Re: Leeds United squad thread 2024/25
Players currently on our books, not including the 21's as we head into the 24/25 Championship season...
please point out if I've forgotten any, it's likely

Re: Leeds United squad thread 2024/25
Only one Full/Wing back on the books at the moment

Re: Leeds United squad thread 2024/25
do we have any decent players in the U21's who could step up into the 1st team squad

All looking rather thin when you highlight players almost certainly not here next season for one reason or another or players Farke basically ignored so probably got very little desire to play for him or him use them.
That's assuming people like Amps, Gray, Georgie and Firpo don't go either.

Re: Leeds United squad thread 2024/25
At the moment, no, unless we count Gyabi who was first team at Plymouth. Most of the 21's are gone so the next batch are the 18's and that's a big gap to the first team squad
We lose a few too I think on 24 contracts.
Crew and Thomas are the best shots.

Re: Leeds United squad thread 2024/25
I think Cresswell and Gyabi stay, but I think they're the only ones. .. so 14 first team players plus 2 21's in Joseph and Gyabi, that's assuming we lose our talent and the Marsch signings... and 3 of those are keepers. so 13 outfield players I think that isCjay wrote: ↑Mon May 27, 2024 6:45 pm Goalkeeper

We're likely to give sick notes Byram and Shack another year and we'll loan 2/3 ...

Re: Leeds United squad thread 2024/25
Farke didn't rate them before why would he now? Or why would Cresswell want to play for him?The Subhuman wrote: ↑Mon May 27, 2024 9:47 pm I think Cresswell and Gyabi stay, but I think they're the only ones. .. so 14 first team players plus 2 21's in Joseph and Gyabi, that's assuming we lose our talent and the Marsch signings... and 3 of those are keepers. so 13 outfield players I think that is

Much much work needed hence concerns about this summer, it's not similar to Norwich 2nd season or even us under MB.
This is rebuild territory

Re: Leeds United squad thread 2024/25
I don't think any are ready
Perkins should have been in the 1st team squad this season. But there are obviously character issues with him
Charlie Crew might be around the 1st team squad. But don't expect him to feature much
Darko Gyabi could be involved after returning from loan
The rest are either a year from being ready or well below championship level

Re: Leeds United squad thread 2024/25
Cresswell won't stay unless he gets reassurances that Farke will play him. Will Farke give him Rodon's spot? Or Cooper's as first back up. I don't think he will.The Subhuman wrote: ↑Mon May 27, 2024 9:47 pm I think Cresswell and Gyabi stay, but I think they're the only ones. .. so 14 first team players plus 2 21's in Joseph and Gyabi, that's assuming we lose our talent and the Marsch signings... and 3 of those are keepers. so 13 outfield players I think that is

My best hope for CC next season was that we'd keep him and give him a season loan move. But, news to me is the 2025 contract you listed. If Farke isn't going to play him, he has to leave and we have to cash in what we can get.

Re: Leeds United squad thread 2024/25
Cresswell, Gelhardt will be demanding a play or leave, I rate them both but think they'll be gone. That is unless our financials are horrible and we lose several without being able to replace them.
Gyabi has an outside chance of coming back and being involved

Re: Leeds United squad thread 2024/25
I think there are two options with regard to Brenden Aaronson. He can either return to Leeds United and play in the Championship. And that of course is IF Farke rates him at all which I doubt. Or he could be sold back to an MLS club at a loss. I really don't see many other options for him.
I will admit to being intrigued about the possibility of a return to Leeds in the Championship. Part of me thinks he can find his game again at that level.

Re: Leeds United squad thread 2024/25
Just like last season, BA has his own option to go out on loan again. If he decided his career would better playing at Leeds next season (championship was great for Josh Sargeant) then I'm sure he would be a good squad member for us. But I'm pretty sure he'll go out on loan again, just like this season.BlackHillsPaul wrote: ↑Tue May 28, 2024 12:26 am I think there are two options with regard to Brenden Aaronson.

Re: Leeds United squad thread 2024/25
Forgotten man Sam Greenwood or has he been sold?
Re: Leeds United squad thread 2024/25
He was only on loan at Boro so he'll be back. But if DF is still in charge, I expect he will be sold.

Re: Leeds United squad thread 2024/25
BA cannot play in the championship as he is just too slight to play against the kickers in this league.andrewjohnsmith wrote: ↑Tue May 28, 2024 5:49 am Just like last season, BA has his own option to go out on loan again.

Re: Leeds United squad thread 2024/25
does anyone know what wages players who went out on loan this season received. As LUFC reduced the wages by 50% were the outgoing loan players able to secure more than this from their "new" teams because if not we may want to try and keep a couple of those who left at the start of the season.
I believe we should try to keep Rasmus Kristiansen and play him as right back and
Wober.
