49ers' latest Leeds United visit, Cody Gakpo January plans, Elland Road redevelopment

49ers' latest visit to Leeds United was a success. Beren Cross answered questions from fans. There were questions on the decision to let Daniel James leave on loan to Fulham and the club's plans to expand Elland Road.

Olivetree is intrigued by the fact that whenever another striker was mentioned in the summer window, the club was always looking for someone who can play across the line. Olivetree wonders why the need to play on the wing when the team has Harrison, Sinisterra and Summerville and can afford to let James go.

Beren Cross believes versatility is the key to extracting more value from an investment. He believes players who can play in more than one position are of more use in and around suspensions or injuries.

The 49ers were in Leeds on Friday. Radrizzani said Gakpo is one of the players the club will go after in January. Robbie67 thinks 55k is too small and a 60k stadium minimum is required. Kinnear has spoken about developments with the process in the background. The stadium development remains high on the agenda. The club could go up to 80,000 and have a good chance of selling out.

Jesse Marsch is being investigated for his behaviour on the touchline. He is openly talking about what he is trying to do. If he gets banned on Monday, he will try to change his behavior.

Drameh was considered for the position of right-back, but Struijk got the call. DrameH has the defensive attributes to do a job there, and he could grow into it.

49ers will borrow strikers from the U21s this season. BC wanted to see a senior striker added to the squad before the start of the summer. Rodrigo and Bamford have missed matches this term through injury. If Gnonto is not ready to play at the same time, attacking midfielders could be used as false nines.

Leeds are happy with their current left-back options. If Firpo struggles when fit, Marsch will push for a January addition. Luke Ayling will keep his place at right- back after a great 20 minutes at Brentford. Llorente needs to be taken out for now. Craig92 and Mozza1952 are surprised if fans want to keep Lloresnto in on Saturday.

BC gives a hierarchy of strikers. Right now, Bamford, Rodrigo, Gelhardt, Harrison, Sinisterra, Aaronson, Gnonto are the top strikers, with Rodrigo at the bottom with his injury.

Ayling, Cooper, Dallas and Forshaw are the most pressing cases with their contracts expiring next summer. Klich could leave in January or next year if his squad status doesn't improve. The ball is in Dallas's court. 49ers' latest visit to Leeds is planned for January. Leeds are planning to redevelop Elland Road.

Dan James is going to the World Cup. Leeds sold him to Fulham for £25m. He was wanted by Spurs and Fulam. The club suffered a loss in experience when they switched a winger for a striker. It's hard to see how Leeds will make a profit with any onward sale. F_Wilson6 asks BC about the transfer policy of one in, one out.

CAS is still going through its process regarding Augustin's transfer fee.
