Berm. Could you please explain why, as you say our team doesn't have championship players? Half of our starting 11 are the same players that couldn't get us out of the championship before Bielsa came.
I just don't get your reasoning. Or am I missing something? 😕.

At the same time Berm could you also explain why we can’t beat teams that play 4-4-2 when we just soundly won against WBA, Newcastle and Burnley, your not making any sense?!

19 Jan 2021 09:37:31
Dont forget too Danum and OP, that Berm also believes Leeds, a newly promoted team, with all but 2 of its available squad so far being Championship players, should finish top 4 🤪, or the very least top 8 as he previously claimed.
# underachievers😉.

Everyone needs to get over the fact we played in the championship. vardy played non-leauge that don’t make him a non-leauge player does it

Our players are not championship players because when offered a like for like swap with other prem team players we are not taking the swap so how are them prem players

As for 4-4-2 I never in a million years said that stop putting words in my mouth to twist things.

I said we can’t beat teams who sit back and defend deep. We can’t if you disagree with that your an idiot who don’t know the first thing about football

Also soundly beating Burnley they were the better team and had a perfectly good goal dissalpllowed that is hardly sound is it.

I know some don’t like what I say because it is not positive and because I dare to question god but I’m getting fed up with people twisting what I say to try and make them right or make me look stupid

I’m far from stupid and I got belisa spot on

Our players ain’t championship players how do o know because we are prem and when offered the swap we wouldn’t take it (with half of the teams) I also know because we wouldn’t swap with championship players name one championship squad you would swap with . exactly


Belisa style can be great but just as often it can be useless this is not a new thing or a couple of games it is a three great pattern

You may chose to accept the good over the bad that is a judgement call but to say I haven’t got a valid point or I’m not siring logic is blindness from the rose tinted glasses.

And yes bv it is possible

Lesciter were a championship squad newly promoted to prem, they did the great escape one year then become prem champs the next.

We got some good players we spent a lot of money we apparently have a good manager why should we not be aiming for top 8 (top four was a joke and you know it but makes you feel better to think I was serious then knock yourself out and enjoy)

Some good points
We have struggled to beat teams that sit back - Memorably last year was the Luton game!
I thought when promoted we needed to strengthen as too many Championship players - A few have proved me wrong but IMO only Alioski, Cooper, Costa and Roberts are not Premiership that there are also only Koch and Philipps have shown that they are quality top 6 Premiership players.
My main concern is that we have a lack of depth in three main areas Goalkeeper, Defensive Midfield and Centre Forward. This together with MB failing to rest out of form players cause us issues.

of course Cambridge I agree,

Cooper is definitely not prem quality and alioski is very hit and miss, costa I think played well and just is not used properly and Roberts I don't think will make the cut

but so many on here say we have championship players like that is the reason when we lose and it is not we lost last year for same reasons as this belisa tactics don't work against certain types of teams (or counter tactics)

over all our squad is not championship and no worse than ten other teams in the prem

when we lose blaming the players for me is not right (not when losing to teams like brighton who we have better players than and when it is tactical defeat)

meliser, dallas, harrision, bamford, klich, phillips have shown they can do a job (so as aliokski to a lesser degree)

so it is not players letting us down. it is tactics. it is belisa making the same old mistakes time and time again. I don't know why some leeds fans can't just see and admit that most of leeds failings are his fault (granted so are the great results as well, credit where it is due like against villa and everton but also blame where it is due as well)

19 Jan 2021 13:56:32
So if our players are as good as 10 other teams, why is our squad value significantly less? aren't players valued on their ability? In like for like positions the majority of our team is also valued less. Why is that if they are the same quality?

19 Jan 2021 14:59:00
Meslier - Good shot stopper and will be a great Prem keeper but right now struggle to think many teams he would start
Costa - Good Championship player but didn't make the grade at Wolves in Prem
Klich - Good start but I think he was playing above himself now found his level
Harrison - Wonderkid on his day and can't cross a bridge other days
Dallas - Works his ar5e off and would probably get in most lower table sides

Overall if we are looking top 8 then IMO we have only one player who could get in to any of the below sides

MAn Utd, Liverpool, Spurs, Man City, Everton, Arsenal, Leicester, Chelsea - Could even add Villa and West Ham to that list.

alf you know me

I hold no value in players values

harry Maguire got sold for 80 million, Lucas radebe was 175k.

market value don't always add up otherwise no player would be a waste of money or a bargin

what they are doing on the pitch is the only way I value them. to value them any other way to me seems silly.
