Paletta to Leeds?

[anfieldanfield]

I am not being funny but the only game he has looked **** in was against Arsenal, he was alright against Brum and Reading against Gala he wasn't that bad either.

We conceeded three goals against Reading, same against Gala.

Oh, and Paletta should have been sent off against Birmingham.

He's been crap.

There's a few links flying around, without any quotes, suggesting Wise would like Paletta on loan till the end of the season.

Is Leeds the right type of club to be sending our young defenders out on loan, what if they get relegated, will that not be to the detriment of his psyche in the end, even if short lived.

If they were mid table and battling for a play-off place, I might think differently, but the culture of basement Championship football is not the best place to be learning your English type football is it?

It`s also possible that with Palletta in the team Leeds might pull away from the relegation battle which would settle his nerves.Even Argies know how big `pool are and that would frighten the sh*te of most kids.A few months at Leeds could help him settle more in England.

We started to concede after he put James Smith on.

I'm not sure this is the best move for the lad, Leeds are total tripe at the moment, playing incredibly badly, I'd much prefer him joining a mid-table side to gain experience where a team can actually perform.

Paletta to Leeds??

Leeds boss Dennis Wise is trying to secure loan deals for Liverpool's Gabriel Paletta and West Brom striker John Hartson. (Daily Mirror)

Would be an excellent idea for me. On loan to a big club playing at a reasonably high level of English football, big ground, passionate fans. Hopefully he'll get used to the pressure and come back better adapted to the premiership.

Don't think we'll really need him for the remainder of this season barring an injury crisis, particularly now we have Arbeloa who can step into CB if required.

Thoughts?

Merged!

I think he needs to go on loan though, people on here are judging him on one game.

if he wasn't an argie you'd think he was **** like the rest of us do

[simey85]

defo that boy needs first team football ship him out.

[dom9]

The guy is not yet 21, has played a total of FIVE games for us (one as sub) and has come from another continent.
You'd swear he was the worst player on the planet.

Aye, he has some way to go to match Djimi Traore.

Merged!

Sorry, didn't see this thread from a couple of days ago!

[Rich]

No probs

Unfortunately, every time I've seen Paletta play he has looked like a complete and utter liability.

He's incredibly raw and needs some first team football under his belt.

A season at Leeds would do him the world of good.

Though I'd like to see him at Preston or something... Not at Leeds.
