Was Southgate at the same match, his BS is almost on a level with Brenty.

25 Jun 2024 21:52:46
Well that's nearly 2 hours of my life I won't get back.

Easy way to fix the England squad, you get them together and have them audition, one at a time, to belt out God, save our gracious King. If they can't, or won't, they're off the team.

We have the talent, not the passion. The squad should be people who WANT to play for England, not those that HAVE to.

25 Jun 2024 21:49:42
The Tories have got more chance of winning the forthcoming election than England have of winning the Euros!

25 Jun 2024 21:37:43
Leeds 3rd kit is disgraceful, yellow with loads of smileys over it, reminds me of the 90s and parties.

25 Jun 2024 20:28:45
Glad to see we are playing a different game. tonight gives me chance to watch my paint dry.

25 Jun 2024 20:49:18
Thanks for the reminder Oldbri - I think I'll start sanding down the windows, they need freshening up (bit like Southgate's game plans)

Far, far, far prefer watching the England Cricket Team . positive, attractive, risk taking, winning BazBall 💪

England football urgently needs

1) a new progressive positive energised coach and

2) proud energised players that frigging want to work to win for England.

Dull viewing with no cohesion in the team.
In defense of Gareth Schoolgates the Serbian manager trapped him; he played four up front knowing GS couldn't play a full line of defense after the stick he has taken. He boxed GS in.

Still a crap game.

I’m with you Baz; boring, pedestrian, I dare say cowardly football. No one (until Palmer came on) was prepared to take their man on. Not sure it’s Southgate either. I’m not sure the point of Saka or Trippier…they call for the ball, hold it, wait for the defenders to get back in position, then pass it back to where it came from. More bothered about passing accuracy stats than actually doing what they’re supposed to do.

…. I hope now there's some real jeopardy they turn up and play properly.

25 Jun 2024 23:03:35
I think the players want to win but we have truly terrible tactics and a very unbalanced team.

25 Jun 2024 15:23:51
As per BBC article,

Leeds fans have been told not to travel to Germany, as all friendlies will be taking place behind closed doors, due to circumstances outside of the Club's control. Leeds have requested streaming of matches so fans can watch and are awaiting a reply.

Any sensible guesses as to why this has occurred? Are the German/ Leeds squad trying out players that they want to keep under wraps? New tactics perhaps?

{Ed001's Note - is it because of the Euros?}

25 Jun 2024 16:00:37
It says the German police are on leave after the Euros, so they don't have the numbers to police the grounds.

25 Jun 2024 17:51:04
What if we write a letter and promise to behave.

Dillinger has submitted an article entitled, Article On KRC Genk's Mark McKenzie

23 Jun 2024 15:45:43
Excellent post as always Dil and yet another player I was not aware of so thanks for the info and keep them coming please.

23 Jun 2024 16:20:25
Impressed as ever Dill

I hope you are sending your researched suggestions to LUFC recruitment Mr Hammond and Mr Steinson ;

worthwhile at least in doing so.

23 Jun 2024 18:04:20
Dill Your usual excellence. There's a player I've been looking at, young CF who I think would be great for us. Believe Inter are or were interested. May I supply you with the name? Perhaps you can tell me what you think or write a piece on him? Don't think it's a name you've covered before.

23 Jun 2024 18:34:16
Cheers, chaps. Yh definitely mate, send the name over and I'll take a look at him 👍.

23 Jun 2024 20:53:04
George Ilenikhena.

23 Jun 2024 22:29:01
He's on my "breakout players 2024" list I made on my phone a few weeks back, haha. I've made a list every year for the past few seasons of players I'll track through the upcoming season. I'll be covering him, for sure. Will try get something out this summer 👌.

Great shout btw.

24 Jun 2024 19:41:24
Beautifully written as always Dill. excellent find.

What are the chances of Kalvin Phillips returning to Leeds?
He didn't leave on bad terms, has been shafted at man city, lost his England place and is now wondering the premier league.

We could afford him, they want to sell him, he wants to come back.

What's the sticking point?

23 Jun 2024 01:44:35
Wages.

23 Jun 2024 03:52:00
Ability. He’d have to be at his old best to get in 11.

23 Jun 2024 07:28:04
Citeh want £30m for him. That’s a start.

23 Jun 2024 07:48:43
Chances of KP coming back to play for LUFC? Fat and zero


the same level of chance as the Aussies winning the T20 Cricket World Cup. humbled last night by little Afghanistan . there there Aus lmao :)

23 Jun 2024 08:16:04
They want 30 I would offer 15 he damaged goods now .

23 Jun 2024 08:52:38
Do we really want back a player that only managed 2 half seasons in his last two full seasons with us and hasn't played regular football since? Don't fancy adding another player who's susceptible to injuries/ fitness issues. Already have enough of those. And 46 games a season is a proper slog with two game a week. He'd literally break.

Move on.

23 Jun 2024 11:58:14
Agree dill. It didn’t work out for him but we got some good dosh for him.

23 Jun 2024 12:18:14
Cashed out at the perfect time, Aus.

24 Jun 2024 19:42:47
We couldn't afford him.
