Leeds United want Manor Solomon from Tottenham, only a loan, but he’s some player, suffered with injuries but apparently all good now, he reminds me of Aaron Lennon at his height, I will happily cover fuel costs if we can sign him.
1.) 22 Aug 2024 12:46:02
He would be a class addition, I rate him highly, exactly what we need.
2.) 22 Aug 2024 14:51:34
Agreed ????.
3.) 22 Aug 2024 16:52:27
Seems injury prone. Apparently he's made some questionable comments on Instagram as well (I don't have social media anymore so wouldn't know) so putting teams off him.
16 Aug 2024 14:32:24
Dill, do you know anything about this young Brazilian Winger Chelsea are trying to ship out due to their ridiculous number of players?
Angelo Gabriel £13million pound signing but never played a game - The 19-year-old has been on the fringes during pre-season and is widely expected to leave after the Blues signed Pedro Neto from Wolves.
There are also issues with Fifa limits allowing just six players to move on loan overseas from a single club.
Chelsea would also prefer to sell Armando Broja, Trevoh Chalobah, Bashir Humphreys, David Datro Fofana and Kepa Arrizabalaga rather than loan them out this summer
There must be some serious bargains, loans amongst this immense squad compiled with literally billions of pounds?
1.) 16 Aug 2024 15:12:24
With £100 million can't we just buy Halaand? He's a Leeds fan after all.
2.) 16 Aug 2024 15:22:33
No mate, unfortunately not.
3.) 16 Aug 2024 16:43:50
Chalobah, Gyabi MK2
Broja! What way was he at St Mary's?
Could he work at Leeds?
4.) 16 Aug 2024 19:59:56
Ipswich trying to loan Broja according to SSN, Chris.

Cody Drama! scheduled for his Hull medical today, lad has talent but has similar attitude to Spence. Wouldn’t be surprised to see him get a bigger move further down the line but will need to address his poor attitude first.

1 Shame
2.Badly mistreated by LUFC
3.Davis, Dean, Framed. Cresswell. the list is endless
4.How much is fee as Leeds offered him a contract. so due compensation fee.
3.) 23 Jul 2024 15:03:33
Lovechild no more.

Think Baz has become ambidextrous. Been vacant a few times over last couple days.
5.) 23 Jul 2024 17:44:50
In his statement on BBC, Drameh emphasizes that Hull made him feel wanted, they welcomed him and want him there. He also says he likes the owner and club management at Hull because they made him feel wanted.
There's no secret that cresswell and farke didn't see eye to eye and that's why he left.
Farke is a divisive manager, isn't he?
6.) 23 Jul 2024 18:21:30
He evidently sure if MOT.
7.) 23 Jul 2024 20:37:00
Don’t think Farke can be held accountable for Drameh tho.
8.) 24 Jul 2024 17:32:59
Baz you've named four players there who all had mitigating reasons as to why they didn't make it to our first team.
One who couldn't get into our first team and had to drop down a league to get game time before finally playing well. He wasn't getting into our first team so he didn't want to re-sign with us and we sold him as a result before losing him for nowt the summer after. That's football, it happens.
Another one who dropped down leagues to get game time as was nowhere near the firsts. Two leagues in this case. That's because we decided to pick and Englang/ Spain youth international as the better CF to integrate to the first team. Who now looks likely to be our starting CF.
One who's had two average to meh loan seasons in the last 2 years and is now leaving. Boo hoo.
And the last one who wasn't good enough to get into our first team. That after a season on loan where he also wasn't good enough to be a guaranteed starter at a lower quality team in the same league.
FACTS.
9.) 24 Jul 2024 17:38:06
Tbf Drameh did decent at Luton. I forgot about that loan, but Cardiff and Brum were average and meh.
10.) 26 Jul 2024 14:05:12
Err pretty sure that Drameh was voted Cardiffs plsyer of the year Dill? As well as Lutons player of season
So 'meh '? . think again buddy. ?.
11.) 26 Jul 2024 14:09:37
And Davis now playing in EPL, Cresswell Ligue 1 . both leagues higher than Champo Leeds
Dean now playing in equivalent league
Point was loan them out ok . bit don't sell them virtually give them away
Sorry Dill but think again ?.

Everton could be heading for a fire sale, following the news today that 777partners takeover deal almost certainly dead in the water due to multiple financial irregularities in the states.

Serves right. Couldn't happen to a nicer team.
11 Aug 2023 20:29:01
Gnoto statement from club….
The statement read: “Earlier this week, Willy Gnonto and his representatives were informed by the club that he would not be sold this summer.
“Following those conversations, Willy felt he was unable to play in Wednesday night’s Carabao Cup tie with Shrewsbury Town.
“Despite training for the last two days, Willy has informed Daniel Farke that he still does not feel able to play this weekend and has not travelled to Birmingham for the game tomorrow.
“This is now an internal disciplinary matter and the club will make no further comment, other than to reiterate that Willy is not for sale.
Which translated means he will go but it won’t be cheap, liking this new regime management of the situation.
1.) 11 Aug 2023 22:20:38
Agree Class, everyone is for sale but we hold all the cards.
Long contract, no clause that we are aware of.
If you want him pay up. Right now if a kid is signed from Bristol for 25 mill then I want 35 for an italy international with EPL experience.
2.) 11 Aug 2023 22:41:06
Sue him and his family for contractual treason and unlawful business interruption for one hundred zillion pounds, compound interest, legal fees and luncheon vouchers.

Well as a firm reinforcement of my managerial expertise Stoke sack their coach.
I had originally tipped Schumachers Stoke to be a dark horse team this season mainly because I thought Stoke outplayed us at home last Season in a very competent passing team.
He was promoted with Plymouth originally scoring goals for fun playing an exciting expansive style of football.
But he’s gone, Stoke have won twice in five and remain in the Carabo cup but he is an early casualty, after Saturdays 1-0 defeat away at Oxford United.
On the plus side, it maintains by prediction ratio at a firm 100%…. wrong again!
Seems a good coach, think he will come good in time but this (for me) Championship shows again why it’s the toughest league in the top five leagues anywhere in the world, not technically the best but certainly the toughest.
1.) 16 Sep 2024 11:32:59
Yeah, I was a little surprised by that decision too! Can only guess there was something else bubbling under, and they were waiting for a suitable opportunity?
2.) 16 Sep 2024 11:53:56
Think if it’s a very quick appointment Brighty says they already had someone lined up.
Can see David Moyes managing in the championship for someone this season.
3.) 16 Sep 2024 12:27:23
I admire your honesty Class - if you can predict a few more for me I'll have a bet the other way:) )
You are quite right though, he's a decent coach who should have been given more time but as Brighty says, was there something else bubbling under?
Tough league whichever way you lay your bets!

Oh happy to post my lottery numbers Cleggy just stay well clear.

6.) 16 Sep 2024 15:52:10
Hope not but Moyes will never drop to the Championship in my opinion.
7.) 16 Sep 2024 16:08:25
Moyes was coaching in Champo and L1 from memory with little ole
Preston OP
Bielsa and Wilko agreed to join Super Leeds in this league . why not Moyes?
8.) 16 Sep 2024 16:40:22
Oh wasn’t suggesting Moyes for us, just see him topping up his pension fund in the Championship this season, bearing in mind my predictions record.
9.) 16 Sep 2024 18:45:37
Mate appreciate your honesty but you may not be wrong sometimes things just ain’t a good fit
Hecky is a great manager and done well at all his clubs but was awful fit at leeds you could also argue Howell at Burnley I think.
10.) 16 Sep 2024 20:49:33
Does happen with certain managers at certain clubs, for Mourhinio all the time more recently.

Classof92 has written an article entitled, Leeds United v Burnley Review
1.) 15 Sep 2024 10:40:48
Good post class. Make no mistake. I’m
Not for sacking Willy nilly. But he has had time. He is not good enough to get a squad oozing talent up
Ok. We would all have liked Hams and a striker but this is good enough. Just need a better manager.
2.) 15 Sep 2024 11:26:15
So reduculas, any leeds fan calling for farkes head has no clue about football
He is proven at this level, last year he had a summer of madness players leaving on lone and those staying not wanting to be here and he still got us 90 points any other season we go up
This year we lost our best players and had to cover a black hole left by rads and beilsa. Look at facts Belisa spent 45 million the year we went up farke has made around 90-95 million how can anyone compare and be calling for his head?
We’ve lost one game, one game after two summers of madness and a team being pulled apart. And he still has us in the hunt
Hang your heads in shame, honestly not sure if I’m lost by these comments or disgusted.
3.) 15 Sep 2024 11:45:13
There's a lot of Leeds fans that don't particularly rate and have increasingly lost confidence in DF to get Leeds United promoted.
Even more pertinent I do wonder if Farke still crucially has the players confidence.
players such as Ampadu and Rodon who appear flustered, erratic, far less assured and lacking in confidence at times this season.
If Farke is indeed losing players confidence that is a serious problem for LUFC and its hierarchy who wwre in attendance on Saturday
and they are likely still concerned by the meltdown final 12 games of last season under DF.
4.) 15 Sep 2024 11:48:39
4 wins in 14 Berma . it ain't pretty.
5.) 15 Sep 2024 11:52:43
Berm, I have to agree with you, and this goes back to an earlier post around the negativity of some posts that are put up. Listen I don't pretend to say I haven't had some input into some of these, but my glass is half full and I am forever the optimist. Yesterday we played them off the park, the supposedly next team to get automatic promotion, and if it wasn't for a slip and a piece of poor defending from Bogulwe would have had a draw.
Like you say 90 points would normally get you promotion, but it didn't. Farke has had 2 seasons where he has started with one hand behind his back, for me he is doing a good job, it's the players missing the chances that they shouldn't. How is that his fault! Ridiculous to think of getting rid of him at this point.
6.) 15 Sep 2024 12:03:51
Good write-up Class.
7.) 15 Sep 2024 12:06:04
Just 3 shots on target
no goals scored ( 2nd blank in 5 league games )
No points
Them be the key stats Dougie
" played off park " . ie loads of unthreatening possession is NOT getting top 2 .
Leeds were a more dangerous goalscoring team last season but even then under DF failed twice to get promoted.
8.) 15 Sep 2024 12:15:52
Farke fluffed the end of last season by not changing tactics. Teams had sussed us out and he wasn't willing to change.
He's done the same at the start of this season, even with a new team, it's the same tactics.
We come back from the international break and lose 0-1 at home to a side that played poorly.
Farke chose the wrong subs at the wrong time and didn't change his tactics.
If we want promotion this year, we cannot risk dragging our heels like we did with Marsch, leaving us to choose crap managers and sacrificing a season.
A new manager may need a few games to bed in. Get them in now before the October break, otherwise hopes of promotion may be impossible.
What farke did at Norwich, with different players at a different club means nothing when what he has done at this club - the only true measure of his ability worth a damn, is missing out on promotion. He's now using those failed tactics again and again.
How many times must a striker miss the goal before fans are calling them crap?
He's not the right man for the job.
Time to part ways.

Good post MOTagain.
10.) 15 Sep 2024 13:24:27
Did you actually read my post Berm?
Especially the bits.
‘I'm certainly not advocating sacking Daniel Farke’?
I acknowledge his record in this league?
Hope he proves me wrong?
Of course I know nothing about football, it’s a helpful and sometimes necessary trait for being a lifelong Leeds fan.
My post said in my personal opinion, I find Farke, well a bit dull much nearer the Allardyce end of the spectrum than my personal fave Bielsa (Yes you’ve told me before about your view of Marcelo but we just have to agree to disagree)
But they’re just differing opinions it’s a very sad state of affairs if we cannot respect different views and perspectives.
I truly don’t get your high praise of Messellier nor your obvious loathing of Kalvin Phillips or Bielsa.
But that’s your opinion, it doesn’t mean either of us are right or wrong it just means we differ on those points of view.
I’ve gone to print to say I’ve bet on us to go up as champions I do every season though, but welcome your thoughts on why we cannot unlock teams that sit in, why we’re playing such a lot of possession based football without going anywhere and why our Manager took BA off when his passes broke the Burnley lines more than any other player?
Farke has a very good record (again) but I find him uninspiring and to me he’s slow to adapt to the games mostly reactive not proactive.
I may be clueless on all matters football but I know enough to hold my own opinions based on our side and manager, never towards a fellow poster.
11.) 15 Sep 2024 13:32:35
Look at I get some criticism of course I do but things ain’t as bad as many say and we need some perspective.
Why do fans of one city clubs suffer from dellision of gandure and have an over inflated opinion of team?
Leeds are not that good, we are not in a great place. We threw a lot of money at Belisa and failed awfully then got relegated.
We have no money, ffp is killing us. We have had a summer of instability followed by a summer of losing 120 million pounds worth of talent. We lost more talent in money terms than the rest of the leauge put together and some expect promotion.
Farke is doing a good job with a bad hand, the squad are doing ok considering they ain’t great
What annoys me most is lots are romantacising about the idiot Belisa who is largely to blame for this.
Give farke Belisa hand and he’d play it better.
12.) 15 Sep 2024 14:12:34
Hmm a very well reasoned follow up post by Class.
13.) 15 Sep 2024 14:25:10
Wrong berm.
Squad team is good.
Manager well iffy.
Owners clueless and tight.
Simple.
Which one of those three can be fixed or changed today? Cause one or something needs to.
Opinions out the window.
Anybody on this site reckon our players not good enough for promotion?
Then 8 out of 15 not good enough is it?
And why would players good enough to win the league lose 1 and draw 2 of first 5? And the 1 at home for Christ sake.
14.) 15 Sep 2024 14:38:03
Bermo,
Farke failed to get us promoted with that 120 million quids worth of talent and you're saying that he will fail again because he doesn't have that talent, which failed to get us promoted.
If Farke failed with the talent, and you say he is doing the best with a bad hand, meaning we won't get promoted, then surely it's better to gamble with a manager who might get us promoted?
If failure is the only outcome with farke, with the team we have, then why continue with him as manager?
Ipswich did better with a lesser-talented team.
15.) 15 Sep 2024 14:59:38

Berma your posts contradict as ever.
17.) 15 Sep 2024 16:10:20
MoT, what does it mean when you say Farke will not get us promoted but another manager/ coach "Might” get us promoted!, is that not the same? where’s the guarantee that another manager will get us back to the Premiership.?
It’s just a gamble is it not?
Farke missed promotion by a whisker last season, he’s got a very good chance in succeeding this time.
A different manager now would be an insane decision were it to be made. Just because we have lost one game how on earth can that mean a disaster for this season?
I’d love someone to explain to me the logic in that if they can?
Dont forget this is a new season with new players and we have Won 2 Drawn 2 and Lost 1 only 4 points behind top spot.
18.) 15 Sep 2024 16:40:23
Opti,
I was pointing out Bermos conflicts in his reasoning. He says farke has a bad hand this season so can't get us promoted, despite failing last season with a better team.
I agree with you that it's best gamble and find a new manager. If Farke couldn't do it last season, and we all saw why it happened, then the chances of him doing it this season are slim to none. His subs; their timing, choice and usage, are almost 1-1 with how Marsch used to handle them, that is to say, poorly.
We haven't lost one game and it's frustrating to see this because brought up, game after game. I understand that fans can be very quick to call for the head of a manager during a bad run of form, but this isn't that. Farke has objectively made the wrong calls for the 80% of the last matches we have lost. His win/ loss ratio doesn't reset in a new season, and if it did, it would be pretty poor regardless.
We didn't just lose a game. We lost poorly to a good side that that played somehow worse than us, at ER. We scraped a draw with Portsmouth thanks to arranson. We eeked a win to Sheffield weds, drew a boring, goalless match, got spanked Vs Middlesbrough in the cup.
Farke has a better side now, than most teams who see promotion have. Yet, they're not being utilised.
What is insane, is keeping with the same manager on the hope that a miracle will happen and he will somehow change character overnight. Swapping managers now is a risk, but not doing so is a guarantee in forfeiting promotion.
Ask yourselves this. If we had the best striker in the league, would he be scoring goals left, right and centre, considering the tactics and style of play? Are the reasons we failed to get a striker because we couldn't pay or because they wouldn't come?
19.) 15 Sep 2024 16:49:07

Last year was an abnomilie and any other year we go up despite summer carnage
Class I like your posts and even when we differ slightly I respect your knowledge and how you put it out. My response was not personal or directed at you just the general farke out posts. Sorry if it came across as that mate.
21.) 16 Sep 2024 09:41:23
Not a problem Berm, I mean I’ve even given positive reviews to your movies and lead role acting before.!
Football is a game of differing opinions and win lose or draw evokes different but often passionate responses, I believe to get the most return out of the experience of supporting your team you have to feel passionate and excited about your team including its coach and the style of play and with Farkey, it’s just meh underwhelming for me.
But until there’s a better alternative I’ll continue to cheer the boys on, in the hope he proves me very wrong and it’s exciting watching us play again.
14 Sep 2024 15:32:55
Fortunately missed most of that game, as at family event in a lovely pub garden. My mate who did watch most of game (Brighton fan) said it was a Zerbi like performance when you boss the stats but go absolutely bloody nowhere with the ball.
Caught Farkes press conference and another friend Palace supporter described it’s…A bloke endlessly peeing down ya back claiming it’s not his fault it’s still raining.
Squads definitely good enough but three wins in sixteen games says we have a manager who is either beyond stubborn or has actually lost the team, time will tell.
1.) 14 Sep 2024 16:30:18
Our biggest issue is Farke. Those subs are just symptomatic of his lack of ideas and inability to manage a game throughout it's duration. All he does at the minute is pick the starting lineup. There's no discernable ability to effectively impact games positively with him. When we start losing we may as well be watching the same game over and over again, as we've seen it so often when we've given away the first goal.
This squad would do better without him in all honesty. He's learned nixy plonk from his previous mistakes last season and that's dangerous for us.
(Caveat as I'm sure people will say what about the missed chances) I'm talking after the chances. They didn't go in so it's then on Farke to make changes to positively impact the game. He completely sucked the momentum out of us with those first lot of subs.
2.) 14 Sep 2024 17:36:08

Think I’d rather slide down a razor blade using my balls as brakes that sit through another meaningless international break which has been designed to get more piggies to the trough and increased television revenue, by involving the “lesser” international teams.
So more air travel and risks of your players being injured across all parts of the world all under the name of globalisation of the beautiful game “so that all benefit ” .
I’m sure Infant…tino lives in some hidden lair somewhere stroking his cat thinking up other wealthy countries without any civil or human rights just to get a few more Rolexes for his collection.
I never knew when England were playing ROI who was covering the game and who was playing, which says everything about my love of the international game,
And we’ve got further breaks in September and November to come.
Then come the Christmas schedule when undoubtedly there will be cries of these poor footballers cannot sustain this punishing schedule year on year as they limp over the finish line to complete the season before jetting off to Australia, America and Asia to play many pointless friendles on unsuitable playing surfaces as that sells shirts and builds greater tv revenue.

Reading between the lines of the Premier League’s response to the Appeals Panel having upheld Leicesters appeal.
Does the decision set a precedent (as claimed by premier league) irrespective of Leicester exceeding the financial fair play spending threshold……they could not be punished as they were no longer under the jurisdiction of the EPL whilst in the Championship?
I mean it will be a miracle if I am interpreting this correctly, but it’s a huge loophole if this is correct and means we, other relegated teams should not have been restricted in their spending? Through fear of PSR sanctions.
I’m not advocating reckless spending here, and the summary is Leicester got away with carrying that overspent squad straight back up to the money pot…. but if you’re Everton or Forest supporters!
What the F!
{Ed001's Note - and it is not the first time they have done it either.}
1.) 04 Sep 2024 10:58:43
It’s very likely this loophole has been abused before, it’s been said that both Villa and Wolves were involved when relegated and promoted by the timing of their accounts. I don’t know why such a simple loophole was not resolved. It does make you think, wtf is going on here?
As to Leicester fans they won’t care one bit about what their owners are up to, quite rich that only 12 months ago they were prepared to sue Everton for doing exactly the same as them.
In my eyes Leicester and teams like them who have breached the rules and let’s get this right "cheated"
they are no different from say a sports person who takes performance enhancing drugs to gain an unfair advantage.
Bottom line is that Leicester FC are cheats!
2.) 04 Sep 2024 11:31:29
Again the ger view podcast explained it well
The prem is in fear of the big clubs saying I’m going to join super leauge, like a kid saying I’m going home and taking my ball with me
The smaller clubs allow it as they are scared of a premier league without the big clubs in it
So then the little clubs are useing the loopholes the premier allow for the bigger clubs.
They should just scrap the lot.
3.) 04 Sep 2024 13:02:53
I think Man City will be looking for potential loopholes as it’s very clear that the P&S rules are far from watertight.
Berm if these rules are scrapped then be prepared for Man City, with or without Pep will dominate the Prem for decades with their bottomless pit of money, same goes for Newcastle.
In fact you can call it the English/ Saudi Premiership because they will own it.
Don’t think the Super League will ever happen either, to take the fans away from the game and replace it with a largely corporate attendance it will simply fall apart.
4.) 04 Sep 2024 13:51:37
Good summary OP they’ve cheated end off, how they have the nerve to claim moving their accounts being filed on 13 months (thus avoiding punishment) was simply to bring the football club in line with the parent Company.
History will not forget and hopefully karma results in their immediate relegation, had no idea they had done this previously Ed!
{Ed001's Note - yes mate, the time they won promotion and then went and won the Prem a couple of seasons later, they completely ignored FFP then as well. Karma didn't exactly bite them as ignoring it, and being allowed to get away with it, led to their one and only Premier League title.}
5.) 04 Sep 2024 14:12:41
It is sickening how a club like Leicester can get away with very clearly with breaking the rules, while other clubs who commit the same offense are penalized.
Perhaps there will be no karma for Leicester in the immediate future but I think I know roughly what the opposition fans will be singing in the terraces.
I am a firm believer in what comes around goes around, it will present itself eventually.

Man City will dominate anyway they’ve spent 1.2 billion on players since pep took over
Under the current system big teams can cheat and medium teams can bend same rules as bigger clubs. Meanwhile those in second tier get screwed
They can’t fix it otherwise the super leauge will become real so I think scrap it or punish just one club (city) but let the rest know it could happen to anyone.
7.) 04 Sep 2024 16:41:40
I say encourage the Super League Berm ?
Think it will happen anyway soon enough anyway especially with Barcas significant financial strife, but it would make for a really interesting and unpredictable EPL for a very welcome change.

It is all wrong; points deductions, at the levels they are issued [or not in this case], are hardly a penalty for these teams. Everton and Forest basically wipe the slate clean with little real jeopardy. They should be relegated and not as a replacement for one of the "bottom three. " Wage caps, no fans and transfer embargos should also be imposed.
Plenty say well its not the fans fault, but hey they are happy enough when their team is buying players they can't afford, winning matches that they shouldn't be. Perhaps teams might have a lot more respect for their fans in other circumstances. As draconian as it sounds, managers of said teams, should be struck off for a period [like a director of a company acting improperly]
If you think about it, the three teams above Leeds in the relegation season, i. e. Everton, Leicester and Forest, all essentially cheated. Villa were basically cheating when they were promoted, as were Leicester at the time.
The ramifications for the teams around them are potentially immense. Had Leeds not been relegated, we would have had another £150M turnover last year, none of the "loan clauses, " would have ever come to the light of day and all that crap that followed; likewise, this season, we wouldn't have been losing our best players; this is where the powers that be, need to understand the real impact of what these teams are doing and how it not only distorts the offending team, but it questions the whole integrity of the competition.
{Ed001's Note - I agree with you. It is supposed to be about sustainability, so they should have to have caps and transfer embargoes to ensure they return to within the allowed limits. That should be automatic and should apply no matter whether teams are relegated or promoted anywhere within the football pyramid - so long as it is within the English FA's structure.}

Super leauge will be awful for the prem as it is hugely devalued if the big six leave which is why little clubs put up with big clubs cheating.
I think it’s wrong look at Liverpool and arsenal who play by the rules to be chested by city and there over rated manager pep who I can’t stand.
If they uh ooo o punish city big five will be happy and then everyone plays by the rules
Remember you only have to punch the biggest bully.
10.) 04 Sep 2024 21:53:47
Bielsa sh! te and Pep overrated. My god ?♂️?? heard it all now.
11.) 04 Sep 2024 22:19:30
I’m actually surprised Newcastle seem to be staying within PSR. So far anyway.
Good point that the Pool n Arsenal have respect for the rules too.
12.) 04 Sep 2024 22:26:54
Just read this on twitter about Chelsea with another novel way to circumvent PSR. Per ESPN
"Exclusive: Premier League clears Chelsea's £76.5m sale of two hotels to a sister company in a deal which aids their compliance with PSR. Sale was being assessed for "fair market value" but that process has now concluded. "
Utter sh! tshow.
13.) 05 Sep 2024 06:43:00
Dill your final sentence sums it up for me . very disappointed by football ( authorities) with yesterday's news . aimo.
14.) 05 Sep 2024 06:47:16
Dikl in Bermo World.
KP is pony, Bielsa is sheite, Pep is overated
Neil Harris is best thing since sliced bread
Tony Cascarino best striker on planet
Warnock and Farke better than Shankley.
15.) 05 Sep 2024 07:38:42
All teams need to do is get a half decent contract lawyer to go through the legalese and see what loophole to exploit. The world is their oyster.
16.) 05 Sep 2024 08:13:14
Maybe there is a loophole in the transfer deadline laws and we can buy all year round.
17.) 05 Sep 2024 11:23:31
Baz kp is shi@e
Pep is for me highly over rated klopp went toe to toe with him having spent around 800 million less
Belisa is useless match day manager
Farke and warnock are two best managers this leauge has ever seen (unlike bubs they don’t need to do end 45 million in one season to get promoted)
Harris is decent as what he does
Shankly was a legend and all time great, up there with busby, sir alf and clough.
18.) 05 Sep 2024 12:58:51
Mo mention at all for the pretty good Tony Cascarino Berma.? .
You do know he played for your Millwall mob for2 to 3 seasons and was frankly far too good for them.
Before moving on to have very good success with proper clubs.
19.) 05 Sep 2024 13:10:13
Farke Berma? . he had literally a champ cheat code of £140 miĺlion pounds of forward talent Summèville, Rutter, Gnonto, Danny James, Piroe and even Bamford who scored 9 goals
You do realise that FOUR of Farkes six seasons in England have been failures
Mid table Champo season
Flunked promotion season
And two relegations
Best manager? ?
20.) 05 Sep 2024 13:32:32
Farke and warnock are statically the best managers so even you can’t argue but I’m sure you will
And of course I know Tony, my uncle was mates with him and I went to school with his niece.
Remember around bermondsey I’m quite a face bit like how your famous in this group only dare I say I’m confident I’m a bit more popular in real life.
21.) 05 Sep 2024 14:12:34
Bielsa has the highest win percentage in the championship. Of all time. Better than Farke Warnock Harris Big Sam and whoever else you can think of.
22.) 05 Sep 2024 14:40:44
Not even famous 5 bermo. Maybe 2.
?
23.) 05 Sep 2024 14:43:40
You have ' Quite a face ' you say Berma?
Hmmm I have seen your recent online video interview Berma re your latest movie . what a handsome and humble cheeky chappy you are! . promise ?.
24.) 05 Sep 2024 14:45:25
Lmao Corky . Berma I don't need to disprove again your fantasy stats. Corkster has done so.
25.) 05 Sep 2024 17:45:18
Not trying to disprove anyone just putting the facts out.
26.) 05 Sep 2024 19:35:14
Bermo, just to point out your hypocrisy. You put Klopp on a pedestal for spending less money and by default implying he had an inferior squad than Pep and Citeh. You're saying he overachieved with an inferior side. But Bielsa had an objectively worse team that got us to the prem and all the time we were in the Prem than Farke had last season, but he's sh! te?
Interesting that one overachieved and is praised and one massively overachieved with a pretty poor team, yet he's called sh! te. Lmao, make no sense you, mate.
And if money was the only contributing factor then Man U would've won a few titles since their last one as they've spent sh! tloads ove those years an all. Pep is clearly a very talented manager (as is Klopp) Let's have it right here.
And Corky with the mic drop, haha.
27.) 05 Sep 2024 19:46:41
Not sure about Belisa just know that statically farke has the most points per game and warnock has the most promotions and know Belisa spent more getting leeds promoted than a lot of premier league teams soent…45 million in one season. Not an achievement in my book not when others do the same on 10% if that or less.
And baz when a Londoner says a face it don’t mean pretty it means people know who they are and respect them… hence you’ve watch my interview and I ain’t the foggiest what you look like.
28.) 05 Sep 2024 20:44:40
I only watched a couple of minutes of your interview Berma .
30 Aug 2024 22:50:03
Yes he signed club have also confirmed that ends Leeds transfer business in or out for this window.
30 Aug 2024 13:52:30
Think this boy could be a superstar for us, your patience is starting to reap rewards Aus ?.
24 Aug 2024 11:43:42
Not a risk if he’s a loaner he would just return but he is a terrifically talented player on his day and may bring a little X factor with him, certainly worth a shot.
19 Aug 2024 13:09:17
Wasn’t it Antonson? Ended up going to Blackburn didn’t he? I recall he was a hard working industrious type forward, sadly was unable to score goals.
13 Aug 2024 16:39:56
Cheers Ed, for that excellent breakdown of some exciting young prospects, sort of understandable as to why Slot hasn’t rushed to the transfer market himself to date, if he already has some potential nuggets in the academy.
{Ed001's Note - the academy is producing a lot right now - but it should be pointed out that a large portion of them were recruited nearly fully developed, such as Nyoni, who was signed from Leicester. He looks to be the crown jewel.}
16 Sep 2024 20:49:33
Does happen with certain managers at certain clubs, for Mourhinio all the time more recently.
16 Sep 2024 17:05:00
Incredibly sad, such an exciting player to watch, deepest sympathies with his family.
16 Sep 2024 16:40:22
Oh wasn’t suggesting Moyes for us, just see him topping up his pension fund in the Championship this season, bearing in mind my predictions record.
16 Sep 2024 12:54:13
Oh happy to post my lottery numbers Cleggy just stay well clear.
16 Sep 2024 11:53:56
Think if it’s a very quick appointment Brighty says they already had someone lined up.
Can see David Moyes managing in the championship for someone this season.
