Re: Leeds vs Forest player ratings

Meslier- 6 - Not much to do. Very little chance with the goal. Ayling- 5 - difficult to rate. Had a shocking first 15 but settled after that and was decent. Koch- 7 - solid. Dealt with everything thrown at him. Even when Forest started pumping long balls over the top. Struijk- 9 - colossal today. Se...

Re: The #LUFC Breakfast Debate (Thursday 23rd February) - Leeds waiting on Javi Gracia's work permit

I think they're doing a good job generally, I don't see the awful we had with Bates or GFH. I don't see the laissez-faire attitude of Cellino and I don't see the panicked profligacy of the Ridsdale era... I don't think we have the right to expect them to be 100% perfect. They hada 5 year plan which...

Re: The #LUFC Breakfast Debate (Wednesday 22nd February) What can we expect from Gracia

I’m surprised we are only 4 points worse off than at this stage last season, feels far worse for some reason. Got to bear in mind though... our next 3 games after game 23 (3-0 loss to Everton last season) were 3 thumpings. So if we pick up 4 points in our next 3 games we will be exactly where we we...

Re: Next Manager

Can understand the negativity around this bloke. But... should we not give him a chance before deciding he is awful. There are LOADS of managers who haven't worked out at different clubs for different reasons. Yes he didn't work out at Ajax... but even our own Messiah failed at several clubs (Lille ...

Re: The #LUFC Breakfast Debate (Thursday 2nd February) Orta pulled the plug on Harrison sale

Roca- Decent premier league midfielder, I generally ignore what any pundits on TalkSport say, normally huge wind bags who didn't achieve a whole heap in their careers. Needs to tidy a few things up but generally has done okay for this season. Very rarely lets us down and is a HUGE upgrade on Forshaw...

Re: Leeds vs Cardiff player ratings

Meslier 6 - not a HUGE amount to do. Commanding area well when called upon. Not gonna judge him too harshly for the goals conceded. Kristensen - 7 - looked good going forward and fairly solid in defence. Honestly a 50/50 call between him and Ayling right now. Llorente 7 - didn't notice him too much ...

She reinforces really the talented but hasn't really progressed as much as hoped.

Not a goalscorer and unlikely to be a total game changer.

Re: Georginio Rutter- TRANSFER RUMOUR.

How many people here realistically thought Gnonto was going to be ready for us this season? And yet he has made an impact in pretty much every game he has played for us this season.

If this goes ahead it very much fits the model we are aiming for. At least we would be showing some ambition.

Re: Leeds vs West Ham Positives and Negatives

Positive- looked more threatening AND took our opportunities (mostly when they came) Negative- Honestly cannot fathom some of our defensive brain fades (let's hope Wober can bring some stability there.

Re: Positives/Negatives v Newcastle (1 of each only please)

Positives- Gritty performance against a very good side and putting more teams between us and the bottom 3. Definitely a game we would have lost 2/3-0 last season Negatives- not creating much in the way of clear cut chances. Interesting change since before the break where obviously we were creating/s...

Re: Jesse Marsch

Jesse faces an FA charge for his conduct against Brentford.

Genuinely didn't see a huge amount wrong in what he was doing. Certainly Klopp et al get away with MUCH worse week in week out. The corruption against us is a disgrace.

Re: Rate the Ref as we draw with Everton

Similar to everyone else here. 0/10. Let them cheat and dive their way through whilst not pulling up time wasting AND to be fair Gordon should have seen a second yellow for clipping one of our guys heels on the break.

Re: Leeds Utd v Everton Match Thread - Sinisterra starts as Bamford makes the bench

Not sure I've watched the same game as a lot of people. Thought we looked good second half. Result is disappointing but definitely not on the side of doom and gloom. We've lost once in the first 5 games. Picked up the magic 8 points. Looked competitive and not been blown away by anyone. Whilst also ...

Re: Leeds Utd v Everton Match Thread - Sinisterra starts as Bamford makes the bench

Hard to play a game of football against a team of professional s**thousers. The more we play in this league that more I hate the likes of Fwank/Wolves etc. Referees NEED to get a bloody grip on this.

You say escapes as though we were ever interested in him. He's had one good half season at championship level. The fact he's ending up going to play in France tells me that the interest from Premiership clubs wasn't there.
