How convinced is Farke that he sticks to his principles amidst criticism of being inflexible? The Leeds boss said: "You can't be like a flag in the wind. You have to stick to what you believe in. Just because you don't win a game doesn't mean you suddenly go to 4-4-2 and stick the ball up front. That's not us, nor the habits we work upon. You work over a season and good managers over years to develop a game. "
Does Leeds have "years" to develop a good game and manager?

Farke likely has 7 months max end of season.
As Marathe in his inteview on takeover made it clear he does not tolerate ( continued) failure.

Good job he’s not failing then….

Some games require a more direct approach. His philosophy explains the dearth of set piece and corner goals.

Failed last season Ani
Jury is out this season.

Why do your posts contradict themselves after pretty much every game we play Baz?
One week we are easily going to win the Championship with Farke, next game it’s likely he’ll get the sack and we are going nowhere with him.
My opinion is that he will guide us to promotion this season but unlike in your schizophrenic positive side of your posts it won’t be easy as is always the case in the Championship.
Farkes real test of his coaching abilities will be how to cope in the Premiership once there as it’s is clearly a massive challenge to stay up once up.

It's not so much about failure, but how he has compromised the team.
In the BBC interview, Farke says he won't change his tactics, which is giving away how we're going to play for the rest of our games. If I was an opposition manager I would be laughing my socks off.

Really can’t see him lasting beyond Xmas. Wasted too many points. I would think the owners want to be top or top two at worst by Xmas. Pretty sure they won’t want to fail again. So will either have to replace Farke or spend enough coin to get what they shoulda got months ago. A bloody good striker and attacking mid.
Ideally doing both.

Bielsa didn’t win promotion in his first season.

He’s wasted less points this season Aus than this point last?
It’s only about a month ago, that some around here were waxing lyrical about Carlos Corberán’s attacking qualities and how he should replace Farke. I guess 2 goals in 6 matches and no wins since September has put paid to that drivel.
Perhaps Scot Parker could replace him, or is their 7 goals in the last 10 matches going to sway opinion?
We are second in the form table over the last 12 games, having played against teams with the highest points per game, that is, we have played the team in average 6th place in the league and in that period and still secured 2+ points a game. In the same period, Sheff U and Burnley have played an average 10th placed team and still only managed 1.5 points per game. We are dropping less points despite playing higher quality opposition.

Away form is iffy Ani . not top 2 level.
08 Nov 2024 10:55:32
Quality opposition ani. Who dat?
08 Nov 2024 11:38:00
Exactly Aus; there are no ' quality' teams in Champo this season. Leeds on paper arguably best of a mediocre bunch.
08 Nov 2024 13:43:18
Only in yours and Aus’s opinion.
Were Leicester, Ipswich and Southampton such good quality teams when it’s very likely all three will be relegated.
08 Nov 2024 14:20:30
. and half the Leeds fan base opinion too . (cue Bright ?)
Come off it OP
Leicester Ipswich Southampton and last season Leeds all better than this seasons mediocrity.
Imagine a gash team like 5th place Millwall going up next season through playoffs . they would finish on record lowest points in EPL and fewest goals scored ever too.
08 Nov 2024 23:59:13
Like Ipswich or Southampton in all likeliness.

How very convenient for you both to be totally blind to Ani’s 100% data based post, which has completely destroyed your arguments! What is the opposite of “a miracle”?
