Date night

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly: Leeds United Summer 2022 edition

Transfer deadline day felt like a spaghetti western for Leeds United's board of directors, believing to have lasso'd Cody Gakpo over from the Netherlands, before then tying up Bamba Dieng - or so they thought. Dan James was once again caught in a deadline day Mexican stand-off and it appeared Patrick Bamford would remain the club's solitary Lone Ranger before young buck Willy Gnonto saved the day right at the last. YEP chief football writer Graham Smyth and Leeds United journalist Joe Donnohue neatly group the summer's transfer dealings and deadline day drama into three categories: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.  Listen now.
