stratton canary 135 Posted June 6, 2023 Their local paper is saying Farke is believed to be on their list at "We all hate Leeds scum". Can't see that happening if I'm honest but who knows? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norfolkngood 1,087 Posted June 6, 2023 i think he would do well there , the last thing we need Farke with a strong squad against us Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,276 Posted June 6, 2023 Yeah this has been mentioned in the transfer rumours thread. I'm not happy. Hopefully Daniel will feel he needs a bit of time away from football and certainly not the cauldron that is Leeds Utd. He can get back to it when we next have a vacancy.

Ulfotto 643 Posted June 6, 2023 Why would any championship club not be interested in Farke 3 seasons in the championship 2 title wins playing football from the gods all on a limited budget. Anyone got an insight on his season in Germany? All I see is the league table which suggests a boring mid table position. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ridgeman 135 Posted June 6, 2023 If Farke goes to Leeds and does well we can see what we ditched to keep Webber. I know which one should have gone. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 3,687 Posted June 6, 2023 I’d be interested to see how it went - I’ve though for a while that it was right time-right place with us, things just clicked and dropped nicely with Emi/Pukki/Todd….but we were always iffy at the back. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deptford Yellow 260 Posted June 6, 2023 Just imagine if he signed Pukki ! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tetteys Jig 830 Posted June 6, 2023 Would actually be interesting to see how it goes. I think he’d be a great fit as well. A squad known for good work rate with a sprinkling of Farkeball magic and then if promoted probably backed to give him a chance at survival in the prem as well.

You see I tend to think the opposite, and think it wouldn’t work out; which is why it would be interesting to find out..

Personally, I doubt if Leeds would give him the time needed. As I've said elsewhere, I think he should replace Martin at Swansea, who probably would give him the time and already play something closer to his preferred style of football. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nexus_Canary 1,024 Posted June 7, 2023 Farke going to Leeds would be criminal. I did see Leicester were eyeing up kmc from them down the road though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,276 Posted June 7, 2023 Having DF available in the background kind a makes me want to give Wagner a kick up the jacksy though. Hopefully I'm wrong but I really don't think we need to worry about getting back to the EPL soon. The alternative is we build something sustainable here, like we did under Farke, and then messed it up. Early days but I'm not a patient type. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyone got an insight on his season in Germany? All I see is the league table which suggests a boring mid table position. It was a season of very mixed results and very mixed performances. Farke had a tough job to halt and turnaround the general decline under Huttler but his style should've suited Glabachs squad. Injuries during the season didn't help but the biggest blow was losing Sommer in January. Also there were some key players who were going to leave at the end of the season, Thuram & Stindl are definitely leaving and Kone is strongly linked with a move to Liverpool.

lake district canary 4,545 Posted June 7, 2023 What would be really galling is if he goes to a championship club, gets them promoted and then keeps that team in the PL. It would enforce everything that I thought about him being sacked from us - that he was the right man for a long term stay at the club and it was short sighted to get rid of him. He hasn't done it yet of course, but if he goes to Leeds and gets them up and stays in the PL, it will show what a stupid mistake it was to sack a manager only weeks after he had seen us through a record breaking season. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would also be really galling if Luton win the Premier League on a budget of tuppence hapenny but that’s not going to happen either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hogesar 9,743 Posted June 7, 2023 If Leeds keep most of their squad it's very strong for the division and they would be expecting an instant return. I'm sure Farke would do a pretty good job in those circumstances, although a poor season in Germany will have caused doubts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HazzaJet 256 Posted June 7, 2023 I think Farke could do a great job for Leeds next season, it's just his record in the PL and the fact that he's just been sacked may put them off signing him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
