Player ratings.
Perri 5. Two good saves but at fault for first goal, shoulda saved it and assist for 3rd goal. Poor poisoning and distribution.
Bogle 6. Tried hard but suspect defending.
Rodon 7. Heart on sleeve tried his best.
Bij 6. Still developing partnership with rods and slow with poor positioning.
Gabs 6. Not his best day and thought Justin would start.
Ba 3. After a good game last week collapsed this week.
Amps 2 Not a prem league midfielder. He needs to be in defense.

Poor distribution and slow to close down.
Long 6. Tried but looked a bit jaded. Not sure he understood tactics. Not used to parking the broken bus at Newcastle.
Oks. 7. Our only glimmer of quality.
Ao 6. Got about. Did his best but was run ragged most of time by quality opponents.
Farke. 2. Wrong tactics. Wrong subs. Just wrong everything. Out of his league and it shows.
Subs
James. 1 Who?
Name. 5. Did his best in limited time.
Stach 1. Who?
Harrison. 4.
Justin 5. Adequate.

Reading around other forums and on social media there seems to be one out of work candidate that is considered good enough to keep Leeds up and it's Brendon Rogers. Would he come to us though?

Our owners would have to convince him there are significant funds for him in January.

The owners strike me as a group of short sighted individuals who are too concerned with lining their own pockets and those of their investors asap and God knows how many there are, and consequently have been economical with the truth over PSR limiting their spending to £100 million.

The figures simply do not add up because near the end of last season before clinching promotion there was a reported figure of £30 million PSR
limit spend had we not got promoted so as we did get promoted and the tv revenue is £150 million and then there is the clubs match day revenue, commercial revenue from sponsorship etc you can clearly see and draw the conclusion that iether the owners have kept funds back for a new boss to spend in January or they are sticking excessive amounts that should have been spent on an extra player or three n their grubby little pockets and BS ing us all.

I accept the owners will want a return but the first season back in the big league like Sunderland have shown needs every available penny spent on squad strengthening and not the short sightedness I mention cashing in like a kid in a sweet shop.

Either way by not backing Farke this summer for whatever reason has now started to come home to roost and looks a stupid naive and probably greedy strategy instead of just showing the ambition they needed to like Sunderland and resisting their desire to fill their pockets to the maximum straight away and holding out for 12 months when their golden goose was more likely to be a lot fatter instead of what is starting to unravel into a inevitable return to the Championship and much slimmer pickings again.

PSR is based on the previous 3 years - not the upcoming year.

How much have we got to spend in January Alf. Serious question? Ball park figure. Without selling. Although truth be told I’d only keep oka long gabby Justin anyway.

According to Leeds we have eff all to spend!
I wonder what happened to the €40 million we were willing to spend on Paixao?

The answer doesn’t matter Aus, because whether it’s £1 or £100million the fans won’t believe it.

We had to sell to get Igor. That's already been stated. Accounts will prove that before season end.

we have £30m- £35m to spend in Jan according to my sources and will be aiming to bring in 2-3 players.
