I thought there was a marked change in tone from Marsch re: transfers in Australia to his response in this week’s press conference. Are we going to sign an attacker or not?
Beren says: "The first part of your question virtually hits the nail on the head. Between Sunday and Thursday, Marsch's language on additions certainly changed. There was more caution in his voice and that was then backed up by what Radrizzani told The Athletic on Wednesday.
"The goalkeeper will be done next week and then I'd say a forward seems more likely than a left-back, but even then it has to be the right striker for Leeds to spend De Ketelaere levels of cash. Radrizzani should know, or should be being advised, there is not much credit in the bank with fans going into this new season.
"Yes, they stayed up, but the football in those 12 games was poor, the club's two best players have been sold and the jury is out on the new faces for a few weeks. If they find themselves in the bottom five by the end of September then there will be some concerns, but I would like to think the really vitriolic stuff won't come until much later in the season, if at all."
