aparantly Brian Mcdermott sees young Zak thompson has a future Leeds United holding midfield player in the mould of David Batty. saw it on a Bury website today. aparantly he's sees him as a midfield enforcer in his words.
maybe the future partnership in leeds midfield could be Thompson and Dawson?
couldnt comment on how good a player Thompson is myself. did anybody follow him closely there?and did he play the holding role there or a more advanced midfield role.

I thought green had done well since he moved to what is obviously his best position, prepared to stick with him, its the creative mf we need.

Agree0 Disagree0

Got a link? I see Zac becoming a forgotten man, sold for cheap and coming back to haunt us later in his career.

What about

Leeds .

Agree0 Disagree0

Yes about Leeds. Really positive stuff from David Haigh about ambassadors, gate numbers, a myriad of things. Good stuff. Not least that the rented goldfish bowl from Peter Ridsdale has gone. Not sure where the goldfish have got to.

Agree0 Disagree0

The goldfish signed for Norwich obv. Duh!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Unfiortunately it's actually the next THREE seasons.

We knew this already as the board said during the takeover process.

I think leeds need a major shake up this summer. I think the following players should go: kenny, peltier, drury, brown, Norris, tonge, Morrison, at the very least. To be replaced with Alex mc carthy, matt mills, Guthrie, Jamie o'hara, sako, Gary Maakay Steven. And either le fondre or johnny Russell.
Starting 11
Gk McCarthy (ashdowm)
Rb byram (Shaun Cummings)
Lb warnock (c) (Charlie Taylor or white)
Cb less (Pearce)
Cb mills (month gimpel)
Dmc Austin (Id punt for Hargreaves adds experience)
Mc o hara (green)
Mc Guthrie (swapping for Dawson at times)
Amr Maakay Steven (dioufy)
Aml sako ( I'd swap for white or poleon)
Cf le fondre/Russell (swapping with Ross)

That's a team of players who would make a great team mix of British and not. And mix of experience and youth. Would be an exciting season.
What you think? Will leeds try something similar.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Stop with all this Russell rubbish! You must be his bird or at least related. don't wanna offend any Jocks BUT who was the last decent player to come down south? Probably Snodgrass or Fletcher.

Agree0 Disagree0

So does that mean all Scottish players are pants then Cork White? Oh yeah Billy Bremner, the Gray brothers, Strachan etc etc. were all rubbish weren't they? What a stupid response!

Agree0 Disagree0

It would be a god team, but the players you suggest to get rid of, some wouldn't be bad squad players, we need a squad not juts an 11.

Also if we did sell the players you listed we wouldn't even get half the moeny would need for your suggested replacements inc. transfer fees/wages

Agree0 Disagree0

I was talking about the current Scottish players. Even the most diehard Jock would see where I am coming from. Its a shame as LEEDS always had some great scottish players over the years. Anyway I was just pointing out that some posters seem obsessed about this Russell geezer! MOT

Agree0 Disagree0

The talent scotland produce is in line with the size of the country

Agree0 Disagree0

There's quite a few players in the SPL that would do a brilliant job in the championship and possibly the Prem.

Got a good feeling that next season we will either get automatic or atleast playoffs Mot. Who agrees?

Funny! I felt like that last season

But I hope your optimisim proves to be well founded. Must add that BMD has impressed me thus far, more inspiring than NW but that's not hard I think Nigel Mansell would beat Warnock in that department.

Agree0 Disagree0

Defo top6 if not top2 depends how much the board gunna bk mcd, watch this space.

Agree0 Disagree0

Depends on our actions in the summer window imo

One simple question to GFH regarding the "President". Why?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Because they still owe him money, maybe?

Can't think of one single other reason why you would give the presidency to anyone who has sold most of our best players and brought the name of Leeds into disrepute with lost lawsuits, etc?

Agree0 Disagree0

It was the only way they could buy the club from bates.
