So Phillips off to Man City, clubs apparently agreed 42M deal, apparently fans on Twitter not happy but I say take it, Bielsa taken him to another level but honestly think we've seen the best of him. defensive midfielder near the top of the tackle stats and now appearing to be injury prone too. Thoughts?

Completely agree, he’s been a great servant but think he’s peaked and slightly overrated by some of our fans. We’ve got a good fee and it could significantly improve the squad. Only disappointment is that McAtee isn’t the swap player, never heard of this Gyabi.


2.) 24 Jun 2022 19:37:17
Couldn’t agree anymore. Wasn’t the player he was when he returned from injury. The Marcelo factor has been lost on him I feel. Good deal for both clubs and best wishes and good luck. Onwards and upwards. MOT. ?⚽️.

Chris wood £27mill, buendia £34mill, it's a Leeds thing, probably a bit shallow to say oh, Bielsa got the best out of him and he's now too old to improve .


4.) 24 Jun 2022 21:21:46
Good luck to Philips sign mohamed camara fill the gap no problem great player.


5.) 24 Jun 2022 21:51:00
Chris mate, those prices, for those people, make it all the more shocking. I have however read now that the price is likely to be more like £55m, which is closer to the mark. I hope Kal continues to flourish, and enjoys a fantastic World Cup.


6.) 24 Jun 2022 22:52:06
Wood 27 mill? You sure?


7.) 24 Jun 2022 23:00:05
That's my. point Brighty
Wood can't score goals as a 9 yet went for 27 .

It's a fark-ing joke is this deal.

We probs got Poveda Mk2 for 5 .


8.) 24 Jun 2022 23:41:36
Sorry yes your right Corky 25, either way huge money for a very average lad.

Nketiah a done deal, great signing. in Nigeria he's known as the Gazelle! Happy days.

Great signing provided he finds his feet quickly. A real talent who knows where the onion bag is.

Phil Parkinson Next on the radar. peoples thoughts? Excellent manager and coach, done consistently well with City and Bolton promoted first shot. Plotted Chelseas downfall in FA cup and some good results against premier opposition. Worth a shot?

borneoboy

1.) 08 Jun 2017 16:26:04
Yeah who cares. Right now anyone proven with a good record will please me. I just want to a real some answers and start getting a team and a pre-season put together. Killing me the unknown, hopefully the end of the week will see us more informed.


2.) 09 Jun 2017 12:58:10
worth a punt i guess but as yet no championship experience. i would give him a go, however.


3.) 10 Jun 2017 01:11:15
Phil Parkinson for me.


4.) 10 Jun 2017 10:53:16
Lived in Colchester most of my life and was a season ticket holder through the parky era, really top bloke, decent manager with an eye for a bargain (even in league 1) . Took a very mediocre Colchester side to 7th in the championship. He's a straight talker too. I think he would suit us very well. One thing is certain though, we need to give him a chance if he is appointed and not boo the minute things go against us.

Official Leeds website saying Austin not for sale and will not leave upto or beyond transfer deadline.

This is my first posting. Had this one on very good authority from Liverpool FC employee that its signed and sealed that Andre Wisdom (Leeds born) joining long term in January, out of favour at Liverpool after signing extended contract in Jan 2013, Good central defender, left / right back. Young player on fringe of England u21.

borneoboy

1.) Fringe of u21? Pretty sure he's captain :/


2.) How is he on the fringe when he's the captain?


3.) Ha yeah good call not that good authority

Jesus, 11 goals in 2 games. How is Aaronsen keeping his place absolutely woeful and about as much steel as chocolate teacup. Get Wober cooper and koch on together need to bloody tighten up. Thank god no Milosovic next game. Tighten that bloody defence Gnonto, Sinisterra always capable of breakaway goals. folorn picture of the the three wise monkeys in stand. How long have they had to sort this out. tooany Americans equals Mickey Mouse football.

I think I'm going to have to have a break from Leeds United after tonight and last weekend. it's really broken my resolve and really making me feel very low.

This is not an enjoyable or sane way to live your life feeling miserable most weeks. It's crazy.

If we manage to somehow dig ourselves out of this which I'm not very hopeful of now but with Wober back at least and surely Cooper must return to install some leadership then if the defence is stronger that should improve things.

And please Gracia, stop playing Aaronson and add some flipping steel to the midfield, We need 3 tough midfielders there.

Also Gnonto all day long must start and I don't know maybe Rodrigo and someone else pick a name out the hat but definitely not Aeronson.

We are still above the bottom 3 which is a slight blessing and if and it seems hilarious to even suggest we're capable of getting another win but if we can beat Leicester that may be what is needed to install the confidence back in everyone.

Oh and park 3 buses next week at Fulham and get something, I'd even consider sacking Gracia and getting big Sam in. That's how bad it has got.

I may feel different next Saturday, who knows but tonight I despise the fact I gave my heart and soul to following Leeds United all those years ago in the 70's.

Clearly I must have been a right barstool in a previous life for God to punish me like this.


2.) 17 Apr 2023 23:50:28
Completely agree Macc, supporting this club brings nothing but anger and anxiety these days, hence why I’m still awake and fuming! It’s just not worth it anymore, football in general is not what it used to be and Leeds United are definitely not! Bunch of foreign dossers who don’t give a rats ass!
I’m signing out now for the rest of the season. Got a baby due mid May so don’t want this negativity and anger festering around him and my wife. Poor thing avoids me like the plague when Leeds are playing.


3.) 18 Apr 2023 06:39:40
Congratulations Rambo, I also have a baby due mid May! 13th is our due date. Is he your first?

We never learn, press, press, press, then caught on the counter. Game was there for the taking absolutely bossed them start to finish, but likes of Sinisterra, klich, rocca Geldhardt must be seething when they think we're in with a sniff of 3 points when we can't defend, Llorente an absolute shocker. think I could pick many centre halves out of league one or two that would be better. Cooper back for me, Strijk starting to look an accomplished player. I'm bloody mad.

1.) 03 Sep 2022 17:40:21
The Burnley Centre Backs were there for the taking, as well as Charlie Taylor, but Orta is obsessed with signings from all over Europe. Radz, get rid of this man for God's sake!


2.) 03 Sep 2022 17:50:02
JM Out and go get Brendon Rogers!


3.) 03 Sep 2022 17:50:07
Geldhert? He should be grateful he’s playing at the moment.


4.) 03 Sep 2022 20:24:51
Hook. Shut up. Utter bot pourage.


5.) 03 Sep 2022 20:48:39
Feath — Rasmus will improve, but Ayling is now fit, and actually Drameh wasn’t so bad on that side today either. Koch is a good defender, Firpo may have a better season if he stays fit. Struijk is also decent. Llorente is a real concern, and it seems almost certain he’ll drop out for Coops next game.

The tactics need to be tweaked to ensure we have more cover at the back so we’re not caught out so easily by a simple long ball over our counterpress when we lose the ball in or around the opposition box. With Llorente taken out of the lineup and that simple tweak, the rest of the defenders will probably be up to the job. Simple fact is that Tarkowski and Mee would be every bit as exposed within our current setup, and they’re both slower than Llorente and Koch, and neither of them are error free either.


6.) 03 Sep 2022 21:41:59
Clu without quick defenders our high press is a problem.


7.) 05 Sep 2022 05:43:26
I'm with you on that Bazza, it's not the system of our high press that's the problem its the lack of pace and ability of our defenders to complement the high press, I feel if we could address that it'd work more consistently you need pace at the back to nullify the quick counters in the PL.


 

 

10 Mar 2022 22:07:20
Embarrassing, Ayling and Dallas about the two fit for the shirt, Koch, Firpo, Rodrigo absolutely waste of space. Dressing room and crowd totally lost now. no Philips and Bamford all season and no replacement. ashamed tonight.

borneoboy

1.) 10 Mar 2022 23:09:26
I said it last year. Struijk will cost us. No where near premier league standard. Kloch and llorente too nice and can’t boss any centre forwards. Firpo very poor going forward. can't believe any knowledgeable people at Leeds top table look at our defence and think we can stay up!


 

 

11 Apr 2021 16:21:08
Some interesting points on here and have to agree the referee was appalling yesterday, I've previously heard Mariners anti Leeds comments but yesterday it was almost as if . look at us were a billion pound team, please allow us to play football our way. Never seen so many challenges go against Leeds including ridiculous VAR decisions. Be honest FA have never wanted us back in the big time, points deductions, legal challenges over Cellino, fines, bans for one thing and another. anyway keep plugging away boys . never been so proud. Oh. and please contenscious issue. hope Alioski stays . he's starting to get noticed in Premier League. his pass was sublime for Dallas.

And the +3mins was stretched to almost 8.Yes we celebrated, but not that long.


2.) 11 Apr 2021 17:38:47
Also the foul on Raph and substitution would have added a little extra but not 5 mins more than the alloted time.


3.) 11 Apr 2021 19:36:24
Very good post Borneo 👍
Never been so proud indeed 💜.


4.) 12 Apr 2021 06:43:56
Do we think their goal should have a var check, it looked a tad offside to me. When you think of bam hams knee that time it didn't look any different, but not even checked.


 

 

20 Jan 2021 16:51:09
Come on Leeds fans are we giving Frank lampard a hard time? Karen Carney says he should be given a little bit longer. 🤣🤣🤣🤣.

borneoboy

1.) 20 Jan 2021 17:10:31
maybe frank needs a cove break to win the league. we will have to ask Miss Carney.


2.) 20 Jan 2021 17:18:56
Karen who?

Oh yeah that genius 😉🤪

Let me guess is her latest pearls of wisdom that Frankie will get Chelski Top 4 place IF the country goes into a 3rd lockdown and all football ceases for 6 weeks!

as Chelski have clearly been running on empty ever since their 'big cup final' against Leeds 😃.


3.) 20 Jan 2021 17:34:58
Sky sports having the audacity to call him “Chelsea’s greatest ever player”. wtf do those reporters actually do, apart from kiss his butt!? Do they have any idea of history? The fat plum wants wringing out over the next few weeks like a soggy sponge to show him up for what he really is.


4.) 20 Jan 2021 18:25:24
Ha you tell em Brighty.


5.) 20 Jan 2021 18:48:01
It's incredible the esteem some hold him in, 1 thing that is certain, he will never be Chelsea's greatest ever gaffer,

Lets not forget the money we could have paid Hasselbaink would have kept us in the division and not missed out on a champions league spot, instead we then offered stupid money to the likes of seth johnso et all and where did we go after that, an opportunity was missed.

Vydra no gamble wanted him a couple of seasons ago, prolific proven goal scorer, be devastating with Saiz.
