As a US citizen…this is awesome. We don’t get too many opportunities to see our players playing in the EPL. These younger guys are continuing to pave the way. Hopefully our Philly Union boy becomes massively successful for Leeds.

[@kentgrady9226]

Leeds fans: just wait until you see the kid's work rate. He is relentless. Any opposition who prefer to play from the back, can pencil in Plan B... He is a constant disruption and plays to contest everything. One would think such a spindly fellow might be prone to injury, with his work rate. Doesn't appear to be the case, from what I've seen. You've got a good one.

Born and bred in Yorkshire, a hard core leeds fan since late 70s and an American citizen for last 30 yrs, I'm interested to see what comes of this move. Yes, probably some biz reason in the background helped nudge this along, however if the 49ers were fully in the driving seat I can't help thinking a US preseason tour would have been on the schedule instead of Oz. Just 1 of many hopefully before kick off for next season.

[@christianperry9187]

Pulisic gets a ton of hype from us Americans (And rightfully so since he's the most technically gifted American player we've ever had) but I have to say Aaronson is actually a better fit for a Jesse Marsch system. His mindset really reminds me of Clint Dempsey in that he excels in pure, relentless effort. He's got great confidence and if he ever hits a wall he's just going to bash his head against it until he breaks through. Dempsey was a sneaky good dribbler and an amazing finisher which Aaronson isn't there yet but he's a lot better defensively and is basically the embodiment of the high press system Marsch runs. Seeing how Deuce is the most successful (non Goalkeeper) American to play in the Premier League, I think that's a good sign for Leeds. On a side note, I think Leeds is about to get a lot more American fans coming in the same way Fulham did. I know I'm going to be tuning in for all the games for sure!

[@purpledragons1146]

We'll need to get a good price for Raphinha and get a quality replacement along with a new striker and a couple defenders if we're going to finish comfortably mid table next season

[@karl1670]

Agreed accept he's guna go but get big money for him get a striker to replace Bamford or at least more options up front personally I'd say another attacker CM and definitely improve in defence then we're probably just about good enough to challenge for mid table positions
