after sitting behind the dugout today I tried to figure out mcdermott does, he doesn't direct the players at all as he leaves that to gibbs, i'm guessing he doesn't do training as i'm sure again that is gibbs, is there any use for him? maybe head scout but not manager or coach, his tactical decisions have been more amusing than effective and the fact he won't play youngsters 'for the fun of it' is beyond me. we massively lack creativity in midfield yet dawson is sat on the bench eager to come, instead he keeps to lads who to be fair put a shift in but were knackered after 60 min stay out there on the pitch, I feel he needs to either be assigned a new role or leave. i'm sure next season will be more fruitful and entertaining whoever we bring in.

Dawson is to little and is not yet good enough. We'd get torn apart

Glad we played a bit better but derby only brought half a team roll on next season :o)

After a great debate down the local with two fellow Leeds fans regarding a Leeds 11 from 1980s onwards, (as we were too young for Revies era) here is my team. Martyn. Kelly. Dorigo. Dacourt. Woodgate. Ferdinand. Strachan. Yeboah. Viduka. McAliister. Speed. Some near misses were Batty for Dacourt, Fairclough for Ferdinand and my all time favourite player John Sheridan for McAllister. Yeboah just edged out Hasselbaink and if i'm honest Kewell wasnt a million miles away either. I trully believe the above team would walk the Premiership this season as it has the lot. Pace, power, skill in abundance, and just as important some real leaders, which our current team badly lacks. Any player picked had to have played 50 or more games for Leeds which rules out some. most notably Cantona and Brolin! Any thoughts lads on who we should have included or maybe even forgotten (afternoon drinking dulls the brain)? Anyway role on next season! MOT.

Ian Harte
Gary Kelly
Lucas Radebe
Lee Bowyer

Deserve a mention CORK ;)

I would have had batty. Not dacourt. And hass not yeboah. Those goals were fantastic but hass better! Kewell had one season when he was rivaling beckam for best player in brit football. They got 50. We got 5?

Agree0 Disagree0

I would have Sterland for Kelly but agree with the rest. Great selection. I might have found a place for Jones. Great player grossly underrated.

Agree0 Disagree0

For me Radebe has to be in ahead of Ferdinand. Lukic in for Martyn possibly. Some great players there and some great memories.

Agree0 Disagree0

Fatman
100% percent agree, Radebe was and still is a legend great memories ;)

matt smith could be our leading goalscorer next season if we can sign two quality wingers, we have a good strike force, the future is all white, the future is leeds

Hi al not at the game today but apparently we put them under some good pressure today we had 39 shots in total today derby 21 was this a much better game for us attacking or did derby just go through the motions as 4 out of 5 wins may help keep b mc in a job next season! can you guys tell me what we really played like as I'm blooming confused why since mc has come in we are getting better results
Cheers
LEEDS for life

{Ed013's Note - Leeds were the better team and should have won, but Derby had their minds on the playoffs}

Better results may have come now we have a settled club. Yes results are better but 3 wins against relegation threatened teams is not much to shout about. Anyway expect a big clear out and 5 or 6 quality players in. I wouldn't get carried away, I can't see us spending millions. I think MC has realised the club is in a worse state than he thought. Well done to GFH who we thought were our saviours but it turns out nearly bankrupted us.

I would like to see us go for graham dorrans and a season long loan for Dwight gayle I think both would be brilliant additions and would not cost much

Lloyd Dyer and Sone Aluko as our two wingers next year
