Important to get Ryan Leonard

[originaltrueblade]

i know people that have watched this very talented player has vision can tackle a quality attacking and defending midfield player who can hold the ball run with it at pace and his distribution is quality. A good leader too.
Sounds like a description of Paul Coutes. It’s common knowledge that United are still after him and if we are successful will enforce our challenge for promotion, hope we get him! He is out of contract in June

Amazed there hasn't been a thread about Lenny already!

I'd say that's better than Coutts.
PC can't run with the ball at pace and tends to sit back controlling the game rather than attacking. The rest of Southend's team must be pretty poor though given their league position.

Will he be able to handle the pressure from this forum though ?

Coutts had the best pass completion in the championship.

Much to live up to if/when he comes.

i'd say this is a deal that will be done eventually but the only way we can get it sorted in January is pay over the odds or loan a player as a make weight...

Just had a look to see if Whiteman may have impressed at Southend - it was his hattrick game!

The fact that we already have a nickname for a player we ain't even signed yet tells your everything you need to know about the protracted nature of this transfer saga.
