A few things i am not liking at the moment
Players getting visibly annoyed with each other on pitch, throwing hands in air, the argument about the penalty in the Hull
Game, the discontent from the players being subbed as well, I also notice summerville letting everyone know his name when he scores, it's about him not the badge or the club . I'd drop summerville out the squad totally as to me I think it's a bad influence and I think is eyeing a move .

16 Apr 2024 00:53:58
Bang on the money Mighty re Summerville.

16 Apr 2024 03:56:09
Play him while we’ve got him but he does come across as an arrogant egotist. Big fish in little pond, if big boys come with the loot he will fade into obscurity. Look at PHILLIPS, lost years of his career trying to slide in above his level - but then if you were offered his kind of loot wouldn’t you . Summerville is quick and small but a couple of outings against some Italian or German defensive assassins and he will slow down.

15 Apr 2024 11:54:35
Just seen the Team of the season.
3 Leeds 2 Leicester 1 Ipswich. On the whole can't really find too much wrong with it except If Rutter, Jimmy and Amps get in surely there is a place for Joe Rodon?

15 Apr 2024 12:11:20
Rodon has been best CD all season

Leif Davis class at LB .

15 Apr 2024 16:58:34
Baz Davis sale cost us a certain Championship 🏆 title. Indicative of the threefold myopic rodent 🧠 power.

15 Apr 2024 17:41:07
Too fricking true George .

Those Leif Davis 16 assists and 2 goals would have had us Champs by March.

15 Apr 2024 17:53:12
Davis is a typical beilsa defender, amazing going forward but awful at defending. Personally I’m old school and like defenders to defend first

Anyone see the irony in that the most beilsa like defender was not given a chance and forced out of the club by, you guessed it! Belisa

Funny the statler and Waldorf of the group are moaning about losing a player that there god forced out?

Brilliant.

15 Apr 2024 22:03:16
Berm

1.Davis is a proven match winner at Champo level ; specialist in getting promoted

2.Bielsa loved and played ' Very good Davis '

3.You be wrong ; it was Orta and Marsch ( not Bielsa ) who foolishly sold Davis in July 2022.

4.I admire Bielsa first 3 years but he is not my " god " as you keep erroneously stating.

15 Apr 2024 22:05:17
.
And Berm . any idea why in posts that do NOT even mention Bielsa , you go off on an obsessive rants about Bielsa!

Obsessed?

15 Apr 2024 22:07:57
Bermondsey, I think Bielsa agreed to his loan but Uncle Jesse actually sold Leif Davis to Ipswich
However, Bielsa clearly didn't rate him at that moment in time.

15 Apr 2024 22:33:43
Sorry Bermo but I think you’re wrong on this one mate.
Davis was definitely loaned out by MB to get first team experience but he was sacked a good few months before Davis was sold by Leeds.
Statler and Waldorf love it 🤣🤣.

15 Apr 2024 10:03:33
He deserves it, his transition has been spectacular in such a short period, just hope we can hold on to him.

15 Apr 2024 11:19:00
No EPL, No Jimmy next season

Sadly that will be way it will go

But here's hoping that ain't case OP.

15 Apr 2024 11:34:36
Had a very good season. Faded a bit but over used.
Jimmy mez Rodon Anthony roberts and prob Danny will go if no prom.

15 Apr 2024 11:43:21
If we go up we need better than Summerville . sell him.

15 Apr 2024 11:52:27
That’s a ridiculous comment Baz, he’s definitely Premiership quality and if we do go up he won’t be fouled as often as he does in the Championship with the very lenient referring and no VAR.
He is without doubt our best player at this moment in time.

15 Apr 2024 12:20:41
No OP

If Chelsea or Man U or Liverpool want to offer Leeds big money. take it and reinvest in team

Summerville needs to add more to his game . his cut in onto his right foot is so uber predictable, one trick pony, his passing isn't great, his crossing isn't anywhere near EPL quality, he has pace but he isn't strong physically. gets bullied.

EPL has a lot of quick, physical athletic defenders who will have CS under control/ in their pockets

Last season CS had a mini purple patch of 4 matches 4 goals then nowt all season in EPL no goals

#overrated.

15 Apr 2024 12:30:04
Op don't dis Baz, he is DJs father and manager, there's no way he would give Jimmy any credit🤣🤣🤣.

15 Apr 2024 12:46:56
Lol Dougie pal 🤣 lurve DJ 150 % commitment to cause first and foremost.

15 Apr 2024 13:08:41
But he should be committed to the cause Baz. He gets paid for it……. 🤦🏼.

15 Apr 2024 13:26:35
He does indeed Brighty

But he is far more committed than most others . that's tne point fella.

15 Apr 2024 14:25:47
Disagree Baz. He has scored a few off right peg but faints left to touch line too. I actually prefer the left cause poss pen although he does ping em from right.
Equal imo.

15 Apr 2024 15:17:07
Well I guess Jimmy being voted player of the season was just an illusion and didn’t really happen.
In the Matrix Daniel James was voted player of the season.

15 Apr 2024 15:25:26
Nah Aus
Watch again
And most (not a few) of his goals are with his right peg.

15 Apr 2024 15:51:35
OP yes Summerville POTS in Champo an vastly inferior league in quality to EPL 😆

DJ isn't the best player in Champo agreed . but his stats are close to CS ( minus his 4 pens)

Just saying.

15 Apr 2024 17:55:07
Baz just when I think you can’t get any more dumber. then I read you next posts

Are you posting tongue in cheek or you seriously think what you type?

15 Apr 2024 18:35:18
Then if Jimmy is a better player than DJ in the Championship, why sell him in the Prem if promoted, why not sell DJ if he is inferior to Jimmy?
You’re not making sense Baz?!

15 Apr 2024 19:19:14
Congrats indeed to Summerville, Grey, Amps and Rutter for their gongs. Tremendous season for the lot of em.

15 Apr 2024 22:19:55
OP
If Leeds go up, if clubs offer big money for Cre then sell; buy a better player from Europe better value

DJ a squad player.

15 Apr 2024 22:33:55
OP IF Leeds go up

And IF a big offer comes in for CS

Then sell CS

Replace CS with a better player
; ideally better value transfer fee player

DJ is squad player in EPL.

15 Apr 2024 22:49:15
Time hopefully will tell if Summerville is good enough for premier league with Leeds. In my mind he’s definitely good enough whether he’s top draw player for a top 4 club time will tell. Our winger Anthony done the business at Bournemouth in the top flight and he can’t get ahead of Jimmy.
And Bazza I know you’ve got a man crush on James but you literally can’t compare the two players as James failed miserably in the Premier league. Maybe next time he can prove doubters wrong?

15 Apr 2024 07:55:16
This is going to sound strange but I'm quite happy the next 2 games are away from home.

I don't think the lads are handling the pressure of expectations too well at ER for whatever reason. We need an early goal to get the fans going and it's not happening.

Boro won't make the play offs but it is a Yorkshire derby (of sorts) so they will be up for it.

QPR definitely need the points and they have to go for them. I can't see either of them sitting back and trying to hit us on the break, which has worked lately.

Just my thoughts.

15 Apr 2024 08:47:51
50% agree Sheds. I just feel Boro have already dug the foundations for a bus parking lot in their penalty area, and won’t show any ambition at all, except to deny us the 3 points we desperately need.

15 Apr 2024 10:01:41
When they came to Elland rd, it was a pretty full on game until they had a player sent off.
You are right though sheds there is a possibility that the expectation at home at this moment in time is bearing down on the players.
For me now it’s got nowt to do now with rotation and selection. I would say all the players are feeling the pressure and now is the time that they need to overcome their apprehensions and play freely like we were from the beginning of this year to the international break.

This will be down to Farke to get his troops ready to fight for their lives with flair, passion and most of all a great belief and confidence that they can do this.
It’s going to be so close in the end that I seriously believe goal difference will be the decider for automatic promotion.

15 Apr 2024 10:35:11
Hopefully not having Ayling (who has started every game and actually played decently for them) or Greenwood (who’s started 4 of the last 5 games and would have scored the winner v Ipswich but for a fine save by their keeper) will diminish Boro at least a little. Yes, I know, probably grasping at straws a little.

15 Apr 2024 11:19:13
Greenwood should never have been loaned out. Useful player and excellent on corners and scoring from free kicks which we need.

Mskes assists also .

Ailing playing well too would have been useful to keep till end of season.

15 Apr 2024 11:53:00
I'll take the 50% Brighty, thought I might get shot down totally tbh.

OP I'm not sure Farke has a motivational speech in him, at least not in the same vein as say Jim Telfer's to the British Lions before the first test in 1997 (which worked btw) or Alf Ramsay after the Germans equalized in 1966. All Sir Alf said was "you've won it once, now win it again" (that also worked) .

15 Apr 2024 12:22:45
Lurve it 2 Sheds

Post of 2024 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏.

15 Apr 2024 13:10:49
Who would Greenwood have played instead of Baz? . at the point of his loan rather than now, which would be an easier choice.

In my view, until the last 3-4 games, I don't think he would be picked?

15 Apr 2024 13:28:39
Ani . SG could alternate with GK . and an excellent bench option to bring on.

15 Apr 2024 19:00:04
2 Sheds, I wouldn’t be saying Herr Farke is up there with the likes of Sir Alf, but he must have said something motivational to his Norwich players other than, "just go out there and do yer best", to win the Championship not once but twice, which is undeniably one of the most difficult leagues to win.

15 Apr 2024 22:36:48
OP

DF speech likely: ' Give ball to. Buendia and Pukki '

15 Apr 2024 04:27:48
Champo Awards

( 1) So Summerville pips Dewsbury Hall as Champo Player of Season

I expect every Leeds supporter concurs ; hopefully Summerville can rediscover previous much better form for final 3 games!

( 2) Archie Gray gets YPOTY ( fair enough) . well done AG.

(3) McKenna Manager of Year . totally the correct decision.

I know there are some on here who do not rate him that much

but imo McKenna has been impressive and over achieved with his Ipswich team ahead of Leicester, Leeds and Southampton.

15 Apr 2024 05:36:53
Can’t argue with any of those awards really.

15 Apr 2024 08:49:38
At this point of the season, tho I don’t rate him, can’t argue with the Ipswich gaffer winning it. Obviously our players deserve their awards without question. Interesting that Rodon didn’t make team of the season, but Amps did?

15 Apr 2024 11:21:01
So likely 2 promotions in a row and yer don't rate him .

Makes no sense .

15 Apr 2024 11:37:11
In my eyes will go down as the worst team I have seen to ever get promoted. If they do.
But he got them up there so got to get some credit.

15 Apr 2024 13:11:17
Let’s not go down the route of “making sense” eh Baz? You flip your opinions more than that famous French guy; Phillipe Phelope.

15 Apr 2024 13:29:59
Sorry Brighty but your illoghcal stance on MCKENNA reeks of bias.

15 Apr 2024 17:19:38
For all I care, it can reek of dog turds Baz! That’s my opinion.

14 Apr 2024 17:55:31
I think I can sense discord among the ranks.
Players throwing A hissy fit when subbed, storming off at final whistle, this does not bode well for the rest of the season.

14 Apr 2024 18:09:28
Possibly 1970 the GR and JR hissy fit reactions were a tad surprising.

14 Apr 2024 18:29:06
Well that how us fans feel still they will still have the nerve to pick up their wages on pay f. joke.

14 Apr 2024 19:21:59
Farke allowing the tail to wag the dog 🐶 as has been the case at Leeds for several years now. Had he freshened things up for a game or two we'd probably be promoted by now and the squad would be in harmony. Also, reintroducing Rutter so quickly after surgery was a schoolboy howling error. Club run on emotions still.

14 Apr 2024 19:51:53
What are you on about whiteman?
All the players have contributed this season and played well most of the time. We’re still in the mix for promotion and you say they don’t deserve their wages.
Are you a bitter little man who begrudges a man a very good wage because they haven’t lived up to your expectations?
Do mr a favour pal.

14 Apr 2024 20:10:05
Not the players' fault, perhaps only as much as 15%. Rest falls on Farke for rotation paucity further demonstrable by an act of madness subbing off our best 3 players in our last match. Agent Farke harbouring feelings for Canaries? Desirous of legitimate evasion of promotion payment to Radz? Who knows? If it was all accidental though, I'd hate to see 🙈 a wilful sabotage. 🧠☠️⚱️.

14 Apr 2024 21:35:38
George, farke has a great rep at both Leeds and Norwich for not letting the tail wag the dog… look it up.

15 Apr 2024 11:01:24
I whinged about the substitutions.
But apparently Gnonto is still recovering from injury, as is Roberts and Gruev was taken off to push another attacker on
So my big beef is, why swap 3 at the same time and cause confusion until everyone settles.

15 Apr 2024 11:42:11
Gnonto looked fine, full of running, peeved to come off, 9 days recovery before next match

AG should have come off not IG fgs .6 attackers no midfield. certainly no CDM

Gruev stays on that Blackburn goal steaight down middle of pitch does not happen

DF disaster class. the defeat on him first and foremost.

15 Apr 2024 17:58:54
Home defeat was first of season and that is foremost

Farke matserclass.

14 Apr 2024 17:27:56
Bogusz scored another 2 for LAFC yesterday. A young, goal scoring, midfielder, good job we don't need one of them eh? That £700k will bankroll us for years I suppose.

14 Apr 2024 17:47:11
Exactly right Rambo.

15 Apr 2024 07:40:24
3 goals in 8 games (in MLS) is hardly the prolific goal scorer “another 2” implies, particularly when it was 6 in 66 the season before (across LaLiga 2 and MLS) .

I really liked Bogusz and wish he’d been a success for Leeds, but I don’t think he’d be near the first team if he was still here.

15 Apr 2024 11:25:00
So 9 goals in 74 games ( 1 goal in 8 (

as opposed to zero in 46 Kamara

or previously Adam Forsaw zero in 300

I will take the former.

15 Apr 2024 13:12:15
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.

14 Apr 2024 16:08:14
Liverpool's result today show how hard it is to break down a patient, well organised and focused defence.
Sometime - infact often - having too much of the ball, in todays counter attacking football, can be a bad thing. When teams come to ER we sometimes find it difficult to break them down. Having no really creative CM and no out and out goal scorer leaves us liable to a result like Saturday. Its no excuse but L 0 CP1 shows it happens to better teams than ours! Just saying!

14 Apr 2024 16:20:24 Haaaaa, anyone seen the refuse disposal experts?

14 Apr 2024 16:40:23
Liverpool have possibly done ( a bit) better than expected Georgey

Whilst the rumours of Liverpool interest have possibly gone to Summerville 's head with his recent lacklustre performances.

Not sure Liverpool even need CS, it's other areas in their squad that need an improvement in personnel.

14 Apr 2024 17:43:30
And looking down posts Aus also used ' tubbies ' referring and responding to the hot tub optimists Bright etc.

14 Apr 2024 20:15:07
If you want to monopolise this site, and just have your own little negativity, prediction backslapping, playground joke fest of childishness, you two are going the right way about it. It’s laughably sad.
I think you’ll find even I resurrected that phrase this morning, tongue in cheek, but you can’t help yourselves. Never mind.

14 Apr 2024 21:37:00
Liverpool, Arsenal, Leeds, Leicester

Lots of mangers should be sacked this weekend hey lads?

14 Apr 2024 14:00:39
I've just had a look at the player stats for yesterday.
It didn't surprise me to read that Joe Rodon was the poorest player on the pitch for us yesterday
He was at fault for the build up to their goal and stormed straight down the tunnel at full time
There's plenty on here who would have hammered Liam Cooper for making that mistake
Our best forward was Gnonto, with Rutter being the poorest.

14 Apr 2024 14:55:00
Ever since the 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Euro elimination, the 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👦👦 haven't quite been the same.

14 Apr 2024 15:01:38
Its worrying when JR isn't even playing well.

DJ received second highest player ratings 6 out of 10 of all the front players from YEP, Leeds Live etc
Higher rating thsn CS, PB, GR, JP

Yet DJ is the one bizarrely getting bashed by the rose tinted tubbies on here.

Funny that.

14 Apr 2024 15:05:43
Question is Leeroy given. the past 5 games form, performances and results.

What is going to change for final 3 games for Leeds to win
#must wins.

14 Apr 2024 15:10:54
To be fair Baz, as soon as Dan James came on he immediately caused problems and it was a shame Gnonto didn't get on the end of his ping across goal.
Unfortunately, the players repeatedly kept the ball on the left instead of utilising Dan James pace and drive.

14 Apr 2024 15:26:31
Indeed DJ did . top fair post Leeroy

And YESSS what's with Leeds in recent matches playing always down left . its becoming uber predictable for opposition to defend against


Team tactics : give ball to. CS.

14 Apr 2024 16:02:09
Not sure DJ is getting bashed Baz🤔, I think most on here would accept he is one of the success stories this season for sure, along with many others at the club.
I think what people have mentioned is that for the previous couple of games prior to yesterday, he was really poor, and didn’t warrant a starting spot.
You are very quick (as we all are) to point out when players have been poor, so you have to accept the criticism towards DJ for the previous few performances.
I do think he injected some pace and urgency when he initially came on though, and the change almost worked!

14 Apr 2024 16:03:35
Baz, the first thing would be to leave Rutter out of the team
It's clearly obvious that he's struggling after his hernia operation, which isn't helping the team
Second would be to stop repeatedly attacking down the left and mix it up to keep teams guessing
Put Gnonto on the left, James on the right and Summerville in the 10 role
Archie Gray looked better in midfield, with Roberts at right back.

14 Apr 2024 16:05:09
If its any consolation, the top 3 in the Premier League are struggling to win their games too.

14 Apr 2024 16:46:10
MG, good post

I wasnt especially referring to you.

it was some of the other more biased tubbers 🤣.

14 Apr 2024 17:05:03
So Baz, in your earlier post above you refer to Rose Tinted TUBBIES, which refers to us all of optimistic views being FAT, then in this one you refer to the Rose Tinted lot as Tubbers, so now we are posters who race bath tubs! What a strange ignorant man you are! Just in case you don’t realise you are also FATTIST! Not on Baz, not on at all, all because you don’t agree with peoples opinions! Wow well that’s it from me as I won’t be a part of that!

14 Apr 2024 17:35:25
Err Woody . you habe misinterpreted

I refer you to Brights post below

Tubbers as in Hot Tub ( the apparatus) . as in optimist.

Tubbers is what Bright below ( and many other of the optimists ) refer themselves to over the years

Tubbers / tubbies. as in hot tub apparatus. nowt else.

14 Apr 2024 18:30:00
That stemmed from the poster
(Axe in the hot tub )

He was of a Rose tinted persuasion seldom seen since Jackson Pollack unearthed a new shade of Crimson ❤️ 🤣.

14 Apr 2024 19:33:06
CC 🤣🤣. He was also a prize 🔧.

14 Apr 2024 20:18:13
Jebus George. You really are pushing the boat out tonight to prove how small a man you really are! Very little indeed it would seem, to bad mouth a guy, who may still be reading, but not posting anymore, for whatever reasons. Truly very small.

15 Apr 2024 08:53:53
Axe was originally just “axe”. A very good poster in here, but who got lots of undue stick due to his positivity. It’s a strange world when being constructively positive draws criticism, (and name calling from someone…. )

14 Apr 2024 11:08:25
Whilst, I think, I like Joseph he has not had enough time to convince men one way or another and sadly this pressure cooker moment is not the ideal time to blood a young unknown.
Even sadder still our alternative is an experienced misfiring CF. With 5 games left we do not have the time to wait for him to regain his mojo.
So, how about a radical approach?
The easiest would be to play MJ from the whistle followed by Putting another attacker in the hot seat. How about making gnonto our fox in the box with the instructions to the others Just get it into the box as often as you can.
Either way we have a Big problem to solve come the close season. Che Adams?

14 Apr 2024 12:39:14
Might wanna check fixture count Leo pal.

14 Apr 2024 13:12:48
I think it's a catch 22. Yes he's young, but he really impressed me against Chelsea. Everyone else in the team is buckling under the pressure, so he may as well be given a chance. Unfortunately, seems there is no one else who can score. I would also like to see us play 2 up top and mix up how we attack. We stick to to the left side, pass to Summerville and 90% of the time he is fouled or falls over. We also need to work on corners (attacking and defending) . I think cresswell would be useful for these. Yes he hasn't played alot, but he seemed to do well at Millwall last year. When I did see him play for us a while back, he has Antonio in his pocket. Whatever happens like all of us on here, I will continue to support us no matter what. MOT and fingers crossed for the rest of the season and a minimum of 7 points 🤞.

14 Apr 2024 13:53:03
MJ is 21 this year, he looked good in games he played.

DF won't of course.

DF lasting just one season in his previous job before getting the tin tack doesn't surprise.

14 Apr 2024 14:11:00
CC 🤣🤣.
