Sivo would be our world class attacking threat. It would provide great cover for any loss of form, injury and to allow players to be rested who have niggles without the replacement being Luis Robert's (I know he has now gone) or a 2nd row filling in at centre and significantly reducing the standard of our back line.
By the sounds of it, it does not sound like he will be coming though.
You have to credit Blease he is making a difference. Leeds have released 8 players of which only Martin was a regular starter in the 17. Discounted Fusitua as he missed so many games. We have brought in 4 players who are all potential starters in the 17. Add in Holroyd and Gannon and we look in a much better place. We have added size in the pack and guaranteed metres out of backfield plus some creativity with Connor. If we could secure another release and a strike player you would have to be pleased with the transfer business. Its not that long since the chat was we had little room to change the squad till 2026

In any case, the next steps need to be players leaving which IB seemed to say he expected on the Lot Pod.
I don’t think we’ve finished just yet.
i his reply yesterday on X he said ''I've asked the club about Sivo a few weeks ago, he's been offered to SL clubs but I'm told he's not heading to Leeds'' in his reply - that to me reads it's not happening unless the circumstances have now changed.. .
I think Connor is. a Blease buy not BA as he won’t know very much about him , BA obviously ok with it. Don’t particularly want Sivo , and old winger past his best , we have already signed one of those !
No doubting Sivo's quality but probably not the best use of a quota spot.We have two good wingers for next season not convinced we need a third with Lumb waiting for his chance.That saying i would still be happy if we could land Sivo.If all the back line were available it would be interesting who Arthur would go with.
I'm not a pheasant plucker, i'm a pheasant pluckers son and i'm only plucking pheasants till the pheasant plucker comes.

All the ones on here saying Arthur will sort his attitude at the age of 30 are hopeful in the extreme. I would rather play one of the reserves who have the right attitude than a Prima Donna. Just hope the builders have been in before he arrives to widen the doors.

That reply was to me, I posted about the Sivo rumours and asked him. I think he was deliberately careful with his words, or the person he spoke to was, and that the statement was said in a way that was true at the time, but if Mom does leave, then things change...
It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.
