The foot control from Tanaka on the third goal is a thing of beauty. He dazzles and confuses the defence, only to tap it across the goaly straight into the path of arranson.
I get the feeling that Willie Gnonto has been sold, or will be sold in January. He seems to be getting game time to keep his reputation up, while his heart and head aren't in the team anymore.

Partly agree MOT re Gnonto head and heart not being with Leeds. hasn't really been since Leeds were R.
BUT no way is he gonner be sold IF there is indeed the reported 40% to 50% sell on fee to his previous club.
Which club is paying even say £10 to £15 million for underperforming meh WG. Leeds would pick up a very small transfer fee after sell on. Clause.
11 Dec 2024 21:48:05
£15 mill for Gnonto is a good deal. In his prime and on his game he's a serious threat. Would do well in another team.
11 Dec 2024 22:56:28
£15 million may be a good deal if WG started trying harder, but there is no way Mr Marathe would accept just £15 million ( with Leeds receiving just £7.5 million after sell on clause)
There is no likely scenario on him leaving anytime soon imo
his contract doesn't end until 2027.

Gnonto exhibits a wealth of good footballing talent for his very young age, Leeds United have no intention of selling him and he will play a big part in our potential promotion to the Premiership.
12 Dec 2024 02:42:32
I hope so, opti but his fire seems to have died out. He had something to prove last season, but this season he seems a little lost and directionless.
His talent is still there, bubbling under the surface, but he seems restrained. I hope we get Willie canon-legs Gnonto back.
12 Dec 2024 04:24:28
Well WG is yet to really exhibit this ' wealth of good footballing talent'
12 Dec 2024 07:34:37
For a poster who knows very little about what is talent I would say you have to nothing to say on the matter baz.
Mot in my opinion it’s the reason why they didn’t want to let him go when his agent advised him to leave when we were relagated. Willy’s skills and goals are definitely what we will need entering into the Premiership. I admit he did fade abut in the second half against Middlesbrough, it is possible that he might be playing through a knock or something.
Gnonto makes that player Jack, whatever his name was, look like a Sunday league player.
Willy is an asset to Leeds Utd, just hope as he improves he doesn’t get poached from us in the future.

that comment really does show how little you know about the game Baz. Stick to watching replays of Revie games bud you will be much happier.
12 Dec 2024 14:27:38
I agree Opti. I was talking bigger than just the Boro game though. Gnonto this season is a shadow of Gnonto last season. I hope he picks his form back up because ramazani and Solomon are better players than him right now.
12 Dec 2024 14:37:52
Willy is a very good player whom probably yearns for the return of his brother. Last season he was better away from home. He is best suited imo in the EPL. I like it when he comes from deep.
12 Dec 2024 16:37:38
Willy will be should be out to impress potential customers if he wants a move however we will never know what he has been promised by DF as with BA who seems to be starting every game.
12 Dec 2024 17:41:30
Aaaaand, Willy is in the Champo Team of the Week. Says it all really.
12 Dec 2024 18:21:53
Bright, no one is questioning the quality of Gnonto. He's proved himself in many, many games at Leeds. I can't speak for others, but for me personally, he isn't on his usually form which is EPL quality.
We saw flashes of his old self in the Boro match, especially that rocket shot. We all want Gnonto to be on his best and he is and always will be a Leeds favourite.
Will-ee Gnonto, Willy willy Gnonto, rings out from the Elland road stands for a reason.
12 Dec 2024 18:40:33
See nothings changed on here, still loads of bickering and slagging a team off that sits second in the table. If e as in hulls position I could understand it.
12 Dec 2024 20:02:06
Well said martyn
To be fair there are loads of great vaild but sometimes different opinions
And baz, remove him this sites quailty.
