Are the reports about Archie Gray going out on loan just paper talk? Or if they are true - should we try get him back for the second half of the season? Could he play a role further forward in midfield yet?

Spuds won’t let him go. Just need to sack useless manager and play gray in his favoured position. Simple.

And I have a feeling that Spuds will part company with this guy by end of season. he talks the talk but.

No no MOTagain pal.
Piroe is our top scorer .
And
We have very few players in our team / squad who score goals.

Piroe hasn't scored since he started since.
Six touches on the ball Vs Bristol
Runs and stops half way
No conviction
No plan
Indecisive near the box
Aims for the goalie not the goal
A kick as powerful as a mouses fart
Piroe is not the man. He has had a season and he still hasn't gelled with Leeds.
I don't doubt he has talent, he just doesn't fit in with us.

He ain't good at most things granted but he is still our top scorer and most natural goalscorer by some distance . (impact sub might be best) .
and that is the most important thing of all
Get a definite upgrade in Jan fine .
but until then scoring goals may wwll be a challenge for this team/ squad esp without Rama and a real CAM made even worse with no topscorer JP.

Baz, Piroe has done his best work as impact sub, scored his best and most important goals this season as an impact sub. When he starts he does little to nothing.
Why is he starting? It's bad for the club, the fans and for Piroe.
Agree on getting a finisher or two in January. The maddening part is, a half decent striker would double in value at Leeds, as he would be knocking them in for fun.

Piroe has played his best football for us when he's A. Come off the bench in games we are already winning. B. Has then played at 10. C. Whilst Joseph was still still on the pitch playing at 9.
Pretty interesting when you see what kinda game state he performs in as opposed to him starting in a lone 9 role.
He's our best finisher and ball striker, but he's just not a good lone 9.
Per @AIILeedsArentWe (twitter)
"Piroe's last 6 games as a starter:
vs Bristol (70mins) :
0.01 xG
0.02 xA
vs Watford (72mins) :
0.37 xG
0.02 xA
vs Sheff Utd (89mins) :
0.01 xG
0.03 xA
vs Sunderland (77mins)
0.72 xG
0.06 xA
vs West Brom (64mins)
0.33 xG
0.00 xA
vs Boro (90mins)
0.23 xG
0.17 xA
Furthermore
Joseph is superior to Piroe in stats p90 for:
- Shot Accuracy
- Shots p90
- xA
- Pass Accuracy
- Successful Dribbles
- Successful Tackles
- Aerial Duels Won
and that’s maintained over 200+ minutes more played too. He gets the best out of others around him. "
As a team we perform much better when Piroe is not starting.

A good post (as ever ) Dill.
One definitely could counter that Leeds best 2 performances were when Piroe also started
1) away Sunderland ( spoilt by Mes . Piroe very good)
2) home Sheff. U Piroe good
And our one defeat when MJ started vs Burnley
Bottom line though is that we need a better CF.

ForbPiroe scoring doesn't always equal him having a good game. Don't get me wrong, he's done what we wanted by scoring, but he offers so little in our out of possession work and his in possession stuff isn't very good either. Puts a lot of pressure on us when there's not outlet or we can't press as effectively from the front. Nothing sticks. Heading duels he wins zero and barely applies much pressure in them. All little things which make the game harder for us.
Feel like when Piroe starts he generally has one of two games. He scores but does little else to help the team with his auxiliary play or he doesn't score and also doesn't help the team with his auxiliaries.
Right now he isn't scoring and he falls into the latter. There's no reason to start him if he's not scoring consistently.

He was gracious on the surface and I fully admit Wilder would have been dammed if he did and damned if he didn’t praise us after that win.
But the praise still had some backhanded comments like “they should have gone up last year” and “their own sporting director confirmed Leeds pay the largest wages in the division”
Cannot stand the bloke, just in case that wasn’t clear.
