Joke time šŸ˜
A young man walks up and sits down at the bar.
"What can I get you? " the bartender inquires.
"I want 6 shots of Jagermeister, " responds the young man.
"6 shots?!? Are you celebrating something? "
"Yeah, my first blowjob. "
"Well, in that case, let me give you a 7th on the house. "
"No offense, sir.
But if 6 shots won't get rid of the taste, nothing will. ".

Has Orta been good or not?
Pretty ok imo. Ok a few duffs but when you're asked to buy in primark you ain't going to get Ted Baker. I'm pretty sure he had a budget of buying players therefore the likes of Cibicki Ekuban didn't work out but he has his finger on the pulse of young lads. Again not all will work out but even if one in six do we're doing alright.
Basically I'm saying that not too long ago Victor Orta was the devil reincarted who didn't have a clue.
We really are in a good place even if we don't go up this season. But we will. MOT.

If youā€™ve watched ā€œ leading Leedsā€ on sky he comes across as a guy that really cares

Youā€™re right, not every transfer comes off

Seems he was right about Klich ;-)

Some gems amongst the u23s, some will be sold on to raise funds ( Chelsea do the same)

He was quickly made the scapegoat last year but under Bielsa the same players are playing up a level

As others have said, we need to scale the ā€˜wall. Thatā€™s another test of where we are

Also. that Jack Clarke, what a talent.

Interesting to read Steve Morison's comments before the Millscum game next week. I appreciate it's a tongue in cheek remark about playing like Zlatan, especially as he's about as prolific as Billy Paynter these days, but if he does manage to roll back the years and score in what is undoubtedly his and his teams cup final (God knows why) wouldn't you be really p**sed off as a fan of the pikey, Turk loving, Jeremy Kyle appearing, interbred Sarf Landan excuse of a football team? I mean if (lol) Morison can play like Zlatan for one game a season, why can't he do it on a regular basis? If he scores and they beat us, Turk shirts with Mozza on the back will go through the roof and he'll be awarded the player of the season one month into the season but if I were one of their interbred fans, I'd feel slightly duped, wouldn't you?

MM.

Morison is a disgrace. He gets himself up for the game against us because he believes that he was hard done by in a Leeds shirt. Fact of the matter, it is the supporters who had to endure his lacklustre performances for Leeds who should feel hard done by.

How good are the U23ā€™s to watch at present, coaching definitely changed both culture and style of play. Loved Clarkeā€™s goal for the technical ability but actually enjoyed Nicells more in that it started from our keeper and following a number of crisp purposeful passes Nicell struck a great finish. Whilst I appreciate anyone stepping up to the championship will have to cope with the sheer physicality they will face. These players are technically gifted, have a sound understanding of the Bielsa/ Corberan mindset and our CLUB looks far better than I can remember.

Agree Class and there were some newer names in that team that had great games, Gotts and Casey, locals I think. Leif Davies from Morecambe looked good again and Diaz had a good game as captain and centre back, useful. The style of the club is running through the club.

Yesterday they were playing a flexible defensive system of back 5 that became a back 3 with all the 5 moving about the field a lot and you could see the players covering if 1 went forward. Very impressive.

gotts is local lad and very promising I believe from what I have read and heard and expecting him in 1st team soon.

we have always had a good academy and always brought through great players even in league one. but looks like the new set up is on another level!

Should also add that the under 23s are top of the league, unbeaten, 4 wins out of 5!

News of shipping out 4 U23s then days later U23s win 4-0. Times are good. Just a question of how many will burst thro to first team this year.

Think the coaches have done an excellent job. Nicell has improved tremendously and everyone on the team knows their job. Even the guys who came in from the first team gave 100%, and believe me that's not always happened in the past. Dalby, Edmondson, Clarke, Stevens, great front line and if we can keep them all will save millions in the future. Gott and Davis excellent. Diaz improving every game. Two talented keepers in Miziak and Huffer. Add some of the loanees to the mix and our squad looks stronger than most people think. let's not forget players like Taylor who we all praising last season who can't get a game. Yes all young but sure if used sparingly can help the first team. Onwards and upwards.

Must add i think the biggest credit should go to Bielsa who has transformed the footballing side of the club. His philosophy and style of play is evident right through the club even the U16s are playing Bielsaball. Shows what a top coach can bring to the club and what we have been lacking.

Great positive posts! Really agree about the strength in depth. Obviously the step up for these boys is a real challenge but often, you donā€™t know until you give them a chance. Thatā€™s why the solution all the time isnā€™t buying new players in at first team level. Buy more in at junior level mix them with home grown and then select the best. I echo the comments about the first teamers as well, my respect for Harrison, Baker and Zbamford really grow yesterday, Friday afternoon at Elland Road, few hundred people, a bit nippy, but worked so hard and set a great example and great opportunity for the lads!

Other bonus about going to the the under 23s, is that there were a few attractive middle aged women around then I realized they were the players Mums!

What are the views on Orta these days?

Agree0 Disagree0

08 Sep 2018 17:04:35
Orta, like lots of other people, makes mistakes and tries to learn from them. Really isnā€™t in his own interests to bring in crap time and time again. I think a lot of the time we like everything to be black and white, heā€™s rubbish and heā€™s fantastic, whereas often itā€™s just in between somewhere!

Agree0 Disagree0

08 Sep 2018 17:08:26
Orta the enigma. Obviously a lot of talent in academy and first team. Think its thanks to our present coaching system for the improvement. Think we could have lost a few under the radar if Bielsa had not arrived. He identified the ones he thought could do a job. Think some of us were doubting Orta when young ones were coming in by the bus load. Radz himself has said we have too many which begs the question why did we bring in so many, was it a hit or miss thing, playing percentages, who knows. Would like to think he knew what he was doing.

Just a case of when and how with him, looks really comfortable on the wing but almost seems a waste if he hasnā€™t got the ball. Takes people on for fun, gets to the line and crosses but can also go central and cause havoc. Still like him to bulk up a bit more for the physical challenge of the championship. Assuming we release Harrison next year he should be looking to take his place in the squad, he seems to be more comfortable on the right but was playing on the left as well.

Of course promotion could change plans for some of these kids with an even bigger jump up and pressure for us to buy lots of new players.

You're right Gilesy, he's knocking at the door big time. Seems effortless for him. Impressed with Jordan Stevens too. The young lads all looking very impressive and bodes well for the long term future.
