Maybe he's just not very.... good? All of this only to end up at Leeds? The grass isn't always greener they say....

Hope he goes there, stays fit, scores a load, and gets himself into England contention.
If he thought our fans were bad, wait until he plays for Leeds
If he stays fit its not a bad move for him or them.
For a team coming up to the Premier to get a 28 year old ex England player its worth the gamble.
He holds up the ball well if they can get someone around him, very good in the air and a bit of pace about him.
Shocking injury record and goalscoring outside of one season.
New surroundings my do him the world of good .
Hope he does well ,
I genuinely stuck up for him most of his time here but last season it just became apparent we couldn't rely on him to stay fit or score goals.
If he hits a purple patch he might do enough for them to cement a place in the prem

Hope he goes there, stays fit, bags 20+ goals and then we can buy him for £50 million next summer

Any Premier League side that offered him a starting role would have been a great move, so I'm happy for him to get that.
I'd call Leeds a yo-yo team not a PL team.
Do you think he's earning more money than he was on his last contract?
Would you say Leeds are a better team than us?
This very much so looks to be a step down for Dom. Though I'd be delighted to hear anything you have to offer to suggest otherwise.

I think both of the above is true, but as things stand they are a PL team. And historically certainly a big club.
No Leeds are not a bigger or better club than us, but they may be a better team for an attacker to play for than what we were under Dyche (hence my Dycheball comment). We are in better shape under Moyes than them IMO.
I suspect he's on a lot more money than we were paying him yes.
What it's not, as you seemed to suggest is a move abroad or to the championship. He will be playing in the PL, for a big club on a better salary. I'd like a "step down" like that from my current job if you can get me one

Basically this. I'm kind of amazed it's being spun as a bad move for him. Leeds are a good, big club.

Leeds a horrible, currently very small club.

Imagine Harrison and DCL end up with 25+ goals and assists between them.
So it's not a step down. Is Leeds a step up then?I think both of the above is true, but as things stand they are a PL team. And historically certainly a big club.
