  1. You probably knew this was coming from the Leeds fans and I'm fully aware that we have lost 3 quality players but if you look at what is left there is still enough quality there to do much better than what they are doing. This is going back from maybe 8-9 games last season and now a woeful start this season so certainly not a knew jerk reaction. Leeds looked terrible again today, absolutely no real plan, constantly playing it from the defence back to the goalie various times with absolutely no threat yet again to their goal and now that he has lost his saviour (Summerville) then nothing is working and Leeds look a mess. Looking at your stats without Buendia when he was your manager you equally seemed to struggle. I know you guys put Farke on a pedestal and I get that with two promotions but he seems to have completely lost it here and fans have not got on his back in games. With the players he had at his disposal last season he should have finished at least second. What is his game plan because I really don't see one! He had you lot ticking at one stage but all I see is generally unexciting football at Leeds and even with the tools he has this is still awful. I'm guessing time will tell but my guess is he may not last past September if nothing changes. I think most of you would take him back.
  2. Take Farke back πŸ˜‚. I know he did well for you guys and you put him on a pedestal but is he really all that? His subs generally are far too late, the football isn't all that especially when you look at your rivals who pass the ball around so quickly and create space. Most of you probably predicted that Leeds fans would turn on him but this is seen as a fail when he has these players at his disposal. When it came to the business end of the season it has just gone so wrong for him and that is down to the system and these stupidity late subs at 75-80mins when subs should be coming on sooner. Any play for team that plays us will relish the chance. Who needs premier league anyway πŸ˜‚. Wagner is doing just fine for you.
  3. Probably but will never know. His heart was clearly set on the prem and anything else would've been second best and when your spending a few million it's probably best to find out now. Had it have been Luton at the last minute he would've done the same. Can't blame him but it seems Bournemouth is probably the best option he could have ever got by the looks of it. No sleep lost and will have other options. Probably wouldve been easier for Farke though as he has worked with him.
  4. It leaves the door to try and get Hamer as they want about Β£15m I think but Phil Hay says we were slightly short of meeting their valuation(that could be with the Aarons move of Β£9m plus add-ons. We are set to lose Adams for Β£20m. Ayling is a liability so and by all accounts Dramah did well in that position last season so it maybe a case of that. To be honest Max's name has only just come to surface in the last few hours so no big loss at this stage Performance of Aarons does have a lot of mixed feelings on here though?
  5. Looks like we have dodged a bullet looking at most of the comments on here. I was looking for feedback on Aarons but seems like he hasn't been great for a while. Let him try his luck at Bournemouth.
  6. To be honest I'm not sure if he has the funds to sign anyone else. We desperately need a number 9, Bamford yet again has got himself injured in a pre season game and it's becoming an absolute joke with him now. He's on a reported 70k a week so he has to stay on the books and take a big chunk of our financial resources. I would have thought Farke would have wanted a 20 goal man but I just can't see anything being available for him.
  7. The team togetherness isn't as strong. Bielsa did wonders with an average team and made them better than what they actually were. There is no hiding that the board made a total hash of the transfers in the prem which is becoming a hangover in the championship. The problem I don't actually know who will be in the squad by the end of the window because the likes of Sinisterra, Harrison,Gnonto and Adams could still go and will need to be replaced. In a nutshell there are many holes in the team as it stands and there is still work to be done but has to be done within the rules of the EFL. Farke doesn't have a Pukki type in the team.
  8. And the only memorable one was the first year. You know yourself it's not great spending the whole season in the bottom 4
  9. Yep, Leeds back in the championship after a 3yr absence of being in a league of VAR, up against teams with mega money and having the joys of winning around 6-8 games all season. Be rest assured, going straight back up is not a given even though we have a manager who you remember fondly. We are left with the "Victor Orta hangover" with having some dross players on the books on stupidly high wages that no one wants to buy and it's looking like we need to ship out more before we can buy and balance the FFP books. (Gnonto, Harrison,Summerville, Sinisterra) There is nothing that suggests a bounce back to the prem this season unless Farke really is the Messiah. We are even trialling Sam Byram🫣. I personally don't think it will be an easy ride for Leicester either, they have a totally unproven manager. Wouldn't be surprised if a team like Boro take the reins. See you at Carrow Road and ER.
  10. We (Leeds) were shocking and nothing like last season but Norwich were absolutely dire. I was promised a "Norwich in a better position" when I came on here months ago though. If its any consolidation we are miles away from being safe but you have looked worse than you did last season. Time to look at the route of the issue because you will be down for xmas.
  11. Just!! Enjoy it whilst it lasts 🀫
  12. Buendia would have been better off under Bielsa but then again Leeds obviously weren't looking at him. Villa has turned from a one man team to a two man team (as results proved when Grealish was out). Unsure why Norwich didn't want to keep him as he is a vital cog in help staying up.
  13. In the last 16 years Norwich City for sure 😏.
  14. Well if we say we are confident then it looks cocky and probably a typical "stereotypical" response from a Leeds fan point of view, however many pundits have said that Leeds will kick on next season. Bielsa is as good as staying another season and many didn't even think he would have signed another contract 2 years ago when they failed to go up so personally and without sounding cocky I just think that Leeds will not suffer a second season syndrome. Whether they do as well as this season remains to be seen.
