Holy cow I love the optimism of some posters. FACT is we are in deep doodah.

Norwich game is paramount - lose that and the fat lady can start tuning up.

Or in these politically correct times I should say "the person of no fixed gender who may or may not be of more than average dimensions"

You do know we only have 4 points fewer than we had at this stage last season, and that was without the injuries!
#not time to worry yet.

Danum and OP the worry is the performances since start of preseason have been awful ( 16 games or more )

which 3 teams will Leeds finish above?

I’m a bit worried.
First: the players, who were the key to our successful run last season are not showing anything this year. The only highlight are the form of Rapha, KP and Meslier. Others are bang average. Bamford is not that clinical anymore, Dallas is a shadow of himself. Harrison as well. Maybe I judge them based on the 2nd part of the last season, but still.
Second: injuries can as well be the result of training or lack of rest due to Euros (in case of KP) or smth wrong with the medical stuff…
Third: new signings are not bringing anything at the moment. Well we are all aware that there is some time to adapt to Bielsaball. But right now we don’t have that time.
Forth: Bielsaball itself is not new to the EPL. Leeds won some hearts of neutral football lovers and became 2nd favourite team for a lot of supporters. But also every manager of EPL team knows what going to happen. And it seams that it’s not that hard to think of counter tactics. Well Bielsa changed few things, but is it enough?

So I’m a tad worried.

On the flip side:
I have great faith in our youngsters, especially Gelhard! I still think that Firpo can come good (maybe a bit delusional…) and DJ even more (much better than Costa at very least) .
And the most absurd thought: can we sent Roberts on loan and bring back Bogusz. Might be to many brew inside) ) )
Other teams will be struggling through the season as well. So I’m not panicking yet. But if we won’t win tomorrow I might start.

I think they’ll be 6 or 7 below us at the end of the season but to honest I’m quite happy being the top club in Yorkshire. It’s not that long ago we were below Donny, Rotherham and Barnsley. We’re never going to win the premier league (ever) so I’ll just enjoy beating the rich clubs now and again and hope to win a cup before I shuffle off this mortal coil.
