Use our rumours form to send us leeds transfer rumours.

03 Oct 2015 23:30:18
I really did think that Rosler was the man to take us forward but now I'm not so sure.
I think we have a much better squad than last season but are doing just as badly (if not worse).
I don't like sacking managers (sorry coaches) after such a short time, but maybe it needs to happen sooner rather than later, before this season becomes another right off!
I am the wrong side of 50 and I am worried I will never see my beloved team back in the big time before I shuffle off this mortal coil.
God I've got to stop drinking brandy it gets me so depressed!
HOW LONG HAVE WE GOT TO WAIT FOR IT TO COME GOOD!
LOT (limping on together)

Not finding much to argue with there Danum. Its enough to drive us all to drink.
GET A GRIP (not you Danum)
They all need to grow a pair or leave in my humble opinion.

Agree
I believe we have the talent to go up or be damn close
Just not transferring to pitch
UWE is not getting best out of them
So
Get somebody that can
This is the easiest league for years
Change now. And we still have time!

One of our many problems is lack of creativity and balance in midfield. It's time for Dawson. Someone has to ping the ball around. No one does that at the moment.

Agree Georgie its midfield that's not doing the job. 60% possession and nothing to show . Botaka needs to start and give Phillips, or Dawson, the attacking midfield role. Murphy and Mowatt take too long to pick a pass out. Ady as holding midfielder. We also have Sloth who is experienced for his age and Bianchi when he is fit so have the players. Rosler needs to sort out who is best. No good expecting it all to fall into place because we got some wingers. Midfield need to make the telling pass and its not happening. We let teams come onto us which puts pressure on defence, Needs more passion in midfield, need to be up and down the pitch, full back should not be one on one with opposing winger with midfielder ten yards behind him.When opposition attacking should only be Wood left up front everyone else should be doing a job.

It was a very disappointing game yesterday we had a great deal of possession but created very little threat to the opponents goal. One of the main reasons is the fact that our midfield is so weak. Why does Rosler chose to use Cook our most dynamic player as a defensive player when he has a purpose made man in Adeyeme. Also why does he feel that Mowatt can provide service to the attackers he is slow and lethargic and frustrates the life out of me, we must have better players at the club than him at the moment. Murphy also does not win any accolades he hardly performs well in midfield four. Looking at our bench yesterday had three defenders one winger one midfield and one attacking player on it. We were the home team, that bench to me looked very defensive. I think that Roslers mentality is all wrong for games at Elland Road and that mentality is being preached so much to the players they are playing with more fear than flair. One bright light in the game was the introduction of Jordan Botaka what a breath of fresh air a player with lots of tricks in is locker his fellow team mates need to take a leaf out of his book.

Good post EKW. It is telling that the player showing the flair is a newbie at the club. Bamba Cook Mowatt and Dallas have all been off their game last few weeks. Mowatt really all season of course. Is Rosler a flair preventer?

Bit premature Ausman but come December if we are playing the same would would question Roslers ability to take us up

Really bige? Ud give him more time?'

Agree0 Disagree0

04 Oct 2015 12:05:22
Def we got new players settling in and he's tried his system and a good coach will realise its not the best option so will change, he has to attack teams in this division which to me means we can not play Mowatt and Murphy in same team. Was hoping he would use squad more and give young lads a rest now and then but presently doing what every other coach has done past ten years and stick with same idea same players whether they are performing or not. Mowatt should have been out three games ago, Wood if not hundred per cent should be on bench, need to have faith in squad, hopefully he will change things

Agree0 Disagree0

04 Oct 2015 18:55:13
Doesn't matter if you or me would give him more time but I can't seem MC giving him much

Well how poor was that!!

To pedestrian, to predictable, no flare and no idea.

Why did Buckley start? obviously no where near match fitness.

To much hoof up to Wood

No movement.

Botaka and Anti gave us a glimmer of hope.

Beradi was excellent and my MOM just ahead of Sol the rest today were 3 out of 10.

Well if that's what happens when you've done your homework may I surgest the uwe maybe needs to go back to school!! Certainly wouldn't be getting star plus results. Fails all the way!!

Forget going back to school. He is in school. He is being schooled. He needs to be expelled.

Rosler time to go Rosler Rosler time to go.

Survivor or Untouchables who do we have lined up as a replacement?

Agree0 Disagree0

03 Oct 2015 20:13:34
I know we won't get him as MC doesn't want someone he can't boss about but only Lucas Radabe is the man for me.
He loves Leeds United.
Everyone loves him.
He has his badges.
Sadly since his wife passed away he's tied himself to South Africa and his kids.
But he is the man.

Agree0 Disagree0

03 Oct 2015 22:28:59
Ok I will tell you what I have been told George.
Massimo has been looking at lots of replacement coaches for the last two weeks.
Roster won't be around much longer as clearly the players are not wanting to play for him.
I think it's a disgrace as our fans deserve better.

Agree0 Disagree1

03 Oct 2015 17:07:32
Again absolute pants.
When the guy says "a goal at elland rd"
Why do I always get a sinking feeling.
I'm really starting to laugh about it now instead of it ruining my week AGAIN
we really are muck

03 Oct 2015 17:05:27
Uwe must be having a laugh Rosler if you think we will turn a corner of improvement.
Its getting embarrassing now, fortunately I have missed todays game as I am in London for the weekend, I have been to 5 games this season and we haven't won any of them, was beginning to think I was a Jona, thing is we factually aren't very good.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

03 Oct 2015 20:07:43
We could go down playing Rosler's formation. It's what I said from start of season.

Agree0 Disagree0

03 Oct 2015 23:18:58
George your posts are normally bang on. But you said at the start of the season this squad would be coming in around 9th, I think. You never mentioned formation, even though we all new 433 was Roslers thinking.
It has nothing to do with formation, just average to poor performances with one or two good displays. If we get picked off playing 443 just imagine how much worse things could be playing 442.
Anyway my point is the team basically has little direction at the moment but it is early days and things will pick up.
And as for survivor wanting Radebe because he has his badges.
So did Hockaday! Some people talk horseradish

Agree0 Disagree0

03 Oct 2015 23:48:33
No way
I want Radebe as he is the man we need
Nothing to do with badges but you need them to coach

Agree0 Disagree0

Heavy metal football - Ha Ha
Think uwe must consider "the knack" and my Sharona as heavy metal.
Shows next for a free 3pts at Elland Road

We're playing Birmingham, not Real Madrid!how can we possibly have got to this state where we are so bad that teams are guaranteed 3points when they come to E.R.?

You can do you homework on the other team until the cows come home, but if your players are shite and can hit a barn door for a yard away then it all just sees a pointless waste of time!

Uwe is 100% sure Leeds have done their homework and are ready for brum
Good news
I'm sure we will win.

Not what I had in mind but. UWE are the man?!

Hate to think what the score would be if they hadn't done their homework.

If wood is not fit I would like to see Erwin and Antilucy up front, I would rest Dallas and give Buckley a start and Bellucci dropped for Coops 4-4-2 let's get our first win at ER since beginning of March MOT

Dallas playing well but needs a rest I reckon

Just read the article where Cellino says he'd buy back Elland Road before buying out GFH.
Surely if we get back into the Premier League then the value of GFHs shares would go up and it would cost him more, whereas the price of the stadium wouldn't. (Or am I being too simplistic?)
On a related point, who actually owns Elland Road?
3-2 win today. Mowatt to get his first goal of the season & then go on a scoring spree!

Believable1 Unbelievable0

03 Oct 2015 15:30:30
It makes sense. GFH are greedy. He knows that. Will cost either way. Maybe best for Cellino if PL status was already there.

As to who owns ER, you may have to ask Papa Smurf to find out.

Agree0 Disagree0

03 Oct 2015 23:30:50
Rubbish
ER was sold by Krasner and co before the nasty man.

03 Oct 2015 04:07:15
Think silv is a constant worry. He has flapped every single game I've seen. About 5 so far. I would def drop him. And dg you are right. Why hasn't practice improved him. He may also be making the back 4 nervous and off there game. Good shot stopper yes. But useless at crosses and you tend to get more crosses than good solid shots on target per game. So bench for me!
