Topic: David Batty


  
  David Batty - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
David Batty (born December 2, 1968 in Leeds, England) was a professional football (soccer) player who played in a defensive midfield position.
Batty made his debut for Leeds in November 1987 as an 18-year-old during a 4-2 win over Swindon Town, and quickly earned a reputation as a fiercely competitive midfielder in the mould of Leeds legend Billy Bremner.
Batty was a key member of the Leeds team that won promotion from the second division in 1989-90, and a member of arguably the best midfield quartet in the English League (which included Gary Speed, Gary McAllister and Gordon Strachan) when Leeds won the first division championship in 1991-92.

 leedsfans.org.uk: Leeds United Player Profile: David Batty
Batty would have been a much better option all season than the pretenders he's been dabbling with, who again don't care about the club.I am sorry if i have rambled a bit but the current form and the treatment of real Leeds people like Gray, Batts,Smith is even more of a disgrace.
Batty is possibly the most underrated player EVER: provided he's granted his place in midfield, the side he's playing for cannot fail to finish the season among the first four in the League - correct me if I'm mistaken.He can go on footballing indefinetely because reads the game beautifully.
lakey and trev head say: david batty is the best defensive midfielder i have ever watcthed he always gives 100percent and is the most loyal player at leeds aswell as smithy give the bloke a chance reidsy bring back batty and watch the differance hell make to the team.the mans a legend.

Gray informed Batty on Monday he would not play for Leeds again this season and as his contract expires this summer it would appear he has pulled on a Whites shirt for the last time after 372 appearances in two spells.
Taylor also feels Batty, seen as the ringleader in the recent wage deferral row, is now within his rights to inform Leeds he is withdrawing his support on the matter.
As United's PFA representative, Batty called in the organisation when Leeds were looking for the players to take a 35 per cent cut to aid them in their financial plight, with the players belatedly agreeing to a 25 per cent deferral.
