Leeds banter 5

15 Sep 2026 06:38:48
It's good to know that the club hasn't wasted a very large amount of money that it doesn't even have due to the rules on a striker that we don't need this season.

Calvet Lewin, our free player shutting up all those doubters about his fitness.
It's time that those doubting fans should accept that he is not a injury prone player anymore, which is probably a credit to Farke and his coaching staff getting his training and playing regime well balanced.

Don Goodman is totally right JT got away with it. hope his luck continues,shame we couldn't keep a clean sheet Farley was not a happy man with the defence, BA did well when he come on so let him off.

4 games in. Sensible post opti. And a few posters below making snide comments about other more realist posters. So childish.

15 Sep 2026 11:21:10
Not forgetting just 9 months ago also that Leeds United formally bid £35 million and then £40 million in January window on JSL at Wolves.

So Leeds clearly wanted a striker.and supposedly could afford to spend £40 million in doing so.

It's good to know that that offer was not accepted and the money has been spent more wisely this summer, ie Trafford.
Farke may have not wanted Larsen and trusted in what we have, otherwise they would have invested in a striker this summer, which they didn't.

15 Sep 2026 11:03:07
Why on earth would it be a waste OP?

As he would obviously be a better forward than Nmecha and would come on instead of Nmecha.let's be honest Nmecha isn't great

Anyways fingers crossed DCL stays fit.

Strand Larsen was not worth 50 Mil in my opinion, it would have been a big economic mistake for our club to pay that amount for him and for good reasons we didn't.
Crystal Palace will figure that out at some point.

Did we learn anything from Pistol packin' Pete's Russian roulette gamble and spending money the club didn't have recklessly on players that couldn't win anything ?

Want, want, want at any expense is it ?

Being successful in the Premiership is not about paying huge amounts of money for over valued players, I much prefer this pragmatic and sensible approach to our recruitment.

I only have to look at clubs like Villa and Newcastle who are potentially over spending to gain success but ultimately have to offload their big assets to keep within the financial rules.

Of course that rule is exempt for Chelsea and Man City due to their untouchable mafia status.

What a performance, we battered them, looking very good.
JT was a bit casual a couple times, he has been fantastic though so let him off.
Whole team on it, pity we did not get the clean sheet, my only gripe is didn't see JMB get mins, guess we have to trust in DF
Thought at 4-0 at home was perfect time to introduce him, but he loves BA, I just wanted to see our shiny new player.

15 Sep 2026 09:13:07
Bahoya will get his chance. I reckon putting DJ on was most likely based on the fact that he knows the players, the system and more importantly, his role within that structure.

14 Sep 2026 22:44:41
No team in the history of the EPL has been relegated with 8 points from r games.so Hull are safe and Leeds are Champions League bound.
Up the mighty whites.Leeds are back!!

14 Sep 2026 22:36:32
Only Arsenal (52) , Manchester City (50) , Manchester United (45) and Bournemouth (37) have won more Premier League points in 2026 than Leeds United (35) , with the Whites suffering just a single defeat across their last 13 league games (won six, drawn six) .

Some set of statistics is that, could it be we are all a tad over critical at times?

14 Sep 2026 22:46:22
We're + 6 points versus the same respective fixtures last season.

Over the last 30 matches, we have more points than Chelsea, Villa, Man U, and only 1 point less than Liverpool.

This time last season, folks were waxing lyrical that Farke was officially the worst EPL manager. I think he's proving that he's a very good manager.

14 Sep 2026 22:15:16
Enjoyed that and hopefully that's all of JT's wobbles out of the way

Pity we gave them one back at the end - would have been great for the clean sheet.

MOT.

14 Sep 2026 22:48:09
Great Result hope this shuts up the Whining Farke haters on here!
Up The Whites Down The Pints 🤍💙💛.

15 Sep 2026 11:04:49
Farkey needs to have a word with JT.cut out the dilly dallying on ball. its going to lead to goals conceded.

14 Sep 2026 22:11:35
Good to see a positive reaction to the Chelsea game from the players tonight.
Bogle was immense and Muharemovic was also excellent again.
Good team effort and Farke bang on it with his selection and getting his players right up for this potentially difficult game.

It's a long season but a fantastic start to it, long may it continue.

Get rid of Farke at the end of the season Doh 🤦‍♂️.

14 Sep 2026 22:20:31
Steady on OP. Hold your horses just a tad.Leeds very good in general tonight. and always superb to beat Newcastle.

It's one game.need to back it up by beating Palace at home next week too

And a tough set of October fixtures will be the test.

14 Sep 2026 22:52:01
Baz we need to believe we of course will not win every game there will be ones we lose ans as long as we put a shift in that's all we can ask, Farkeys night he will be with us for some time to come one thing I will say why oh why will our keepers no just get rid of the ball he keeps messing around he's had a couple of near misses he's going to get caught soon.

Well done to the team and our manger👏👏👏👏👏.

14 Sep 2026 23:24:42
So was Chelsea just one game with eight player changes, but it didn't stop you from condemning the keeper and saying Farke needs to leave at the end of this season.

What makes you believe that we won't beat Palace, at Elland road and have some positive results in the October fixtures. ?

14 Sep 2026 23:35:46
Its a very good result Whitey need to build on it now.

Two very contrasting results OP.the league Cup scoreline stung.

We can and should defo beat Palace.

14 Sep 2026 22:02:47
Great team performance. Well done to DF and the rest of the management and playing teams. Will the 4 season long Farke Out bores now lay off please. And a request to my fellow positives can you please stop engaging with the negative ones, it only encourages them.

14 Sep 2026 21:54:43
Enjoyed that:)

Excellent all-round performance, well done everyone tonight.

14 Sep 2026 22:01:55
If we manage to beat a depleted-ish palace next week we're well on our way to a solid season.

We're playing well but I still glance at the relegation zone. And six points or two whole games clear is a nice feeling. I wouldnt say we've had top tier difficult games. But we haven't played any of the newly promoted either.

So many good performances, if anything it was Traffords loosest performance so far and not bad by a long shot.

15 Sep 2026 07:27:30
We haven't had really tough games BKB, but we only got 2 points from those same fixtures last season. I'm not tempting fate, but I'm interested too see what the difference will be versus Arsenal next month.

15 Sep 2026 08:33:47
Agree we haven't had top tier difficult yet. But none of the teams we've played either are pushovers. Forest away Brentford at home Brighton away and Newcastle home. There's no top six and no newly promoted in that run.

Arguably a good time to play forest before they signed Delap and Munoz. Arguably a bad time to play Brighton before euro fatigue hits them.

14 Sep 2026 21:22:10
Farke out!

14 Sep 2026 21:32:44
Haha.yep 4 nil ( so far) this is perfect revenge for last seez at Newcastle

Well done the cuddly Farkey tonight.

14 Sep 2026 21:56:42
What did I say baz we Would WIN got to believe.

14 Sep 2026 22:00:30
Indeed Whitey.
