Crysencio Summerville gives own version of Marsch half-time message v Bournemouth - YEP 6/11/22

-


Crysencio Summerville has provided his own version of boss Jesse Marsch's half-time message to his Leeds United players during Saturday's incredible comeback victory against Bournemouth.

By Lee Sobot

Leeds went ahead in just the third minute of Saturday afternoon’s Premier League contest as Rodrigo struck from the penalty spot but Marsch's Whites were booed off at half-time by which point they trailed 2-1 to strikes from Marcus Tavernier and Philip Billing. Summerville, though, said the instructions of head coach Marsch during the half-time break ultimately worked the oracle as Leeds eventually ran out 4-3 winners through goals from Sam Greenwood, Cooper and finally Summerville after Dominic Solanke had put the Cherries 3-1 up in the 48th minute.

Asked by post-match media for an insight into Marsch's half time message, Summerville smiled: "Um, ah, I don't think I can say that but I do it in my own words. He said like that if you stick to the match plan and we do what we are used to doing then we are going to win this game and fair point so I am happy.

"It was a bit sloppy in the first half but I think we re-builded in the second half and I think you can see as a group that we have got belief, we have got fight for each other and the second half was just crazy. I think you have to stick to the plan, to the match plan and then you will get back to how you usually play but in the first half we were a bit sloppy and we weren't doing the things we were meant to do."

Summerville has now scored in his last three games and the 21-year-old Dutch winger has bagged two late winners in succession having also sealed Leeds victory in last weekend's clash at Liverpool with his strike in the 89th minute.

"It's like against Liverpool," he smiled. "I don't know what I have with late winners but this was an important one."

The huge initial fee Leeds are set to receive for Crysencio Summerville’s move to West Ham — Leeds United News 31/7/24

Will Butcher West Ham United are closing in on a deal to sign Crysencio Summerville from Leeds United, and Ben Jacobs has shared how much Leeds will receive for the Dutchman. The 22-year-old has been strongly linked with the Elland Road exit door all summer and was targeted as the one big sale Leeds needed to make before the Profit & Sustainability Rules deadline this month. But instead, Leeds sold Archie Gray for £40m to Tottenham. Leeds have since sold five more players in the form of Diego Llorente, Marc Roca, Kris Klaesson and Charlie Cresswell – raking in around £60m in total. But more exits were always likely and Fabrizio Romano reported on Wednesday afternoon that West Ham had agreed personal terms with Summerville, and talks for a fee were ongoing with the Yorkshire side. Now, the story has moved on with multiple sources claiming a deal is done between Leeds and Angus Kinnear’s old club. The Dutchman is expected to sign a five-year at the London Stadium, until Jun...

By Joe Donnohue Leeds United have confirmed supporters' commemorative stones at Elland Road's Centenary Square will be replaced free of charge in a bid to improve their longevity. Beginning next month, Leeds supporters' personalised stones will be replaced with exact replicas, courtesy of a new company, to ensure of a 'much better quality' installation. The work is expected to take around two months to complete. An official club statement confirmed 'three larger stones dedicated to former managers Don Revie, Howard Wilkinson and Marcelo Bielsa' will also be installed, 'similar to those located in Bremner Square', while additional space for supporters to purchase new stones has also been factored into the project. “The club have taken on board recent feedback from supporters on the stones at Centenary Square, and we are really happy that we can now announce that all of the stones will be replaced," chief executive Angus Kinnear confirmed,...

Leeds United transfer state of play as Whites knock back low bid and assert wing pair stance — YEP 3/7/24

-
By Graham Smyth Leeds United are not actively looking to cash in on Crysencio Summerville and Willy Gnonto and believe any further outgoing transfer business will be done on their terms. The Whites, who sold Archie Gray to Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday for £40m, expect that there will be continued interest in wing pair Summerville and Gnonto as the summer transfer window progresses. Summerville has been a target for Premier League side Brighton and Hove Albion but their interest has not yet materialised into a bid. The Albion did, however, send a £30m proposal for Georginio Rutter, which Elland Road chiefs rejected. Rutter is not expected to try and force an exit this summer and appears settled at Leeds after a far more positive second season in English football. The sale of Gray has helped put Leeds into a position where they do not need to sell star players and can dictate any moves that do happen. Club sources say they are not actively looking to sell the likes of Summerville o...
