Think we are getting better each game, Enjoyed todays game which we were unlucky not to win. Downside all three subs were clueless. Austin keeps getting slated on this site although he is the omly mid fielder prepared to run at the opposition defence. One of our better players. Fans keep calling for Sharpe to start, Not nearly good enough - that's why he was found out by previous clubs and didn't get a game. Still say he was a panic buy and is basically not worth his place. Baradi did well at left back. Morrison and Murphy are useless. Cannot understand with all the players we have we can't find better subs. I can understand why Adryan's start has been delayed. He will be worth waiting for. Apart from these comments it was a pleasure to watch a Leeds team trying to play good football - its been a long time coming.

yes better got ball into box could of done with a few going in .morison god knows why two good touches but he left chasing to others one time mc said he likes him well more a case he's costing 30k a week so play him pay him off get him out people shout billy billy but he's rubbish murphy not improved with better players around he should improve but no back four looking stronger so need a settled midfield rudy losing ball then gets it back and I think then tries to hard to make up of it and loses it again had great strike perhaps back for rudy in front 3 midfield byram ok needs to attack them when going forward goes so far then stops like been told don't go pass half way line he's got good pace but slowly but surely getting they and well are all waiting for this adryan got to be better than morison any day of the week to me 4 points lost should of been 3upf time against reading and Saturday bad goal so 3-1 but now one defeat in seven so moving forward

Missed the reading game but was happy with Saturdays performance. Kept our game plan throughout, Kept playing football and no panic with pointless long balls. Bianchi excellent in midfield very involved. Bellusci is class and defence were more together. Berardi needs to read the game a bit better but he is enthusiastic. Have watched a few development suad u21 games and Adryan has class and is a top player but seems to switch on and off which you can't do in our league so I think its more of getting him focused than lack of ability. The one who should be on the bench is Montenegro, has pace and an eye for goal and can move out wide he come on for last twenty mins in a match. Think Murphy and Morrison are in the shop window to be honest think they will be gone in jan. Sharp is a poacher and will feed off loose balls in box but the way we play now he needs to be more involved than that. Taylor also is having some good games so think he may make bench for cup games. Overall happy and I think next two weeks will give Milanic time to have a proper look at all the players realise that the benchhe put out is not our best option. By the way Benedicic is nursing a sore ankle so him not being in first team squad does not mean Milanic thinks he's crap like some have suggested. Top six in jan mot

I like the new style of play very much. Keeping the ball and working openings rather than a hopefully punt up field is much more effective and without an inspired display by Westwood yesterday, we would've won comfortably. Auntie Lucy is great to watch. OK, he gets caught offside but that's inevitable when you play on the shoulder of the last defender. He makes things happen and is a nightmare to mark. My only slight criticism would be that we tend to overplay at the back sometimes and Wednesday obviously did their homework on us as in the first ten minutes we could barely get out of our own half. Berradi was forced into getting rid on a couple of occasions. Having said that we improved as the game went on and this style of play with the personnel we have suits. Good to watch and long may it continue.

I think we are so much better than last season and have so much potential. Think people being harsh on Sharpe is wrong, he has not been found out by other clubs his record is good, ok he didn't do well at southampton but they had two england forwards ahead of him so think about it? Think sharpe has a lot to offer and feed him he will score as he always has. Love aunt lucy great feet real purpose and intent to strecth game, ok he is offside a lot but that will get better and is sign of a good forward (look at inzagi always offside but great player). Think our football is too good, prefer it to be a bit worse but more effective. at end of day wendesday played worse but got same points, sometimes you need to be ugly and direct and need to mix it up, that said great to see we can play that way and football was very pretty. Agree with MM overplaying at the back will invite pressure and will cuase mistakes and cost us goals over the season. Said it before and say it again, maybe just maybe adryan, benovic and miloniciv (not great with names) are not in squad as they are not the answer some think they are. At one point we was all saying wow thomas brolin what a signing he is the answer why ain't he starting or wow roque jrn he will fix our defensive problems. people are calling for unknowns on hearsay yet slagging sharpe a tried and proven player. still seems bit odd to me. hope they are good and think they might be but until we see and until they prove it can we not just lay off them and stop banging the apprently he is proper good he will be amazing drum. proof is in pudding not in what people say

Bermondsey we get your point Adryan is unproven to you and obviously until you see him play your opinion won't change, I have followed Leeds as club for fifty years and its not just about the first team. I have watched Adryan play, twice, and if he is in the u21 against Donny will watch him again, he is good offers more than Mowatt and Austin but I think Milanic is doing right by putting him on the bench to learn the tempo of our game and how referees react and how he will get closed down when he gets the ball. In the premiership he will be a stand out player and to allow him to play at his best in this league the rest of our midfield need to be playing as a unit. Sharp is a good goalscorer but he needs to be moving about more and making spaces, for himself and others he needs more to his game than goalpoaching. This is the first time in over ten years I can say he way things are going, a few more signings and we have a top squad with quality. Watch out for Montenegro when he gets a chance think he has a lot to offer. Maybe you should try and get to some reserve matches and then when you see Mulhern, Phillips, Purver on the bench you will know they have earned the right to be there, mot

That's you told off BW!!
I await your response! (microscope in pocket and mints ready)

Living in london makes it hard to get to reserve games to be honest. but watching leeds for all that time you will know those who are good for reserves can get lost in 1st team games. same with diffecne between our league and prem. terratt of QPR was best player in championship and useless in prem due to change of what is around him. Mowatt needs to get head up more but is good player and lewis cook even better. just find it annoying when lots of people keep saying why ain't adryan playing, answer is because the people who know more than us are not picking him it is that simple, maybe he needs time maybe he will not cut it only time will tell. Sharpe is what he is and is the best at our club for doing that, and the best we have had for a while at doing that poaching, saying he needs to add more to his game is silly like saying linaker needed to add more to his game or alan clarke. don't get me wrong both are better than sharpe but they all do the same job put the ball in the net nothing more nothing less. until he starts missing chances I think people should get off his back and support him. he has done nothing wrong in leeds shirt other than nick us 3 points in one game. he will not beat players or create but that is not his job. that said BIGE of course I will respect your opinion as you have seen them in action I have not but until thoes in the know pick them shall we all just let it be rather than call for the mystical players who have never played in this difficult league

You trying to tell us Sharpe is a sibling of urs??
Last 6 posts youve mentioned how good he is i'm getting worried lol

9.) 05 Oct 2014
I too see a lot of U21 & again recently dev squad games & have to agree Adryan is quality but goes missing a bit. Dawson, Montenegro, Purver, my fav is Phillips, oozes class & finds time on ball where others don't. Mulhearn & McDaid will make 1st team one day.
Thought Mowatt was excellent yesterday along with Bianchi. Austin did well too but got injured in first half doing that long shot. For the first time Mowatt run the midfield & is now getting it. He really is becoming very good. Antenucci has been so unluckyimo. He makes great runs butwe are too slow to see them so offside a lot. Sometimes that quick forward pass from midfield will put him in on goal. Both Ant & Douk join midfield & help run at defences, ththat's not Sharps game at all but doesn't mean he's not worth his place in squad, of course he is. Now Morisson, I believe if he had a run of games when Ant or Douk are injured he will make you change your minds. He is very good as we saw pre season. Murphy is pants & needs selling off as we have so much betterin midfield as iI've mentioned.
My only real criticism is Berardi at left back. Warnock would have stopped that goal yesterday as he has done all season so far. Berardi is ok but not a patch on Warnock. Did you actually see Berardi didn't attempt to block the shot & that's just not good enough.
All in all really pleased like many on here. It can only get better under classy Darko imo. MOT

Not saying Sharp is not a good player. Needs to get more involved, 25 minutes-8 touches-no shots not good enough in a derby game when you come on and need to impress, just because he has been prolific in past does not mean all teams have to play to his strengths he sometimes has to adapt. Same with Morrison he was good but can't expect his past to get him a first team place. Glad Milanic is looking at everyone though and making his own mind up. MOT

Agree warnock should be first team left back on sat was a liabiltiy and kept getting caught in postetion too close to our goal. and no honest i'm not related to billy just think some cirticism is bit harsh. agree 8 touches is not enough but part of that is our midfeild getting ball too him no point billy dropping back or changing game as then he will be no use to anyone

12.) 05 Oct 2014
Agree BW. Sharpey does his best and he's only here as a goal poacher, and when given something to poach, he will do just that. I think he's sound

ok your right if Milanic is at the match tonight am going to tell him, hey guv when you put sharpie on can you tell sully and ant to do more running about and pulling defenders out of position cause sharpies a poacher and if we get a corner or pen tell ant to try and hit the post cause sharpie will get the rebound ok

14.) 06 Oct 2014
Thank you bige for seeing sense tell darko to tell his players exactly what ferguson told his players about rudd van nisteroy and venerbals about linaker, sharpe not in same class but very good at this level. players like him have to do one thing poach and score like he did when we stole a win under hockaday. these players have been bread and butter since footbal began and darko should know this
