Max Gradel

Max has just tweeted:

"One year since I left the club I love the most god bless Leeds United M O T. Gradel"

I know today has been quietier than a George Graham front line, but that has somewhat cheered me up.

Nice guy.

Would love Max back - great player for us but sadly, our crazy contracts policy only had him tied to a 2.5 year deal.

Baffling but oh so atypical of LUFC under the guidance of the cretin that is Shaun Harvey.

Did I mention brought up?

He was born in the ivory coast.

No but I was stating he wanted to go back to a familiar place.

"... the cretin that is Shaun Harvey."

You know him well then, do you?

Why does anyone expect the people who work for Ken Bates to shine? It is not possible.

Jonty, home is where you make it surely. If he was raised most of his young life in France, he would class that as home:
I was born in Leeds but my parents moved to Grimsby when I was 5, I moved down south at 27. I class Grimsby as home not Leeds, because I grew up there.

Scarf, youre right in your first point, but do you know what age he left Ivory Coast?

Do you know what age he actually came to England?

My point is the returning 'home' to France bit was propaganda from bates.

The club wanted to cash in on a saleable asset hence not offering him a contract and then we hear the usual excuses about player wanting away.

Not a clue why he left, don't know a lot about it tbh only something to do with his siblings, might be bo77ocks who knows but I think bates puts spin on everything he does it's water off a ducks back now to us all.
Gradel best player we had for ages shame we sold him. Would be nice to think it was family reasons, but was probably for bates' new speed boat
