Personally I think you got the better end of the deal letting Hulse go. He only got 21 goals in 50 appearances for you guys, hardly set the world on fire and for 2.2m you can get someone alot better. You still have the likes of Healy and Blake, players i'd love Wednesday to have. Whats this Elliott bloke like then? |

I guess we have done very well out of the Hulse deal..he's not worth what the Blades want to pay for him and we've made a very nice profit out of him. I'm not sure how much of the 2.2 will go to Blackwell to spend however. I'm not sure about Elliott yet, I don't think I can make a judgement on him having only heard him on the radio and read a few reports. He's turned down a contract at Newcastle and we've apparantly offered him a deal so he can't be all that bad. I'll find out tonight if he's alright if he plays in the Scunthorpe friendly. |

Elliot's always been a pretty por premiership player, but should do a good job in league 2 the championship.

I don't know much about him, but just out of interest how do you reckon the season will go next year without Hulse if he goes??? Would he be that much of a loss, sometimes read conflicting stories about him on here.

Hulse is a good player, but Cresswell is better. Cresswell spent most of last season out with injury and would probably have forced Hulse on to the bench if he was fit. To be honest, we have several quality strikers remaining at the club and the possibility of a further striker being brought in before the season starts, so it's no major loss.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not bitter at Hulse leaving and wish him all the best, he did a good job for Leeds, and proved his worth by playing through an injury for the best part of the season. However, Leeds have an abundance of decent strikers, in Cresswell, Blake and Healy (sorry JJ), and this is also potentially the season Beckford will be given the chance to shine too.
If we had lost Derry or Killa, it would be a big loss to Leeds, but Hulse's services can be replaced easily from our squad.
