Bielsa post match comments are very worrying - he sounds tired and defeated, almost resigned to continued struggles. My bet is he is off back to Argy at end of season.

Both Bam and Piroe have missed sitters in last couple of games. Away from the cauldron of what was" fortress";Elland Road I would be tempted to start the young uns up front. Piroe blanked when right through and Bam couldn't even get his head on the ball instead of his shoulder when basically unmarked in the 6 yd box. Those are probably going to prove to be expensive misses. Hansen was proved wrong when he said you can't w8n with kids - let's give the LUFC kids a go.
1.) 17 Apr 2024 23:39:23
Likely though just one change by DF ; Bamford in for Piroe.
DF isn't going to start MJ.
Be refreshing to actually indeed score goals from corner/ set piece!
If we be behind at 60 mins bring Cressy on last 30 mins . Amps into midfield. Cressy to score a couple of headers.
Sort it Herr Farke!
2.) 18 Apr 2024 11:31:47
On the contrary I think our lack of experienced heads is costing us at this point.
3.) 18 Apr 2024 14:15:19
Alf our experienced heads can't even head the bloody ball! DF has no intentions of playing Cresswell and starting Joseph. We have NOT utilized our young talent properly in the past 4 years. Although Archie has played well this season and has proven himself, If his last name wasn't (Gray) he would have never been in DF starting team. I'm not bashing my youngster just stating fact.
4.) 18 Apr 2024 15:07:23
Bang on the ? money Hooksie.
" Experienced" players are of no use if they are bottlers under pressure like some of the shower that were masquerading as Leeds players last season.
and the likes of Bamford this season
Empty the stadium maybe he will score.
5.) 18 Apr 2024 15:08:59
A lot of young players play without fear
Fergie had no qualms filling his team with young players.
17 Apr 2024 02:50:30
May I suggest a tag team wrestling match with luvvies Alf and Op versus evil twins George and Baz.
Back to school - my dad is bigger than your dad etc.
Saints well and truly in it, think it's better for us if they beat foxes but not sure. To go up auto think we have to win out and that not likely .
1.) 17 Apr 2024 05:36:12
1970 so " Stone Cold Steve Austin" Baz.
We have had on here
" Ipswich have gone"; ?
" Saints are not in it "?
Well 4 teams are in it ; Leeds likely need to win both away matches and then at least draw final match against Saints.
2.) 17 Apr 2024 06:48:23
Think Aus should be the manager for the evils while Brighty could be manager for ourselves. Or we could do a triple threat match.
3.) 17 Apr 2024 07:18:51
Baz You be ??. I'll be the ⚫?.
4.) 17 Apr 2024 07:48:33
Just like to remind Baz and George that they are not Professional football managers behind their computer keyboards and that they don’t know better with their very conviennent hindsight opinions.
However, they would would know just a little more about coaching than that excuse of a football coach Jesse Marsch.
I think Alf, myself and several other posters need to add some reality to threads as Bazza likes to monopolize pretty much every thread with, it’s my way and my way only. ?
Power to the people ✊?.
{Ed025's Note - do you know what guys i think we need to be a bit nicer to each other, a bit more tolerant and respectful even if you dont agree with someones view, it gets like a bunch of fish wives at times and you are all on the same side here so lets stop the petty bickering and oneupmanship please..
5.) 17 Apr 2024 08:25:05
Feel a bit stuck in the middle.
Rejected by Alfs team ( which hurt a lot I might add) and obviously baz and Porgie able to manage themselves.

OP . you can fall me "Frank" .

#my way ?.
7.) 17 Apr 2024 09:32:05
Ha one can never rely on those Aussies ? ?.
8.) 17 Apr 2024 09:25:26
Respectfully Ed I think a lot of the posts are a bit tongue in cheek, certainly from my behalf, it’s a bit of a distraction from the will we won’t we get promoted? Which is starting a lot of sphincter twitching amongst us Leeds fans right now.
Aus, if you wanna be in our gang you’ve got to tone down the anti Farke posts! ?
Yes mate, that’s the deal.
{Ed025's Note - there is nothing wrong with a bit of banter OP in fact i love it, but it can be a fine line at times mate and i just dont want it to turn into a slanging match, but im sure it wont..
9.) 17 Apr 2024 09:42:30
Don't mind opposing views Ed, in fact I welcome them but it's sooo boring hearing the same lines trotted out every single thread whose only point is to boast about how great they are, how much they told us so and clearly attempts to boost one's own seemingly fragile ego. Its far easier to be negative about a team than positive because in footie nothing is permanent. For every thread if Baz and George just don't bother to comment, we can all just assume they are right about everything and talk about more interesting things instead.
{Ed025's Note - its easy to just skip past posts you dont agree with alf, i enjoy a debate as much as the next guy but we do have to keep it civil mate..
10.) 17 Apr 2024 10:46:31
We have also had on here
"forget Leicester, they can't be caught. "
"Farke totally unproven at this level. "
11.) 17 Apr 2024 11:26:00
Agree with OP who usually has a good sense of humour/ banter.
Cuppa one realises you be bitter about DF messing up past 5 games esp Blackburn but no need to repeat/ use tbe ott ' e ' word.
12.) 17 Apr 2024 11:29:03
OP Didn't care for your convenient hindsight opinions comment when I know for a fact that prior to our decline I posted and discussed with you the benefit of rotation and resting players after a fixture pile up involving the international break (which wasn't actually a break for 85% of our squad, wasn't it just 6 who remained? ) I cautioned you then directly with a couple of clear posts and advisory and now you tell me I have a hindsight opinion? Hope you're joking but sense you are not.
13.) 17 Apr 2024 11:30:36
Ani
line 1 correct.17 points ahead one did not foresèe them choking . still think they will go up in autos
Line 2 false . I said he was " overrated " . unless you be referring to another poster perhaps.
14.) 17 Apr 2024 12:05:32
George let’s have right, we can oppose each other’s opinion, it’s fair game, doesn’t matter who is right or wrong it’s just opinions.
We oppose each other’s opinions if we want but then move on.
No need to get upset or make issues about it.
Keep it clean and we’re all good ?.
15.) 17 Apr 2024 12:36:47
My opinion on the rotation issue as you make out George, I feel you could have a point on certain players who came back from their internationals, but I don’t think they were fatigued more disconsolate especially our Welsh contingent who are very important in our squad.
It’s such fine margins In professional football, a slight knock in confidence to a few players can displace the squad leading to a negative performance.
So for me it’s not fatigue the problem but confidence, we don’t have quality replacements for Rodon and Ampadu, who appear to be suffering along with James.
16.) 17 Apr 2024 13:13:41
Not sure you have ever posted clearly. Most of the time I take Ed’s advice and ignore your posts. Unless they are short.
17.) 17 Apr 2024 13:23:27
OP Why do you conflate? Did I refuse your right to oppose? No. Issue is you've attempted to rewrite the truth by claiming hindsight. Now you say I've got a point with certain players. Make mind up! I was right all along and in advance. So unnecessary. The title was ours.
Sometimes you rest players for a good week, possibly lose 3 or 4 points because of it and then come back with a vengeance. What Farke did was ensure we lost double those amount of points and without the benefit of the rest!
18.) 17 Apr 2024 15:12:34
It’s like a plug on here put live and Neutral together it goes bang.
{Ed025's Note - im shocked Whiteman.. :)
19.) 17 Apr 2024 18:17:36
Ed025 only joking ED??????.

Can I be The Undertaker, or Paul Bearer?

Whitey I believe 1 was wrong out of 744,803 posts.
23.) 17 Apr 2024 19:38:11
Now you're talking Brighty - Paul Bearer was a creepy one wasn't he?
24.) 17 Apr 2024 22:01:16
He wasn’t half, Alf! Looked a bit Jimmy Saville / Rolf Harris to me!
25.) 18 Apr 2024 07:43:35
Thank you Ed025, wish it was more civil. Think some posters may have left due to the vitriol on the site. We all love Leeds so we should do our best to gat along. Appreciate all the good posts.
{Ed025's Note - it can just deteriorate if its 1 on 1 confrontation Simon, i post the same on all the sites mate as its not just on here that it happens, im not saying you cant have different views and express them, but lets have some respect..
14 Apr 2024 17:55:31
I think I can sense discord among the ranks.
Players throwing A hissy fit when subbed, storming off at final whistle, this does not bode well for the rest of the season.
1.) 14 Apr 2024 18:09:28
Possibly 1970 the GR and JR hissy fit reactions were a tad surprising.
2.) 14 Apr 2024 18:29:06
Well that how us fans feel still they will still have the nerve to pick up their wages on pay f. joke.
3.) 14 Apr 2024 19:21:59
Farke allowing the tail to wag the dog ? as has been the case at Leeds for several years now. Had he freshened things up for a game or two we'd probably be promoted by now and the squad would be in harmony. Also, reintroducing Rutter so quickly after surgery was a schoolboy howling error. Club run on emotions still.
4.) 14 Apr 2024 19:51:53
What are you on about whiteman?
All the players have contributed this season and played well most of the time. We’re still in the mix for promotion and you say they don’t deserve their wages.
Are you a bitter little man who begrudges a man a very good wage because they haven’t lived up to your expectations?
Do mr a favour pal.
5.) 14 Apr 2024 20:10:05
Not the players' fault, perhaps only as much as 15%. Rest falls on Farke for rotation paucity further demonstrable by an act of madness subbing off our best 3 players in our last match. Agent Farke harbouring feelings for Canaries? Desirous of legitimate evasion of promotion payment to Radz? Who knows? If it was all accidental though, I'd hate to see ? a wilful sabotage. ?☠️⚱️.
6.) 14 Apr 2024 21:35:38
George, farke has a great rep at both Leeds and Norwich for not letting the tail wag the dog… look it up.
7.) 15 Apr 2024 11:01:24
I whinged about the substitutions.
But apparently Gnonto is still recovering from injury, as is Roberts and Gruev was taken off to push another attacker on
So my big beef is, why swap 3 at the same time and cause confusion until everyone settles.
8.) 15 Apr 2024 11:42:11
Gnonto looked fine, full of running, peeved to come off, 9 days recovery before next match
AG should have come off not IG fgs .6 attackers no midfield. certainly no CDM
Gruev stays on that Blackburn goal steaight down middle of pitch does not happen
DF disaster class. the defeat on him first and foremost.
9.) 15 Apr 2024 17:58:54
Home defeat was first of season and that is foremost
Farke matserclass.
10.) 15 Apr 2024 19:53:07
Totally what Baz said. Sadly, in a very cruel and depressing ? way.
13 Apr 2024 17:50:35
The sucker punch was almost inevitable. Personally not bothered to go up and watch the big boys give us a beating week in week out.
This was in our own hands and in typical Leeds fashion we have effed it up. Strikers are woeful, on thousands a week and can't even get it on his head and not his shoulder. My great a7n5 Florence would have done better.
But, as OP points out we shouldn't expect to score if the box is "congested" ( sorry, I still find that the most inane remark of the season)
1.) 13 Apr 2024 18:45:04
How many matches have Leeds truly convinced
A handful.
2.) 13 Apr 2024 19:47:51
1970 no need to worry on that we ain’t, we will Lose many players and who are we going to get no better so we’ll be here for a few seasons more.
3.) 13 Apr 2024 19:55:43
They have convinced every game they win baz… lots of games!
How many have your loves impwisch convinced with last minute scrappy wins… the negatively is starting to kill me… we are two pints of top and been cheating out of 5 points
Get a grip people.
4.) 13 Apr 2024 20:09:08
Spot on Bermo. The meltdowns on here are hilarious. It's like a bunch of primary school kids crying because someone bought them a toy digger in the wrong colour rather than grown men talking about a hobby.
5.) 13 Apr 2024 21:26:34
Bermo : the “we’ve been cheated out of 5 points” is a totally pointless statement. We have had more than ample opportunities in front of goal but have persisted with mis firing strikers. There ain’t no point throwing you toys out the pram complaining about refs.
6.) 13 Apr 2024 22:33:28
How is it pointless?
It had literally cost us points that would make us top.
Refs cheat us wholesale to the point if it being a joke.
How about this… take five points off every other team in the table… where are leeds? Top!
The Sunderland game was poor … the sort of game you can win by having a penalty or two.
7.) 14 Apr 2024 01:55:38
Good grief, it’s like being back in primary school.
8.) 14 Apr 2024 08:41:52
Don’t matter how you twisted it cheated drop lost, it all add to the same thing. We need 9 points nothing more can we do maybe, others need to drop points that’s possible who knows but the are not the same side we were and just look at yesterday game we where dog ? now make a pizza out of that.
9.) 14 Apr 2024 20:23:57
Indeed Alf! And now George is throwing every playground insult around his addled brain can create through the artistic use of emojis! Hilarious innit!?
Crayons and finger paints tomorrow!
13 Apr 2024 14:41:32
This was against the MOST POROUS defense in the league - if we end up getting promoted it will be a year of misery. What do you prefer?
1.) 13 Apr 2024 15:01:03
We will be smanked in prem. Rather stay down and finish mid table tbh.
2.) 13 Apr 2024 15:04:56
Good question
I think whichever 3 teams go up . likely come straight back down.
None of them are good enough.
3.) 13 Apr 2024 16:31:24
I agree. Whilst I don't want to not win games and be promoted, I just think we are nowhere near ready. Whilst I like the likes of Summerville, gnonto and Rutter, I wouldn't be bothered if they wanted to jump ship. Hopefully we learn how to negotiate and get some good money for them.
16 Apr 2024 03:20:41
Well he would say that wouldn’t he! I don’t read that much into it, if money is right he will be back to Germany before you can say blitzkrieg.
07 Aug 2023 15:42:27
I can't even say it, let alone sing it!
02 May 2023 15:45:56
With you on this one AUS - I assume Sam will be on a good "bung" if he somehow keeps us up.
17 Jun 2022 23:09:14
Please see my post from earlier this week! Of course he knew, no doubt what so ever - question is would he have spent regardless?
Probably not - but as I stated previously we will end up with net profit the window for Radz to siphon off a couple of million for other ventures.
He has been good for Leeds but first and foremost he is a business man looking to make a profit.
16 Apr 2024 03:56:09
Play him while we’ve got him but he does come across as an arrogant egotist. Big fish in little pond, if big boys come with the loot he will fade into obscurity. Look at PHILLIPS, lost years of his career trying to slide in above his level - but then if you were offered his kind of loot wouldn’t you . Summerville is quick and small but a couple of outings against some Italian or German defensive assassins and he will slow down.
14 Apr 2024 01:55:38

Me thinks after last two lackluster outings we will stick a few past Montgomery s heir.
