Happy Joseph didn't start for Spain the other night, keep him fresh for Leeds.
Absolutely delighted he scored! The lad should be full of confidence now after 2 goals in 2 games.
Hard to believe he's only 20 as he plays with such a maturity.
Wouldn't it be great if he could score 20 plus league goals this season barring injuries?
I'd be happy with 15 plus?
Main thing is he keeps performing as a proper number nine as he has done so far.
Early days I know but the lad has talent and seems to have a great attitude.
08 Sep 2024 22:46:25
We need him to score 16 goals plus .
09 Sep 2024 08:28:03
I’ll go for 17 plus? What’s with the extra one goal Baz?
09 Sep 2024 08:47:27
Talk of him getting a senior call up next time out, which would be great experience for him.
09 Sep 2024 10:57:16
I thought that would be obvious OP (even for you ??) .
Last time Leeds United got promoted our main CF Mr Patrick Bamford scored 16 goals )
Plus 16 is my fave lucky number .
Take your pick OP.
09 Sep 2024 11:54:30
. and I hear Meslier wants an exit clause ( in a new contract) if Leeds don't go up again this season
No ckub.
10 Sep 2024 09:26:31
It’s not a new contract as his current contract expires 2026. What he’s asking for is for his release clause to be lowered from 20Mil if Leeds are not promoted this season. Marseille would have bought him had it been about 15Mil.
Don’t worry though Baz, we will be promoted this season and Meslier is expected to sign a five year extension to his contract.
More for you to moan about no doubt.
10 Sep 2024 10:18:42
Marseille did NOT actually make any offer for Meslier as they did not rate him above £5 or 6 million OP .
Your figure of £15 million is pure fantasy OP . also logically as such Marseiile would have formally tested Leeds with a formal offer of £15 million
(just as Leeds had tested Sheff Utd . with a £13 mullion formal offer for £18 milllion rated Hamer)
And
IF Leeds do go up they certainly gonner need a far better keeper than Meslier as his data stats in EPL are truly horrendous!
. even in Champo Meslier is just a mere 14th on the actual gk stats.
10 Sep 2024 12:38:29
Like I said, more for you to moan about.
10 Sep 2024 13:19:49
Them be the facts OP re Mes
Want better for your club OP! Sticking with Mes will hamper Leeds in EPL.
History has already revealed LUFC naive sentmentality
in sticking with not good enough players Meslier, Cooper, Forshaw, Bamford etc amongst others
got Leeds relegated.
10 Sep 2024 14:50:32
No sentimentality for me on that and your so called facts from bored YouTubers isn’t going to persuade me.
Anyhow Baz we are not going down the Meslier route again, it is really, really boring.
How about some of your famous predictions or not so famous as some may see it.
Forgive me if I’m wrong but you haven’t made your end of season Leeds prediction yet? and what team or teams are going to be our main threat? First, second and play off winner.
Who will be top goal scorer and top assists for Leeds?
Come on Baz let’s be having some of those Bazadamaus predictions.
Don’t be shy.
10 Sep 2024 15:54:07
Gave my predections on 1st September posts on here
To repeat for you OP
1.Imo much weaker Champo standard this year, so I have Leeds United finishing 1st ( they hopefully recruit wisely in Jan 2025 to ensure Champions Elect)
2.The only real competition for Leeds will be Sheff United ( 2nd ) and Burnley ( 3rd )
Gawd knows how Berma has Sheff Utd finishing mid table
Problem will be dear OP that Leeds United will come straight back down unless they seriously improve team and squad in next transfer windows . and yes that definitely includes recruiting much better gk to replace Meslier
Cheers Sir Nostrs Baz ?.
10 Sep 2024 15:58:00
. added nugget for yer OP
This season will be reminiscent of 1989/ 90 Leeds United Legend Sgt Wilko promotion season
Both seasons :
Champions 1st Leeds United
And
Runners up 2nd Sheff United.
10 Sep 2024 19:46:02
Thank you for that Baz, but I am confused that you have us finishing top of the league with the, in your opinion, inadequate Meslier, how is that possible?
Are you sure you don’t want to change your mind on that? Maybe 2nd would be more sensible.
For me Leeds top as always and West Brom 2nd.
10 Sep 2024 20:55:29
Champo is so weak this year OP. even with Mes in goal. Leeds should have just about enough to come top.
10 Sep 2024 23:08:24
It’s no different from last season, the only team that should have gone up was Leicester. Southampton were not spectacular and Ipswich rode their luck.
If you think it’s a walk in the park for Leeds to win this league, think again.
That’s just blind arrogance based on nothing of substance.
I don’t need to remind you also that we lost our highest goal scorer and best creative player plus the ever improving young Archie.
We’ve bought a player who was rejected by Man Utd and a Sheffield Utd defender along with a semi crocked Spurs player.
But don’t worry we’ve still got calamity Mez!
That’s your defining ingredients to win this league easily!
It’s a good job we’ve got that waste of space what’s his name of a manager to guide us to glory then?!
11 Sep 2024 00:44:10
OP Since when did my ' just about enough to come top '
translate to ' walk in the park ' and ' win the league easy '
11 Sep 2024 00:47:17
and Leicester, Ipswich, Southampton and the Leeds of last season ALL would finish above ALL 24 Champo teams of this season
. a very low quality Champo league this season indeed.
11 Sep 2024 05:40:54
Clearly in your estimation to suit your very blinkered view on professional league football.
11 Sep 2024 06:10:07
Sunderland and West Brom have improved from last season and will be a stronger threat then with the added Burnley who will get better as the season progresses simply like us we’ve had to make many changes to the squad. Then Sheffield Utd who in your estimation are going to do very well, not in mine but they’ll still be a threat.
A walk in the park I believe is your translation of a very poor Championship challenge this season, especially when you see us winning it as if it’s a foregone conclusion.
Very, very naive opinion in my opinion.
11 Sep 2024 07:57:23
Middlesbrough can’t be discounted, having strengthened their squad.
11 Sep 2024 09:16:32
"Just about enough" OP.
My words.
"Forgone conclusion" guff etc are YOUR words not mine.
11 Sep 2024 19:37:55
I may have exaggerated with with some of my wording, but a poor level Championship, you are totally way off it, it’s the hardest league to get out of and this season is no different. You are completely delusional if you think otherwise.
11 Sep 2024 20:51:42
Hmmm OP
2 auto places in a 24 team league makes it hard to go up for around
18 clubs of dross!
Facts are virtually every season the EPL relegated clubs dominate the top 3 or 4 places
Sheff Utd, Burnley and Leeds United will be in the top 2 mix ( in Leeds case this may be their last good chance of doing so) !
11 Sep 2024 20:55:57
. this years Champo is gash OP mediocre at best in standard.
You KNOW it!
relaxxx fella ??.
11 Sep 2024 23:06:00
? I’ll leave you with that thought in your head Baz as you slowly slip into that unstoppable spirale of inebriation from your last sip of grog.
12 Sep 2024 00:55:12
Yep OP I really enjoyed raiding your drinks cabinet! Lmao
Cheers my ole china!
12 Sep 2024 08:08:05
Champo is never just average. Anyone can beat anyone on their day, and PL relegation with parachutes or not, that will continue to be the case. Think blunts will be playoffs, and no more. Wilder has had his days of glory, and they are behind him. Like JP said with the cack stirring media stories; “who is Chris Wilder? ”. Blunts schmunts.
