@Nathlufc23: Very, very, very important this!

@Allcheese1: Ten years ago, young players couldn't wait to get out of LS11 - the quicker the better. Now we are able to raid other clubs for their best youth, develop them to a level they're happy to agree to lengthy contracts.

This is our future being secured.

@JonnyVickers4: Fantastic news. The future is bright.

@Zelda_Louise: That is a beautiful sight, honestly, I could cry. That trio is amazing, didn't want to lose either one, so happy well done Leeds United staff. Crysencio needs first team.

@Jacobwadswort18: Brilliant news! What confidence boost this is for the three, keep working hard lads & you'll get an opportunity.

@AidenLUFC28: Yes lads, this is what we want to hear!
