‘Enjoy your football elsewhere’, ‘Sell him’ – Leeds fans react to ominous first-teamer comments

Fri 23 March 2018 11:30, UK

Leeds fans have taken to Twitter after reading the latest comments from popular enforcer Pontus Jansson.

Talking to Swedish outlet Expressen, Jansson was asked about his plans with Leeds for next season.

The defender said that he wanted to talk with the club to get clarification over the direction they were moving in.

“We’ll see what’s happening, I want to hear from the club how to look next year and so on,” the 6ft 3in colossus said.

That’s sent some Leeds fans into a spiral, with one saying that after manager Paul Heckingbottom revealed his transfer budget, that they might as well wave goodbye to both Jansson and star attacker Samu Saiz.

He ended his tweet with a dig at the owner, adding #ThanksRadz and tagging Andrea Radrizzani in.

Another fan said that Leeds should sell him and get £10million for him as he’s been “pants”.

However, not everyone was so angry or concerned. One fan said he would be distraught if a player wasn’t interested in what was going on with the club next season.

Here are the best reactions from Leeds fans after Jansson’s comments:

@PJansson5 well I’ll tell you, Heckingbottom already said we have a “mid-table” budget next season and we need to make funds. I hope you and @Samusaiz enjoy your football elsewhere ????????‍♂️ #ThanksRadz @andrearadri

Cheers Bud, thought so.
I'd be distraught if one of our players was so disinterested he didn't want to know what the plans for next season are!

According to the article he also said that he is happy at Leeds. So I see nothing strange with him being interested in what the plans are for next season.

I think that most Leeds fans will want to know which Pontus is going to turn up next year also.

I want to hear whether Pontus is going to bottle games by pretending to be injured when 2 nil down next season before I pay for for a season ticket????

Pretty simple really. Players showing they're unhappy about the threats coming out of ER so throwing down the gauntlet. Tbh I don't see many being impressed with PH over TC either. Pablo & PJ both questioning the club now. Maybe AR will stop talking in public one day.

He's been part of the reason we failed. Wasn't thinking negative when he signed the 4 Yr deal
