Leeds Transfer Banter

18 Oct 2025 16:59:02
There's you answer Mr Maratthe on taking a punt on a player totally ill equipped for a premiership team who you knew would struggle, , albeit he's a sub, Nmecha offers nothing, changes nothing, achieves nothing, it's why our slide has been happening, coupled with Lewins lack of goals ( no surprise) , and the icing on cake Brendan

As the adage says
Table don't lie, so it's no surprise too me in all honesty

I felt Lewins transfer wouldn't work
I knew Nmechas wouldn't, it now almost November and our goal tally is already worrying, Farke I feel is now under pressure, pressure he has brought on himself to a degree,

Knocking the ball around lower 2/ 3's park trumps up the stats yes, but unfortunately our stats in red zone are the 1's that win points and we are now clearly failing at that

Very poor today.

I am sure the manager, the board and the fans know it doesn't matter how well you up to the opponent's 6 yard box if you haven't an experienced and recognised goal scorer there are not going to be many games you lose. We had a good day at wolves but that was the exception. I seen all of the games this year and I get sucked in as well. I come away thinking we didn't do that bad even when we lose or throw away winning positions because we couldn't put the game to bed. At the moment we flatter to deceive. We have some very nice players none of whom has the ability to be the predatory striker who is there or there about with the skill to convert the chances that come along. Aaronson gets into some good positions in front of goal but if he converts more than one in ten he would be exceeding expectations. He is not alone in that respect. I worry we will continue to contest games, play well and still end up in the bottom 3/ 4.

Poor, really, really poor.

Next Friday's game becomes even more significant (as if it wasn't before) .

I'm not a Farke in or out person but unless we get three points against the Hammers at home, he could find himself staring down the barrel!

18 Oct 2025 17:37:40
I knew the sack Farke would raise its ugly head as soon as we lose the next game.
This game was not on DF our players had opportunities to score and they didn’t.

18 Oct 2025 17:47:15
It's the world we live in OP - the pressure will mount if we don't get three points against the Hammers next Friday. Of that you can be sure.

18 Oct 2025 18:15:58
Opti, who was it on if not for Farke?

He set up wrong with his formation and played arronson and Harrison on the wings.

Burnley were poor.

We conceded another goal at a set piece and he refused to hire a set piece coach.

18 Oct 2025 18:30:08
Non of us want Aaronson or Harrison on the wings but what other wingers did we have available?

18 Oct 2025 18:47:52
He could adapt and overcome and not play wingers.

4-5-1 or 5-4-1, overload in midfield and play the ball to DCL/ Piroe (sub) .

Push Bogle and gudmundsson up the pitch knowing the midfield is strong enough to secure them.

18 Oct 2025 18:54:34
MOT surely your not blaming Farke?
No wingers to choose from Harrison should of gone and Arronson also!
Leeeds had enough chances to win the game . nobody would save that goal.

18 Oct 2025 18:55:32
OP that's a bit lame now really, it the lack of anything tactical EVERY TIME we are chasing games, he just floods it with ""attacking " players and hopes for the best

He never outsmarts other managers, . he more or less totally mute in games, he continues to pick Aaronson, he continues to pick Stujuk, he won't try push bogle further up, with JJ slotting In, Darlow time for a drop again, and he has. to let Bijol have a go

How's any of that on the players?

18 Oct 2025 20:04:56
We created chances but poor finishing, too many individual errors. Aaronson and Bogle should’ve converted their easy chances but didn’t.
Poor finishing by certain players was the reason we lost that game.

18 Oct 2025 20:55:38
If a person keeps telling himself a pork pie he eventually succumbs to its allure 🤣.

18 Oct 2025 23:01:55
Indeed Chris, you said it 🤣.

18 Oct 2025 16:51:03
Well that was absolutely rubbish.
clueless performance, no direction, no threat whatsoever so ever. Play like this again against Wet spam and they’ll demolish us.
The worry is attacking wise we looked like strangers today.

18 Oct 2025 16:46:36
Farke refusing to swap players when off form, keeps playing arranson.
Doesn't change subs at HT even
though the squad isn't working.

Won't employ a set piece coach even though we keep conceding on set pieces.

18 Oct 2025 18:37:12
It’s completely incompetent and arrogant.

18 Oct 2025 16:43:01
Just remind me is DCL still playing in this match.

18 Oct 2025 18:38:06
Who do you bring on? Nmecha is pants and Piroe doesn’t fit Farkes agenda.

18 Oct 2025 16:37:22
What's wrong with Bogle this year.

18 Oct 2025 16:51:08
So far 16 shots, only 3 on target none of them in the back of the net. What's wrong with all of them!

18 Oct 2025 15:43:54
Didn't think I'd be watching championship football this season!

18 Oct 2025 15:55:39
Absolute Barry White cork
Woeful turgid football

Baracus will get Mr Farke tic tacked yet, and it will serve him right

The lad is woeful, if your a winger on our squad and your looking at his inclusion weekly and his persistence in being picked, you must be thinking what hope do I have of changing that, because he's playing weekly on no basis of merit whatsoever

Pressure will grow if we lose this game

Here's hoping for a vastly improved 2nd's.

18 Oct 2025 16:39:52
Totally agree Chris, the BA experiment is way beyond a joke now, it's getting exasperating.

18 Oct 2025 16:52:41
Our finishing has been woeful. A real lack of quality.

18 Oct 2025 17:05:14
It’s because there is no other winger available.

18 Oct 2025 17:06:50
You honestly have to think that our American owners must insist that Aaronson has to play to please the American market and shareholders.

18 Oct 2025 17:08:44
Have match of the day anyway!

18 Oct 2025 17:39:47
Aaronson himself is not a winger. In fact it’s debatable he’s even a footballer.

18 Oct 2025 17:42:04
Well OP, thing is you say that as if BA were a winger, he bloomin ain't! How about going 532, having Bogle overlap to supply, take BA out altogether playing AO as a 10 behind DCL. There are more options than just sticking a player in a position because he's got some negatives of you being naughty, honestly, as a right winger he makes a good ball boy.

18 Oct 2025 17:47:17
Play Justin at right back and bogle as a right winger. Just a thought!

18 Oct 2025 15:31:22
Good cross for the goal, but a free header, nobody near him. As for us, nothing happening up front or from midfield. A dissapointing start.

18 Oct 2025 15:08:51
Mallorca have just won 3:1 away at Sevilla thanks to two cracking goals from Matteo Joseph 😀⚽️.
