Use our rumours form to send us leeds transfer rumours.

29 Feb 2016 23:37:39
That's got to have been the worst yet this season. No goal scorer and no defence. Only Cook, Coyle, and Taylor can hold their heads up after that shambolic performance- panto season is supposed to be over. Bamba and Cooper were dreadful, Wootton was Wootton, and Doukara never offered anything. I don't really blame Evans, after all you can't make a silk purse out of a pig's ear. I hope we're still in this league at the end of the season but we definitely need two strong centre halves who know how to defend.

You know we got big problems when another professional player nothing to do with the game risks criticism by singling out our poorest performer on Twitter.

I certainly hope MC doesn't fire SE. It's not his fault. Bamba does not want to play for us. My guess is he hasn't all season. Other players feel the same way. Key task now is acquire enough points to escape the drop into League One. Who'd have thought our immediate future now rests on the shoulders of Chris Wood? Only he can get the goals we need.

Unless MC is on some worped mission to run the club into the ground (or into league 1) then it is his responsibility to belt-up and get it sorted. invest properly or let someone else do it.

I have been attending Leeds' matches for forty years. I would struggle to remember a more inept and clueless performance. If we had lost to a team that played particularly well I could have some sympathty, but it was in my view a very ordinary Brighton team that we made look worldclass!

Believable3 Unbelievable0

29 Feb 2016 23:14:35
Can only agree the worst thing was that Brighton did look very ordinary and we should never have been 4-0 down. Cannot understand the logic of Coyle starting at right wing. He may have played there before but all his football recently has been at right back he or Beradi should have started there and Carayol on the right wing. Defence far too slow and Silvestri must come for those corners, the ball ended up in our six yard box yet no challenge from the keeper.

Somehow we need a mass clear out problem is most are still under contract this summer, I would only keep Taylor, Cook, Mowatt, Coyle, Bridcutt and Dallas the rest can go we have no pace at all in the side that must be a priority for whoever is manager, I feel sorry for my Two lads who I have inflicted this bunch on over the last few years, at least I saw some glory, they have only seen a joke club, managed and controlled by clowns. It really is embarrassing to be a Leeds fan at the moment.

01 Mar 2016 04:36:56
We have pace though mark but some reason he doesn't play them n I agree should of played coyle rb and carayol.

29 Feb 2016 22:39:29
Well, we can spin it any which way we like boys, but that was embarrassing shyte. The reason the Revie era team were so successful was that they all had fire in their bellies. most of this lot have a barely smouldering ember. The youngsters were the best of the bunch - Bamba, Wootton etc were dire. Evans must be nervous after that shambolic display.

I know it's been mentioned earlier but I feel like repeating it.
Why the hell should Cook, Taylor and Mowatt stay. Cellino won't pay big wages for either coach or players, which means, unless we're very lucky we will keep getting second rate coaches and players.
As young players they will see that as a lack of ambition (and so will their agents) .
I am going to have a big bet that all three of them will leave this summer. (And who could really blame them) .

Everything seemed to be going OK until the first goal went in. The defending is dreadful. What the hell was Bamba doing for the second goal. Kids stuff. Hopefully the players will re-pay the 1522 fans that travelled to see that garbage. We huffed and puffed with no end product. You cannot blame Doukara the guy was on his own. We have a kid in the under 21's banging goals in. Give him a go. Man Utd played Rashford and he has scored 4 goals in 2 games.

We are now looking over our shoulder. 9 points above relegation zone.

I think SE will be gone by the w/ e. Sad really as the guy is passionate but the players are not good enough.

Bets on the next mug to take the hot seat?

Cork, agreed - he kept running. Just wished he pulled the trigger on a couple of occasions instead of passing. Thought most of the young uns at least tried.

don't blame Ray Tinkler, he was unsighted by two other West Brom players who were also offside when the first goal went in.

Oh and by the way woo ton, when are you going to get the message, he simply isn't good enough. and when did Lewis Coyle become a midfielder all of a sudden?
Did you confuse him with Sam Byram?! We sold him, remember!

Overwhelming arrogance of SE and possibly MC coming out with talk about planning for a prem push when we are by no means safe in this league.

Dodgy penalty. Deflected goal. Offside goal.
What else can go wrong? Plenty i'd say.
Before pen I thought we were edging it, although with not much happening up front.
Least we should expect is a proper go in 2nd half.
And let's not blame evans or MC.

I get to watch quite a few Brighton games through a kindly mate. The majority of their goals are created by the two very good wingers with a choice from Lua Lua, Knockhart and Murphy they have very skill full very quick players.

Think there will be goals tonight but we need to play Taylor, Coyle, Beradi if Wooton returns our chances will halve.

All the people I normally sit with say the Leeds game is always the best game at the Amex due to the amazing atmosphere generated by our fantastic travelling support. MOT If Wooton dropped going for 3-2 πŸ˜ƒ.
