Leeds United Chat • Re: Georginio Rutter

Had moments Rutter.

Some decent at times holdup play

Little runs

But questions do need to be asked about this deal imo.

Every single German media source said 3 things

1) Talented but far from ready to be a regular in a top league

2) End product needs a lot of work, pressing is brilliant and can run with the ball but goals and match winning moments are severely lacking

3) Massively overpriced at £35mil.

Why was Orta allowed to make a signing in January (a month where by his own admission you only make signings if you have an urgent need) that isnt ready, massively over priced, and has a poor end product in a team full of them?

I like the look of Rutter for say £15mil as a backup who we slowly integrate into the team.

I cant fathom why we paid so much for him and are willing to rely on him though

To much expectation on such young shoulders (same as Gnonto)
