    Pontus Jannson and Ethan Pinnock, could be a very good partnership that.

    Brentford signing players with their chewed up pens

    Looks like they've driven to his front room to sign it on his poker table an all.

    5.5 million by the looks of things . Puts what we received for pinnock / Lindsay in a bit more perspective .

    Exactly - £3m for Pinnock looks a good fee. £5.5m for Jansson is cheap.

    It’s not what about folk think their value is, it’s what the market at any one point is willing to pay.

    Good pairing that - should be a solid defence if they remain fit.

    Be a tough ask, but if they keep hold of their better attackers like Maupay and Watkins they're going to be a good shout for the Play-Offs.

    Totally agree. Keep Maupay and they should be a top 6 team. Although I think he’s off to Sheff Utd.

    It's about right for both wouldn't say 5.5 million is cheap for jannson. My mate a Leeds season ticket holder says jannson was great 2 seasons back but said he wasn't as good last season still don't think he wanted to get shut mind.

    Jannson seems to be a bit if a character so will be a perfect pairing with Pinnock who is more reserved. I wonder if Ethan got told these plans before he signed, seems like he may be at a club now that has a chance of play offs.

    I get the feeling Jansson is a bad egg me, wouldn’t be surprised if this was Bielsa’s decision in all honesty.

    I don’t think it’s a good of a signing as everyone thinks.

    Maybe, I was surprised no-one else was sniffing round him at that price. Although I would have said the same thing about Pinnock at £3m, so who knows...

    There's more than meets the eye regarding this situation with Brentford. A Wednesday fan at work says they're a model club and everyone should be run in the same way. I'm sure there's a £50m black hole somewhere and within five years it's going to swallow them up.

    They've just splashed out millions on him and given him a manky biro with the end chewed of it,
    to sign his contract.

    Sorry Tomaiba, didn't spot your comment at the top of the pic you posted.

    Leeds being ripped off doesn’t make our being ripped off any more palatable.

    It does. A player is only worth what they’re worth. I personally don’t think Pinnock was worth much more than £3m anyway. Jansson’s fee shows that.

    Where have they got this money from??
    Even if they’ve sold a couple of players, they must have spent a fortune on wages with these 2. Odd
