From despondency on Saturday night I return to half glass full mode. We looked really solid at the back on Saturday and that's a great base to play from. the only scored from a 25 yarder. It happens. Its a fairly new team and Monk is still finding out about the players. However I think he needs 6 points from next 3 games minimum. I believe he needs to change the keeper and look at a new striking combination. Green is no better than Silvestre and he at least gives us some height and is a better shot stopper. Wood doesn't cut it for me, and makes our play slow ponderous and predictable (think long ball) . I would play Antonnsen with Hernanadez just behind in a free role, 4-5-1. with Sacko and either Dallas or Roofe for width and pace. PACE we need desperately! Midfield three of Bridcutt, Okane and Viera. Maybe put one of our young strikers on the bench with pace and ambition! Keep the faith MOT.

Salopjeff, agree with 4-2-3-1 but with the players you have listed we would have 12 on the pitch. Might give us a chance to win the game 😬.

ah yes too early but you get my drift, no wood, no green, hernandez in free role
Silvestre
Ayling, Bartley, Jannoen Taylor
Sacko, okane, bridcutt, Dallas or roofe,
Hernandez and Antonnsen.

Best window for a while. We have kept all our young guns! Well done Team Massimo! MOT
1.) Yes jeff
Kept on to the star youngsters. Norris leaves. Bamba arrives. Plus another couple of big uns. Billy Sharp refuses to go and is itching to be given the chance to poach a few more. Likewise Rudy wanting to go nowhere.
In the circumstances, I'd say pretty damn good! I'm well pleased.
Seems to me we now have a squad of players who actually want to play for Redders and the club, and not for just their wage packets. And an owner who (despite his many, many failings) - and yes I know he's 'not technically in control at the moment', actually cares more about Leeds United than lining his pockets. Doubt that's happened before in my 50 years of supporting them. Now the tricky bit - improving enough so they want to stay next season. That ain't going to be easy
2.) I agree speedy. need to finish above midway in table though and near to play offs as possible. It will be better for the youngsters development to stay for another season in my opinion.
Byram is the most risky as could possibly do a job in premier league. Taylor we definitely need to keep and Cooper. Good defenders are hard to come by. Bamba will def sign if he does well. Cook & Mowatt will want to stay but premier league may call.
But we shouldn't underestimate the effect of a winning mentality and squad camaraderie.
Whatever will be will be . but these youngsters would all command good fees so, the future is bright. or brighter MOT

Cellino loses his appeal!!. what next for our club!

You can't stop any player going to the premier league. great talent and he will do well and one day I hope we can buy him back. Future England international.
Think its cheap but the add ons should be considered as good buisness.

really! I think that level of detail and information would be confidential and kept to boardroom #justsaying.

so just over half. but also it can be said Leeds best managers in his tenure have been British.
