I feel Bamba has had his day for Leeds. Amazing isn't it when football players put a shift in to earn a contract then their performances from then on are crap. And not captain material for me, nice doesn't do it for me. To be captain for leeds means putting your body on the line and putting in a gritty performance like our Billy.

I've said all along that if we got Bridcutt he should be captain.
And I'm also pleased that Garry is giving Douks a chance. He was on fire right before his 8 game ban. Just hope he has learnt his lesson about his attitude, although he did declare he didn't do anything wrong so let's give him another chance as wood isn't the most mobile of players. Any help we can get up front is welcome by me. Told Garry myself a while back to give Douks a chance and low and behold he listened to a Yorkshire woman. ;-)

Agree Liver maybe Bird or pilot can take the band, SD should be given a chance and rest Wood as he does seem to pick up injuries .
Wood may yet come good .

Agree too. With the addition of Jansson, that gives us 3 solid CBs and Bamba. We just need to bring through a youth player and 5 should be enough for the season. Although, I would love it if we got Luke Moore.

Upfront, I think we should use Roofe, in addition to Douks as alternatives options and as cover for Woody and Antonnson.

It seems that the 4-4-2 is going to be the way forward with e 4-2-3-1 fall back. For the first time in ages I feel we have a balanced squad, although more cover wouldn't go amiss.

Bamba should never play for us again, I'm sorry if this sounds harsh but I agree he played out of his skin to gain a decent contract with the might whites. Now he really is the weak link and strolls around without a care. captain? Don't make me laugh and I also say Billy bremner would be turning in his grave! MOT.

I think it's a little ott to suggest he should never play for us again, I agree he needs to come good again and stop making so many errors but wasn't too long ago we were begging for him to be signed - he did make an impact and helped us out of the relegation slots and helped gain us a mid table finish when we were all but written off. If he can't come good then fair enough and he should go, but never say never in my humble opinion. I know we can't afford to carry anyone but there are a lot of people with very short memories 🙄.

You are right in a limited way but answer me this.

Do you find it purely coincidental that his form took a dip no make that nosedive the minute he signed a contract?

Bridcutt as captain - Yes, said that week after he came in on loan last year.
Bamba gotten rid of - Would like to see how he responds to being dropped first, might do him good to have time out of the first team and without the armband.
Doukara - . time to leave. and it pains me to say, because I championed him for so long. Think he has a lot of potential but no drive. His best runs for the club have been trying to win a contract and then trying not to lose it with a good god damn in between. Sad because he could be class but he has zero passion.

Coops captain for me. From what I can see and comments from players on various sites, Bridcutt is like a captain on the field in any case so I would go with someone else i. e. 2 captains.
