Thomas to Leeds? We need a left back. Hope it's not hi jacked.
1.) 30 Aug 2023 11:53:34
Reported this morning that the clubs have reached agreement over the transfer.
2.) 30 Aug 2023 16:46:56
I’ve read he’s going to Blunts.
29 Jun 2023 19:29:21
Leeds official saying appointment NOT imminent. Probably tomorrow then.
16 Jan 2021 23:55:08
15th to 17th most realistic ambition but we will have to play better and hope a miracle happens with the pitch. When you rely on a system of play with average players you get found out at the top level. Casilla, Struijk, Rodrigo and Bamford the spine. Not good enough. Roberts, Hernandez and Lovers off the bench. Not good enough. Raphinia on wrong wing. Dallas and Alioski not good at this level. Bielsa showing his age? We were good to start with but we could always concede and we only looked certain to get three points when we were three goals up.
29 Jan 2020 07:55:37
Papered over the cracks. Very good second half but we were very poor in the first half. Even playing that bad we made chances against a very average Millwall team but couldn't convert. Hanford as usual the main culprit but others were wasteful as well. We need to sort out the defensive frailalties at set pieces but how you do it with Cooper at the back and a system where Alioski is marking a player six inches taller than him I don't know. We are top of the league but other results keep us there at the moment. Great result in the circumstances but still a worry.
1.) 29 Jan 2020 09:33:55
Got to agree hess, this season we have either been tight at the back and miss firing up front or poor at the back but scoring a few. Last night's game and the Brum game, both wins but easily have lost them. We have done well to stay where we are but worry that failing to strengthen the back line will again cost us this season.
2.) 29 Jan 2020 10:03:18
I think we rode our luck a lot in the first half of the season and some wonder saves plus mistakes from opponents contributed to our good defensive record. There were a few games where I thought if we'd have conceded we might have lost but we kept them out. we haven't been as lucky since Cardiff and that, too is changing games. Maybe we can't be both defensive and score goals and have to accept that we need to be a bit more gung ho and try and outscore the opposition. Worries me with the amount of chances we miss though. Hope the new recruits can go some way to address that and Bamford somehow goes on a scoring streak now until the end of the season.

Totally disagree. would not have flattered Leeds if it had ended 6-2.
4.) 30 Jan 2020 13:47:07
not sure where you have been all season Whitelight but almost every game we could have had 6 if we had taken our chances. The fact is we don't.
20 Jan 2020 15:40:17
Seems we have a good chance of signing an 18 year old Italian goal keeper. Promotion guaranteed then!
1.) 20 Jan 2020 16:21:35
He’s been training with us for the last ten days, and is expected to be understudy to Meslier when he steps up following Kiko’s expected ban. Miazek not seen as good enough yet.
2.) 20 Jan 2020 17:30:27
And supposed to be top class too.
3.) 20 Jan 2020 18:59:23
Arent they all Martyn.
4.) 20 Jan 2020 20:30:46
Meslier looked pretty handy vs gooners, (and 23’s) , so if he’s anything like him, then great!

On the one hand going will probably mean been smashed nearly every week. On the other staying down will probably mean losing our best players and the sense of missing out on achieving what the season was about. Co flictrd there.

Short lived lifeline!
13 Apr 2024 16:48:48
Out of the depths of despair a possible lifeline!
1.) 13 Apr 2024 17:03:59
???.

Farke resignation? Farke dismissal?
3.) 13 Apr 2024 17:33:37
Shut up George!
13 Apr 2024 14:35:06
Today's result makes my prediction of Ipswich and Southampto getting the automatic promotion spots less far fetched. And we don't win play offs!
1.) 13 Apr 2024 15:15:00
A few weeks ago a certain poster on here proclaimed Southampton were " out of " top 2 race
Southampton scored in first minute today
they likely be just 6 points behind Leeds with 2 games in hand .
Its in Southampton own hands now to finish above Leeds.
2.) 13 Apr 2024 15:41:28
It shouldn’t have been the case of what the other sides around us were doing.
We were in the privileged position of taking care of our own games, and we were there. All the chances we created again today, you can be sure our opponents would have taken them against us. Another twelve corners, the crowd are cheering and anticipating something every corner, and not a threat again. Lee Bromby made a very valid point today, saying Summerville is the most fouled player in the championship, and that’s fact, and every foul is in an advanced position, and we have no one that can take a decent set piece.
They score from a lump up the pitch from their keeper, a knock on from the centre forward, simple pass to szmodics and he scores past a kneeling meslier
Our 6’3” centre forward gets a lovely cross into the box, unmarked, in the middle of the box and “heads” it with his shoulder!
We really need to grow a pair of plums. How many teams kick us all over the pitch?
06 Apr 2024 17:51:19
I predicted third behind Leicester and Southampton earlier in the season. However, I am still hoping to be wrong. Not just about Southampton. I can see us pulling it off but no more dropped points. We are capable. We just need to believe. Too flat today. We've been pulling out results without playing well but we didn't manage it today. Don't know where the spark has gone but it can come back as quickly as it went. Head says play offs but I an certain we can pull out the stops and make it with a one last push.
1.) 06 Apr 2024 19:09:45
That international break came at the wrong time for us hess. We have lost our rhythm. Today everything was too slow. We kept hold of the ball better up to the front. We let the tempo drop too much. Well we have had the streaky draw and th loss hope that's it.
2.) 06 Apr 2024 19:53:08
Leeds will drop more points away at Boro and QPR with same team selection/ lethargic style of play.
3.) 07 Apr 2024 07:03:17
But will it be the same team selection, and will we see that same lethargy? I doubt the players will be happy with that performance. Personally, I doubt DJ, Kammy or Bam will start next game. Have some faith, and try to be positive!
{Ed025's Note - its easy to confuse lethargy with fatigue and tiredness Brighty, its been a hard slog since the turn of the year and the pressure of being at the top can take its toll mate,especially on the younger players..
4.) 07 Apr 2024 12:42:46
Ain’t going to disagree with that Ed, and definitely probably a better choice of terminology!
{Ed025's Note - dont do yourself down Brighty, you are a very good poster mate..
5.) 07 Apr 2024 17:27:11
Bright ; What makes you think DF will drop PB for Sunderland match? ( DF just 2 matches ago stating that PB is the man for him to start because of his ' experience '
Here's hoping .
30 May 2019 22:58:19
Miracles? - Yes to a degree but in real/ concrete terms we are no better than before. - In the championship. When someone gets us out then it will be a miracle.
13 Apr 2024 16:31:08
Fancy Southampton to go up automatically with Ipswich.
01 Apr 2024 21:40:31
Bamford is ok holding the ball up. Ok but not great and a lot better than his goal scoring.
09 Mar 2024 12:26:09
At that time he had been a very god championship player when his first move to Leeds was announced. He became a very poor Premiership player and lost his confidence. He returned to Leeds as a very good good Championship player with no confidence and was playing badly in the championship. He could have remained poor but for the intervention of Farke who restored his confidence and performance. There are times when he is inconsistent and underperforms. That's what makes him very good not excellent.
09 Mar 2024 10:08:21
Always said James was a very good Championship player not one I think you would want playing regularly in the Premiership. I guess / hope that he will will be one of those players who help teams get promoted from the Championship and the transferred so he can do it all over again.
02 Mar 2024 18:50:44
Definitely. Poor results against Wednesday, Preston Rotherham away and others. What a loser.
