‘That’s a no then’, ‘Jesus’ – Some Leeds fans react as top attacking target posts Twitter update
According to Phil Hay, Leeds United want to sign Brentford goal machine Said Benrahma more than any other attacker this summer.
On a recent podcast, Hay said of Benrahama and Leeds: “Benrahma, he’s the one. If they could get him they would be delighted and they would do it.”
It seems the interest from Bielsa might have gone to his head.
And, after Benrahma posted a video of his extravagant summer holiday on Twitter, there are lots of Leeds fans who have crossed him off the list.
To be fair, the video is a pretty horribly misjudged flaunting of wealth at a time when so many are struggling.
Complete with drone footage and Benrahma getting clipped by a private barber poolside, it almost plays like a parody or an advert for a new designer spirit.
Do we really care?
Some fans think it shows the wrong attitude for a Leeds player under Bielsa. And it’s certainly poles apart from Bielsa getting the Leeds squad picking up litter to keep them grounded.
However, we’re not going to blast Benrahma from our wanted list because he’s made one silly mistake on social media.
What we will say is that it’s ever-so-slightly worrying from a Brentford player and we can see where these fans are coming from…
