Well Tansey has a lot more experience, and of a lot of big games. Pitts doesn't.

Wasn't Pitts OOC in 4 months too, which when scaled up to a year would make a reasonable transfer

We'd still have to pay a transfer fee for him because of his age!!
When you consider that pitts is 19 an acadamy international and the potential he has he's well worth the money!!
As for tansey he was too inconsistent,liked the ale a bit too much and every position he covered or played is covered by better players and prospects imo.

What rhinoms says. We would still have had to pay a transfer fee.

You also have to look at his worth for Leeds. Tansey as widely regarded by many on here, would have struggled for a place in the squad, as he is not as good as others in his position.

However, we are short of forwards and light in that area. Pitts is highly regarded potential, but at the same time he is now available immediately for us.

You've just taken two years of Jay Pitts - well done.
