Sammy Siaz our own little SPITFIRE allegedly! πŸ˜‚ A bit of sour grapes there Mr Brown I think, he said it's not sporting, that's rich coming from him! Joking aside we are two games in, and won two, early days I know but we haven't even had time to gel yet, imagine when we do! This time last season, a 3-0 loss to QPR and a very lucky win with a major struggle against Accrington I think it was, as the song goes "those days are gone my friend" Superb performance 10/10 TC and loads of credit to Radz.

Good job Mr Brown wasn't removed every time he upset the opposition

Agree2 Disagree0

Think there might be repercussions for the alleged spitting incident. Depends if Brown wants to make a formal complaint. But, when it's a choice between Hernandez or Saiz, I think we'll be ok.

Just to lighten the mood even further Anyone noticed how we are " linked " with a player then boro step in as also "linked" I wonder if TC/victor/radz are deliberately leaking the duffers so GM and co leap in with their chequebook. Whilst we're quietly working away on summat better . Just waiting for Steve Evans to announce he recommended absolutely all of these players in his time at Leeds

Not to put a damper on things. Spitting being mentioned. Probably be thrown out of cup and 15 points deducted.

I know people will say it's "only Port Vale" but we blew them away for 90 mins and it could have been a bigger score. Last year we'd have won 1-0 and put ten men behind the ball.

Or lost to the pie eating non league team 1-0 without a sniff of a goal . The dept of the squad and the attacking intent is a joy to behold

Just got back from Elland Road, WOW, a lot of positives from tonight. We have strength in depth this year and we can produce some really exciting attacking football. Saiz looks like a real game changer, energy, skill and goals. I love Alioski, strong, enthusiastic, hardeirker with skill who scares defenders.

Dallas, looks really good, full of energy and tonight he combined really well with BJ who fitted in really quickly and well. Word for Connor Shaugnessy as well, he is making the most of his opportunity and to me looks like his future could be more Centre back than midfield, especially in this squad.

Sacko, I think needs some help, he looks totally out of confidence, perhaps he needs some loan time to try and get some spark back . With Dallas, Alioski and Roofe, he is going to be bench warming or less. But the rest looks and feels good, we have options, we clearly are looking to play and we look exciting and dangerous. Only shame of the night was I had 5-1 as the result! Well Done Lads.

Goes without saying . going forward we have strength in depth that we haven't had in years. Once beradi and Pennington fit. Do we really need anymore in. I'm so Looking forward to Saturday to see what team TC puts out as a few put their own case out tonight to start on Saturday.

Alioski looks great. Saiz in behind wood and it will be goals galore. TC certainly has a headache for team selection. A good one for a change. Super Sammy Saiz, brilliant start to his Leeds career. βš½οΈβš½οΈβš½οΈπŸ‘πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ

Really need to start doing more phys - I am knackered - can't remember the last time I celebrated 4 goals - used to it being spread across 4 games. 7 goals in two games - let's hope we can keep up the scoring and keep em out at the other end. Looking good in most parts. MOT - positively positive whatπŸ‘πŸ˜ƒ

WTF! We are not used to this, we usually struggle to finish teams off, I'm in dreamland, maybe it's only Port Vale but we still had trouble with the smaller clubs in the past! Do we really need another striker? Bolton 3 goals Port Vale 4 goals and 5 goals Preston? Fanbloodytastic! MOT

Question. Who was the last person to score a hat trick on their Leeds debut? I think it was the great Carl Shutt

Believable1 Unbelievable0

10 Aug 2017 11:47:06
LIG You are correct and I believe up until tonight was the only LUFC player to do this. Last time it happened (Shutt) we won the old 2nd Division.

23 shots in one game. More than we had in a month last season. Saiz, Alioski both going to be gems. Ekuban decent start. This is going to be good, i can feel it and not a recognised centre back in the squad.

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Aug 2017 22:09:13
Alioski looks a beast too, unplayable at times, Wood should have a lot of the pressure lifted this year.

Wow. Only listened to commentary but sounds like we've got some exciting watching coming up. Would love to hear from those that went to the game. I'll be there on Saturday:)

Really interesting to here how all our new players perform this evening. Tricky fixtures these games though. Just noted Colchester battering Villa but 1-2 down at half time. Just noting for the record that for myself team/individual performances are of most interest at this stage. Much rather beat Preston than Vale. Both being in the idealπŸ‘

Lucas I forgo the about him about 10 games before the end of last season. just read it on news now. thought it was an amusing tit bit. If that's your view you can't really mention any other past player so rom coaches! oh wait, isn't you avatar a past player? hmmmm!

Agree1 Disagree2

09 Aug 2017 21:44:48
yer right Lucas. But I'm still going to enjoy every defeat boro endure, because he thought he, and they, are bigger than Leeds United.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2017 22:36:26
Well said Lucas. Personally i was more than happy with Monks tenure. He gave us hope for the first time in years but unfortunately things went tits up at end of season. Some folk seem to be obsessed with the man long after he's left and i can't for the life of me understand why. Maybe they believe what they say is a positive but just like last season its a negative and does the club no good. Monk left because he wasnt happy with a general manager calling the shots. We can

Green out " injured" tonight! Well Felix gets another game, which I think is good and will help him settle. Green is obviously unhappy having to fight for his place so best he goes and Felix can grow in confidence. Looks like we are going to see a lot of changes tonight, looking forward to seeing more of Sainz and Ekuban and looks like we've a good chance of a BJ!

Think Bartley will be back to square one with Swansea but a sub with a fatter bank account and a new contract. Will play cup games and cover with suspensions.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

09 Aug 2017 19:11:38
I think Kyle would be the first to thank Leeds United FC and its supporters in ensuring that Swansea realise that they have a class act on their books. Which has resulted in Kyle receiving a long and lucrative new contract. He owes us all a big drink! Good luck to him.

Agree2 Disagree0

09 Aug 2017 17:47:42
Now Bartley has signed a new contract with Swans, we can finally put that rumour to bed. Well, at least he has one good year playing 46 games and captaining his team on his CV. Not much else though! On the plus side, I'm glad he hasn't gone to join snake and co. MM

I'm just wondering how many points Shaun is going to deduct from us when he does score and we are on the pitch.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2017 14:37:40
He will end up being a Leeds legend, he said he loves it here and his wife loves the city too. Praises the support and conducts hiself on the pitch like a warrior and off it like a gentleman. TOP MAN

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2017 17:22:43
LIG He's off pondering his own incredible football knowledge as at the beginning of last season he predicted a bad season for Brighton thinking they were "pony". Now he must be thinking his football knowledge is on a par only with the sporting gods themselves as AR, soon to be heralded as one of our finest ever owners, wants to model our future success based on the Seagulls.

ashley barnes, burnley. loan with a view to permanent would be a great sign on intention. burnley signed a few so reduced game time probable for him. he would relish playing infront of our commited fans based on his style of play.

Can't see it Leeds1919, they are selling Andre grey to Watford so they will need him I guess. Unless they already have greys replacement lined up.

09 Aug 2017 06:10:57
rumour that ashley barnes unsettled at burnley. they have brought in a few and he hasn't played much pre-season. Would take him in a flash, same attitude and desire brought by pontus and berardi. promoted from this league twice and played fair amount of prem games last year. loan with a view anyone?

Predicted 11 for tomorrow: Green, Anita, Ayling, Cooper, BJ, vieira, Brid, Sacko, Saiz, Dallas, Wood. Thoughts? Preston game in mind here so quality and fresh legs are considered

Believable0 Unbelievable0

09 Aug 2017 03:13:44
My 11 would be. Green. Ayling, cooper, shaunaghsey, Anita, Dallas, viera, klich, brid, saiz, wood . or TC could change all 11 from Bolton game. Either way. A win is all we want. MOT πŸ‘βš½οΈπŸ˜ƒ

09 Aug 2017 03:18:27
I wouldn't play brid or sacko. they've only played 1 game. can't see them needing a rest yet. Preston should be easier than vale.

Agree1 Disagree1

09 Aug 2017 07:17:43
Team vs Port Vale, I would keep Felix the Cat in goal to give him another game and to help him settle in the side. Defence, BJ and Anita, Cooper and Shaunessy, rest and protect Ayling. Midfield, Sacko and Dallas, Saiz, Okane and Viera, striker, Ekuban, a chance for a longer run out.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2017 07:46:13
Preston should be easier than Vale ? What a load of nonsense Ausman

Agree2 Disagree0

09 Aug 2017 08:55:50
Id be tempted to play Ekuban as well to help him settle in to the team. How about Ant from the bench? maybe a different formation with Ekuban and Ant up front and Roofe in the hole just behind?

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2017 10:24:10
would like to see wood on bench as super sub that way we can keep him until Preston . Green O'Sha, Anita, saiz, dallas, Viera, brid, klith, eub, Cooper, and Cam to start . Hopefully we can rest a few players, let's face if they can not beat Vale then there not going to be much use to us the rest of the season.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2017 11:00:00
Whatever the team is, I hope the Vale manager gets a good reception.

Anybody know if it's going to be shown anywhere? Obviously it's not on Sky Sports or BT.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2017 11:55:59
I'd put Ayling in at centre, Anita on the right and the new kid Bjay on the left. Shaugnessy is a big lad but, they'd be looking to put him under pressure.

Green, Anita, Rey/O'Connor, Cooper, Borthwick-Jackson, Vieira, Klich, Dallas, Saiz, Sacko (rubbish the other night, hopefully a bit of game time will sort him) , Ekuban. Would also like to see one of Siddiki or Temenuzhkov on the bench and maybe given a run out if we are a couple of goals to the good.
