me.Leeds fan here .
Roofe is quality . He is easily as good as Morelos.
he is a 10 mil plus player.
Very smart player who links up well anywhere across a front 3 .
People comparing him to Waggy simply dont watch football out side the SPL .
If we had him defoe and kent it would be lethal
I watched him for a couple of seasons at Oxford, and he was played as a forward then. I haven't seen anything of him since he went to Leeds, but when I watched him he had pace and a decent level of skill. He is not what I'd call a "natural" finisher - or at least he wasn't then. He may well have developed in his time at Leeds, but the player I remember is not as good as Morelos by quite a distance.He only really started playing as a striker under Bielsa last season. Played most of his career as a wide man.
He's a very hard working and clever footballer. He's not a poacher he's more of a team player with very good movement etc.
Gerrard probably thinks players from English leagues in the price bracket we can afford are more suited to the style he wants and also able to cope with the style of league we play in. Gerrard and Allen know what they’re doing, and if we get Roofe signed that’s an unreal signing he’s top qualityWhy can’t we look outside the English leagues for players.

Why is Jansson going to Brentford? Its not like they’re able to pay much more money, or have more chance of being promoted. They’re a fantastic well run club & they’re setup and recruitment are very interesting, but its near enough a step down.
Is he not guaranteed to be first choice at Leeds? Or being pushed out by the owners?

Not irrelevant at all mate,fwiw I think if someone bids more than 12million with a hefty % add on we will sell,mainly due to refs having marked Alfie’s card as it were.Kind of an irrelevant....
Nobody appears to be banging the door down for Morelos and not at the money we want for him. Maybe our best bet for maximum money is to keep him to January and then hope that an EPL relegation side try and buy their way out of trouble with a Morelos.
The Records back page saying Sturridge is a target aswell and we are ready to sell Morelos, so one paper has us with Roofe and the other Sturridge.

I'm sat in my work, in Leeds, talking to a Leeds fan about this. He burst out laughing at the £5 million pound suggestion.
Verly likely it would be both with Sturridge being a free
If we sold Morelos and brought in sturridge, roofe and a CH with the proceeds I think we would be in a very strong position for the season ahead.
Grezda footage was so old it was black and whiteHow many of them did we sign this season ? Grezda and Barisic were signed because we played their team in Europe, No doubt Grezda showed up when looking at old footage and Barisic was the best player on the park when we play them.
Morelos was known to JJ so that only leaves Katic .
1 minute after the transfer window is shut Roofe is worthless to leeds as he'll hold out for the next summer and he had knee injury towards the end of the season
