So apparently firpo has been suspended for 3 games for
Violent conduct against Millwall starting with todays game? Apparently we have been informed this morning - the morning of the game .
1.) 09 Nov 2024 12:37:07
Just seen the footage. This is an utter joke of a decision. Was as violent as blowing out a candle! What was much more violent, was our old assistant, Pep Clotet’s shaking by the neck of his player who had just been red carded! Look it up, it’s brilliant!
2.) 09 Nov 2024 13:34:24
Wasn't his neck at all. False reporting. It was his shirt. Grabbed it upper chest region. No contact made with neck whatsoever.
3.) 09 Nov 2024 13:38:58
Whatever Walter……??♂️.
4.) 09 Nov 2024 17:06:17
Myopic. Attend Specsavers. Virtually every single person on the planet would engage immediate self-defense when attacked in the neck but no such reaction from the player.

One thing is for certain gents, WE ALL LOVE LEEDS! MOT.
7.) 10 Nov 2024 15:52:35
Indeed Hooksie. That’s one thing I don’t doubt.
16 Aug 2024 08:49:31
Anyone seen or heard Strujk to Fulham for £12.5m?
I've seen one source report it.
1.) 16 Aug 2024 09:53:03
Think you got a couple buddies below mighty.
Not sure re the rumour though. Is 12 good for struik? Could we replace him for less?
2.) 16 Aug 2024 11:20:17
12 would be awful for Pasc in my opinion.
3.) 16 Aug 2024 13:06:27
£12m would be shocking business. So we will probably sell him.
26 Jul 2024 13:02:18
See one rumour on Twitter saying we have signed Jay Fulton from Swansea for 500k? Can't find any other reference to this anywhere so I'll take it as BS.
1.) 27 Jul 2024 00:55:35
Fulton nearly signed. Not likley as player as demanded higher wage and cannot agree terms 4/ 10 likely to happen next window. , Sara early talks but way of it just sniffing around. Confient summerville staying. 5/ 10. Word is recruitment traveling to germany on koln signing a midfielder. Whispers sound legit. Woking progess 8/ 10 legit.
2.) 27 Jul 2024 06:55:22
Decent news for northwest Surrey.
3.) 27 Jul 2024 22:07:01
Pinch of salt he has been on the scout list since last season. At the moment no talks of either club in talks of a deal. Still an option in case of future sales.
4.) 28 Jul 2024 21:23:03
Kewell? Interesting name as that player probably divides opinion more than any other Leeds player.
5.) 29 Jul 2024 11:24:34
Kewell great player. end of.
13 Jul 2024 18:56:12
Sounds like Kamara to Rennes for €10m is a done deal
Not a bad player but I think Kamara put Rothwell in is an upgrade .
I don't think there is room for Gruev, Ampadu and Kamara in midfield
So similar.
1.) 13 Jul 2024 20:26:23
Kamara gone is good news imo.
2.) 13 Jul 2024 20:34:48
Kamara and Rothwell different profiles. In fact all four are different profiles to each other. Shame if he goes. Kamara was good at progressing us up the pitch. The man that made us tick between defence and attack.
Kamara a progressive passer, technical on the ball.
Rothwell more of a runner to progress play, tenacious.
Gruev has workrate, tackler, more of a lateral passer.
Ampadu deep lying playmaker, press resistant, good passing range
Room for all of them imo as each does a different job.
3.) 13 Jul 2024 22:52:44
Dillinger - Gruev isn’t just a lateral passer - probably better at longer passes into final third than Kamara.
4.) 13 Jul 2024 23:12:29
Dill The question therefore is what's Crew's profile?
5.) 14 Jul 2024 00:40:12
Kamara pass forwards? . lmao.
6.) 14 Jul 2024 07:31:09
Clu, was being reductive so could write quickly to highlight the differences between all four. Did say MORE of a lateral passer, not JUST a lateral passer fwiw.
The majority of Gruev's passing consists of short/ mid passes laterally or vertically into the middle third. Does he ping a few long balls into the final third every now and again? Sure, but nothing regularly.
He does, Baz. Kamara's play tends to be in the final two thirds and it shows in the breakdown of his passing stats. He has 6.87 progressive passes per 90, ranking him in the 86th percentile.5.97 passes into the final third, ranking him in the 84th percentile. And 1.23 passes into the penalty area, ranking him in the 84th percentile.
I've barely watched Crew tbh, George, so wouldn't wanna say without spending a bit of time watching him first.
7.) 14 Jul 2024 08:47:16
That isn’t Gruev’s natural approach. He does, and initially did, prefer to lift his head in space from deep, and play more reaching passes, similar to Kal, to the wings, and through the middle. When Farke clearly told him to keep it simple, was when the brakes were put on our faster, more flowing and varied football.
The lateral element of his play is more through managerial design than natural ability or desire.
8.) 14 Jul 2024 09:23:33
I like Kamara but all I’m saying is there isn’t room for the 4 of them
Especially with strujk now going to CB that means Ampadu likely to play in midfield and Aaronson coming back as well something has to give.
9.) 14 Jul 2024 09:56:13
Of course there's room for four players who are different profiles ? could well be Brighty. All I know is Kamara's passing stats in the attacking third are much better.
10.) 14 Jul 2024 10:33:57
Agree brighty. Def change due to farkes instruction.
Remember a few decent sprays.
And it has been reported kamara will be replaced.
11.) 14 Jul 2024 12:50:25
If it is at DF's instruction it's a weird one. Negates our ability to get up the pitch quicker. We've looked most dangerous in the transitional phase, so not sure I understand why he'd neuter part of someones game like that.
12.) 14 Jul 2024 20:43:02
Graham Smyth says another midfielder to come in, Rothwell the gray replacement.
13.) 15 Jul 2024 03:31:14
Good news.
13 Jul 2024 18:38:25
I've seen a few posts of x regarding a behind closed doors game v Chelsea over 3x45 min half's? Anyone know about this? Any potential line ups etc? I heard we lost 5-1.

Apart from the 3 points
Some things that delighted me today
Is that we rested Gnonto and started Solomon and he got 2 goals and then we bring ln Gnonto and he scores the winner .
Dan James was superb and Ramazani is back from injury on the bench, so we have real depth there now and rotation options
Also Tanaka . Phenomenal midfielder, he was everywhere . An absolute gem.
1.) 25 Nov 2024 10:19:14
DJ was superb ; MOM imo
MS his best LUFC match performance .
AO is prem quality; he played well but he has had more impressive matches for LUFC.
22 Oct 2024 22:40:15
Let's hope Ramazani injury is nothing serious.
22 Oct 2024 21:59:35
Results is what matters.
1.) 22 Oct 2024 22:06:57
Any three points are great ?.
2.) 22 Oct 2024 22:52:57
The curse of the early goal.
They lost drive and let Watford back in.
04 Oct 2024 07:22:42
So we play on October 18th v Sheffield
United, a Friday night game after the international break . Aaronson will be playing for USA b Mexico at 230am U. K. time on the. Wednesday morning .
Let's see how that goes .
1.) 04 Oct 2024 07:33:00
And Tanaka arrives back on the Thursday ( one day prior to Sheff Utd game ) I understand from Japan matches
C'est la vie if you sign international players.
2.) 04 Oct 2024 08:01:12
Aren’t all time slots shared equally through the champ? How come we get two on bounce?
3.) 04 Oct 2024 08:12:14
Because we are Leeds United Aus, pure and simple:)
4.) 04 Oct 2024 08:55:23
That’s the Leeds formula Aus,
And we’re actually very lucky that Sky think so highly off us they will do all that they can to ensure their championship football offering remains commercially viable by doing their best to keep Leeds United in the Championship for as long as possible.
5.) 04 Oct 2024 09:00:42
Baz, cest la vie if you sign non European international players.
6.) 04 Oct 2024 09:24:26
ILK yep indeed.
7.) 04 Oct 2024 14:10:31
We are worth a lot of money to the efl they don’t want us promoted.
01 Oct 2024 21:54:17
Not sure what to make of that
A point away is good but I felt we looked pretty tired late on and didn't finish very strong at all .
The injury list looks like it's growing.
1.) 01 Oct 2024 22:18:19
Thought Leeds would win so disappointed
Rodon careless and needless tackle and Meslier a waste of space on pens
neither side looked dangerous . missing 21 goals DJ hugely . pace pace pace .
2.) 01 Oct 2024 22:28:04
A point at their place is good, Norwich are on the ascendency and will do well this season. Thought we had them on the ropes in the second half, up until the substitutions were made then it kinda fell away from us.
Still happy with a draw though but not so happy to see Gruev leaving the pitch injured. Finger crossed no more injuries.
3.) 01 Oct 2024 22:28:15
Norwich unbeaten in 19 at home.
Gnoto unlucky to hit the post.
Rodon somehow makes awful mistake.
Ref is Norwich's best player.
We had a stone wall pen not given again.
Tonight was an away win at a very difficult place.
Farke out anyone?
4.) 01 Oct 2024 22:57:43
Tough place to go, rough to play against 12 men. Not sure if the commentary team mentioned it but apparently Naarwich unbeaten at home since Nov. Point not too bad but could really use 3 in the next game.
5.) 02 Oct 2024 00:08:49
Playing in championship with these refs is akin to having an 8-12 point deduction. No point discussing tactics manager or players as none of these things can beat a bent ref
Tonight the ref cost is 2 points. That could be the difference between promotion and not. And it happens 2 out of 3 weeks.
6.) 02 Oct 2024 08:25:16
That ref had more cards than Clinton's, Funky Pigeon and Moonpig put together??.
7.) 02 Oct 2024 09:03:11
Very simply put where you apportion blame Bermo .
But Farkes substitutions had no detrimental effect on game you reckon?
8.) 02 Oct 2024 09:37:21
I agree the subs were poor, pirole is great but bamford and joffy have no place on the pitch however we don’t have a big squad still paying for the ffp and all that so I put the blame of them subs on Belisa who wasted our money and got us relegated etc etc gone over this before
You have to make subs, three games in a week. If Largie stayed on the pitch got injured and was out for 10 weeks we’d all moan
So yes subs were bad but the strength in depth is not 49ners or farkes fault and I believe he couldn’t keep them players on the pitch due to fatigue.
9.) 02 Oct 2024 09:39:45
Chris he had to make subs because because of tiredness. If you let players run on empty for too long you will get more injuries. Especially largie who is not used to English football.
Rodon probably should have stayed on his feet. Farke doesn't like defenders diving in.
10.) 02 Oct 2024 09:45:04
Why does there have to be blame Chris? We got a point in a difficult place. The game was error strewn and everyone was making mistakes, plenty of them, including the officials.
Funny how everyone says Mes should save the penalty but then ignore the great save he made at the near post?
As for the subs it is impossible to know what would have been the case had in not made them (though the usual crowd would have ranting about no / late subs) , since that scenario didn’t exist. How about Norwich’s subs had a detrimental impact on us, since they made them at exactly the same time?
11.) 02 Oct 2024 10:29:28
That's my point Ani, Bermo laid it at ref, my point is why can't the 11 on field players negate that?
I didn't come on here initially apportioning blame, only replied to what I felt was a genuine question
Farke did nullify us by making substitutions thiugh.
12.) 02 Oct 2024 12:44:49
Chris how can any manager negate baised and let’s be honest cheating refs?
Last night we had awful fouls with no yellows we had a pen, last season we had the worst handball I’ve ever seen, the same ref turned down a stone wall pen last season. We had the West Brom game two pens with nothing. Preston kicked us to bits
Last season var/ or decent honest refs would of gave us enough points to see us promoted
How can any manager get us promoted when cheating stops us going up?
13.) 02 Oct 2024 13:12:53
I not commenting on anything retrospectively, as it's pointless really Bermo
Just commenting on Bamfords introduction last night and ultimately what it achieved!
14.) 02 Oct 2024 13:22:40
That's a very fair point berm. It was strange how farke threw three on at once Vs trickling them on over a few minutes at a time to let them settle in, but it is what it is. Piroe and Geldhardt were good choices, Bamford has the potential to change a game
The ref screwed us and the blame lays entirely on him. It's not the first, second or third game that the same ref has cost us with blatant bias and I hope official action is taken against him.
15.) 02 Oct 2024 14:52:05
Chris I do agree, i was gutted at the subs but what can farke do that’s our bench who else can he pick? With a game on Friday and fatigue and injuries what can he do? Bamford should never pray for leeds again but who else do you pick?
Mot I agree mate with you 100%.

Shirt pulls and cynical
Fouls he should have been sent off.
21 Jul 2024 16:11:56
I can’t imagine he would join us over a premier league club or how we can compete on the wages either.
16 Jul 2024 08:15:15
The Onana deal didn’t get them much profit about he cost £35m plus a 20% sell on clause
but also selling branthwaite will likely give them some money available as he will be all profit so that should put them in a position to buy Gnonto
Personally I’d rather if we do sell he goes to Newcastle.
04 Jul 2024 07:27:22
Well that’s true baz ?.
