Elvedi deal officially completed. Hopefully another good addition to the squad.
1.) 19 Aug 2026 14:08:41
Personally, think he's a great addition! Extra LB cover, and we have real strength and some depth at the back.
2.) 19 Aug 2026 14:23:13
Really chuffed with that. Think we should be tough to beat this season. Bit more creativity with Wilson. You never know, Okafor might have got himself fit enough for 90 mins. No centre forward cover, which is a worry, but I'm optimistic for a comfortable season.
3.) 19 Aug 2026 14:50:49
I never really understand the talk of Okafor only lasting 60 minutes. It's always been Farke's tactics to swap wingers around 60-70 minutes, way before Okafor joined, so I think it's more down to tactics and strength in depth rather than him not having the legs. Alongside Wilson, he's the player most likely to create something out of nothing, so I'd be happy going into the season with him starting, then Gnonto, BA, and DJ as options to come off the bench.
I think recruitment has been top notch this summer, arguably the best in the league. Backups are still needed in a couple of positions, but our strongest 11 looks far better than it has for 25 years. I'm personally very happy with what we've done so far and trust the recruitment team to finish the job over the next couple of weeks.
4.) 19 Aug 2026 15:29:49
Okafor is usually blowing out of his arse after an hour. You can visibly see it, and I'm sure his "bra data" will show visible drop offs.
5.) 19 Aug 2026 15:37:31
What's his plan? If we don't concede, we can't lose?
We need some firepower up front.
6.) 19 Aug 2026 16:15:32
That's always been Farke's plan.. don't concede.. at least draw the game, which is okish to an extent..
Still, I maintain a quality striker is more important than a quality gk.
7.) 19 Aug 2026 20:23:30
Okafor simply doesn't get more than 60 min on the wing. Took us a costly while to realise it and start getting him off then. Still, I wouldn't buy another striker. We have 3 after Piroe, and Okafor is one of those. That's 1 more than most clubs. Trying to find someone to sign as backup who is better than N and worse than D, just so we can have 2 more strikers than every other Prem team is a scriduculous waste of money.
Yes, sign someone like Paixeo to strengthen attack, but for goodness sakes go sign Skelly to improve / compete for the first 11 in two spots.
8.) 20 Aug 2026 09:58:07
If you look at Okafor's stats from last season, he played substantially more minutes than during any other season of his career. He also averaged 72 minutes in the games he started. A decent return for a high intensity role.
26 Jul 2026 00:37:04
Harrison gone to New England Revolution, permanent transfer for an undisclosed fee.
1.) 26 Jul 2026 09:20:45
Joe Tiffany reporting £4 million. Amazing bit of business if that's accurate.
2.) 26 Jul 2026 09:23:29
Others on the site are suggesting a top six-figure sum, i.e. under a million.
3.) 26 Jul 2026 10:03:04
Sounds more realistic, and more than he's worth to us, so I'll take it.
4.) 26 Jul 2026 10:40:31
4 mill may include the wages we save?
5.) 26 Jul 2026 11:45:54
You could be right there, Canada. Whatever it is, it's the best for all concerned.
6.) 26 Jul 2026 14:16:43
Liked Harrison in Bielsa era. But anything is good now. Don't get the hatred. He played a lot of games for us and did his best. Long time retired, right. In general, life that we live. Most of the time $ counts.
7.) 27 Jul 2026 03:22:21
Wages off the books is what we needed.
The whole Harrison saga has been one long mess. A new contract, and the mess of that move to Leicester, and then Marsch playing him as an inverted RW, messed him up. He has gone downhill ever since.
8 G and 8 A in a PL season and a 20 million value. Dreadful management by the club. Meslier is similar, and no sell on for Summerville, too.
Thankfully we now have owners with their heads screwed on.
06 Jul 2026 17:35:21
I would like the Harry Wilson signing to be put to bed and announced this week. It's not done till it's done. Has he gone on holiday in one of Musk's rockets?
1.) 06 Jul 2026 20:45:16
It would be good, LUFCfeath. ?
2.) 08 Jul 2026 13:49:36
He was on holiday in Portugal - don't know if he is back yet.
30 Jun 2026 21:48:55
Struick deal done and dusted, officially announced on the LUFC website. Tomorrow, I hope we will also be saying that the Wilson deal is completed. We need to get to work now as two left sided CB's are required. Fair play to Brighton, no messing about getting their man.
1.) 30 Jun 2026 22:37:34
Brighton don't mess around. Pascal is probably their third signing.
2.) 30 Jun 2026 23:07:34
We needed to get the deal done and dusted before Jun 30th so that it was within the PSR accounting window that ends on that date.
3.) 01 Jul 2026 00:10:30
Fair point, JR.
4.) 01 Jul 2026 06:40:12
Exactly, JR. If anything, we were the ones speeding the deal through. Other clubs have already been fined. We avoided one, supposedly, by completing this deal.
17 Mar 2026 22:57:11
Karma as Citeh and Chelski are hammered in the CL.
1.) 18 Mar 2026 09:47:53
See them boda cp games. Now that's relying on home form or not.

Palace Manager gone, Thomas Frank in advanced talks to take over. The sacking season gathering a pace.
1.) 12 Nov 2026 14:57:14
Is TF a good choice ? Not sure.
Dychey is more likely to. sort out their major issue of conceding goals than TF imo.
2.) 12 Nov 2026 15:23:56
I find the outpouring of sympathy towards Carrick by fans and pundits quite amusing.
Since when in modern day football have managers/ coach's, whether they were a former player of the club or not shown any love and respect when they are shown the door out.
They are the most disposable people within a football club these days.
Let's not forget Carrick will receive a pay off in the millions for leaving Man United in their worst position in fifty years.
Everyone repeating like sheep that it was a classless sacking, for Gods sake again, since when was a football manager's sacking made classy ? ??♂️.
3.) 12 Nov 2026 18:35:19
On this I am in total agreement OP
He wouldn't resign as he would have left without his pot of gold ( as if he doesn't have enough )
Classless my arse, they're pony and he hadn't a scooby how to change it, he will waltz into another job soon enough and his name will be in the " talent pool "then
If people want to feel sympathy watch The Champ or Beaches ?.
4.)
12 Nov 2026 21:53:00
Whatever the dislike for Man U by all Leeds fans there has to be some sympathy for Carrick in this train wreck of a sacking. He's served the club well as a player and more recently as an unsuccessful manager but he doesn't make the appointments.
The club is doomed to mid table mediocrity at best because of the leverage buy out, the addiction of the Glazers to dividends and the poor player recruitment and decision making by Wilcox (amongst others) which means that they have not progressed despite the vast amounts spent.
Why should Carrick walk away from a big pay out when he's been shafted and humiliated by the incompetent owners and directors? They deserve to be punished for their incompetence.
Pochettino will not find it easy to deal with the establishment, the lack of funds and the major rebuild which might require maybe upto ten new players. Best of luck, you'll need it.
We should be grateful that there is a relative sense of calm at Elland Road and that we can see some way of progressing unlike our rivals on the other side of the border.

How good was the Bard when he came on!
1.) 08 Nov 2026 16:30:48
Indeed Feath
The Bard was Poetic.
Game changing even
Better than Gabi.
Start him.
2.) 08 Nov 2026 16:53:23
Very good Baz, indeed poetic.
Always happy for players challenging for their position.
3.) 08 Nov 2026 17:00:23
He hasn't got Gabbys dynamism but his crosses, at least yesterday, are far superior.
He deserves to start next game but I'd be surprised if he does.
4.) 08 Nov 2026 18:04:50
On the contrary Corky I think we ain't seen enough of Bard to call that 1 just yet he really seemed to find his groove so easily yesterday,
5.) 08 Nov 2026 18:31:03
Fair comment CC. His crosses were very good though.
6.) 08 Nov 2026 19:10:07
If Rodon is back (as we all hope) then Justin is the likely LB I think? Don't think I could justify Bard over Justin. Great yesterday but part of a stinking defensive performance v Chelsea. Not a big enough body of evidence to start him yet IMHO.
7.) 08 Nov 2026 22:30:08
Bit hard to judge him on Chelsea when he came on at 4:3 even if we conceded two more once he came on. In the same way we can say he played an excellent second half vs. spurs.
I'm just happy we probably have three solid options across Gabby, bard and 50/50 each for Justin and lienou. In reality I think Justin remains a lock to play RB,rcb, be injured, rested or suspended and beyond a true crisis we won't often see him at lb.
As some have highlighted, bard offers something different from Gabby who himself offers something different from bard.
Gabby loves to take on and beat a man, and throw a ball in from close to the byline, often at pace so less about picking someone out and more putting it in a dangerous area. I appreciate him and his assist vs. man u well deserved.
Bard seems more comfortable staying set and picking someone out often from a deeper position. So different options. Both can defend too. Early sample but would shade it for bard for now.
06 Nov 2026 23:31:06
Our last 21 EPL games pre 3pm kick off record:
P21 W0 D8 L13
Please let's get this monkey off our backs tomorrow.
1.) 06 Nov 2026 23:52:15
Feath I was trying to forget that super scary stat as I have Leeds to ( somehow) win 1 nil vs Spuds.
On a far, far more cheery stat. On this day ( ish) 26 years ago Nov 4th 2020, the great legendary Leeds United striker Mr Mark Viduka
Blessed us with a 4 goal absolute striker's masterclass
Leeds United 4 vs Liverpool 3.
2.) 06 Nov 2026 23:56:58
Correction 2000 ( not 2020)
3.) 07 Nov 2026 06:29:31
If that's meant to be a comparison with today's Leeds United then that is not helpful.
Living in the past will not grant us a free ticket to heady heights of those days.
Which incidentally was smashed and seen us throw into the lower divisions for nearly twenty years by an owner who played Russian roulette with our club and lost.
A truly dreadful period in the history of our football club, nothing was real even with the players we had, when I look back to those days I only have anger and regret.
At least what we have today is real and if anything good comes out of it, it will be achieved by honest hard work by everyone concerned at LUFC.
4.) 07 Nov 2026 07:01:26
OP it was a great match and great performance by Viduka.
chill fella.
5.) 07 Nov 2026 08:09:21
So in that context opti no more comparisons with last season. We focus on the here and now. Which by the way is 80% crap.
6.) 07 Nov 2026 08:10:19
What Baz said
Relax OP,not everything needs a psychological overview to try establish if it passes a positive or negative reply
It was an unbelievable game.
7.) 07 Nov 2026 08:32:01
Very well said Chris!
And yes it was a thorougly exhilirating match one of my absolute faves.
8.) 07 Nov 2026 08:39:53
It might have been a good game but have you ever thought about it in the context of all Man City's great victories with all their ill gotten gains ?
Christ when I even think how some harp on about it today and we won diddley squat, zero, even with all those players.
Just embarrassing is all I can think looking back.
There really is nothing there to be really proud of, I've got more respect for the crap Jesse Marsch and his team of flakey rubbish that beat Liverpool at Anfield in more recent times.
9.) 07 Nov 2026 08:42:34
Chris I don't want to relax, you relax, that subject touches a raw nerve for me, like Daniel Farke for some reason gets on your nerves.
10.) 07 Nov 2026 09:05:12
A repeat of Viduka's feat that day will by DCL will do for me today!
11.) 07 Nov 2026 09:22:56
Daniel doesn't get on my nerves
Our performances of late do
See the difference ?.
12.) 07 Nov 2026 09:35:42
I'd like to but I don't because most that would like to see the back of Farke would say that it's his influence that affects the players performances.
I don't subscribe to that. I just see it as that we are in an incredibly tough league with many clubs who are way ahead of us in respects of quality and depth of their squads.
It's always very tough for clubs that come up from the Championship, but for some fans it appears that it is not so difficult and we should be doing a lot better than we are.
Right or wrong we do have polar perspectives on this subject.
13.) 07 Nov 2026 09:42:24
Hull are above us. Cov have won more games and Sunderland below us. How's that work in your perspective opti.
14.) 07 Nov 2026 09:49:16
Teams fortunes fluctuate throughout the season, especially promoted ones, come January you will see a more realistic position for these clubs.
Sometimes there is a buck in the trend as Sunderland proved last season, and all i would say to that is look where they are right now in their second season.
03 Nov 2026 20:53:00
Very sad news about the Tenerife player last night. Losing his life playing a football match just shouldn't happen. Condolences to his family.
1.) 03 Nov 2026 21:14:05
Feath sad news indeed condolences to his family.
2.) 03 Nov 2026 22:20:34
Absolutely Feath. Couldn't believe what I was listening to when I heard it on the radio earlier today.
3.) 03 Nov 2026 22:42:12
Police are now investigating.
Think Schumacher on Battiston only worse, seen the footage earlier.
4.) 04 Nov 2026 09:23:19
That wasn't a tackle it was assault!
Apparently he had a cardiac arrest in the ambulance & later died in hospital!
5.) 04 Nov 2026 12:11:28
Full thunder bolt with the knee in to the chest absolutely mad tackle.
31 Oct 2026 17:00:57
Well, apart from that first 15 minutes, that was dire. Poor passing, short on composure, and no quality in the final third. Next week is now a must win game, which after that performance looks a tall order, or we will start dropping down the table and desperation will creep in.
1.) 31 Oct 2026 17:06:00
First half we were good and deserved to be leading or at worst level. Second half was poor - not a single shot on target. Not really sure what the answer is, but I am pretty sure it is not Nmecha or Arronson.
2.) 31 Oct 2026 17:14:38
The next three home games are important-Spurs, Coventry and Ipswich.
In between we've City, Chelsea and Liverpool away. Makes the home fixtures even more crucial.
3.) 31 Oct 2026 17:17:06
Defensively we are ok, but not looking like scoring is the big worry.
4.) 31 Oct 2026 17:18:02
Spot on analysis Feath.
2 nil.Once again Baz spot on with correct score prediction; 5 matches so far this seez.
Did warn peeps back in Sept that our transfer window was seriously flawed ; need to score. far more
Leeds are in a non scoring rut with few to no solutions
Spuds game is huge. esp for Farke's future imo.
5.) 31 Oct 2026 17:31:40
Wind your neck in Baz. Doing much better than last year. It is called progression. Stop trying to pretend you are the oracle - have an opinion by all means, that is the point of this site, but stop pretending you are always right.
It is really annoying - you seem knowledgable and intelligent - just post your opinions without being such a know it all and I will enjoy your posts a lot more. Thanks.
6.) 31 Oct 2026 17:48:38
Lol Matt chill. I am not the Oracle. just fairly adept at score predictions.
As for Leeds we have a goalscoring issue Matt whether you acknowledge it or not.
2 wins in 9.
7.) 31 Oct 2026 17:53:01
Baz is spot on we lack creativity,and goalscorers,hopefully stay up and invest heavily on attacking players.
8.) 31 Oct 2026 18:05:51
Cheers Stubsy speaking facts.
9.) 31 Oct 2026 17:11:31
PS Random comment, but come on Brighton, can they "do a Leicester”? Whole world would be behind them I am sure (apart from Devon, Russia and USA) .
Also a point for Palace and Man U in the relegation zone. Oh yes.
PPS I hadn't realised that Manure had some link to the Busby Babes Munich disaster, as Ed said last week. Thought it was just because we all thought Man U were a pile of turd. Had I known I would not have used so apologies Ed, and won't use again. They are a pile of turd though.
{Ed001's Note - it is a shame, but it came about purely from a song sung by West Brom fans, who were still annoyed about Man U signing Duncan Edwards, I believe.}
10.) 31 Oct 2026 19:24:04
Baz does love to blow his own horn or tuba if you like.
Seriously though, should have invested in attackers in the transfer window ?
Well that would been great then, would've cost us more money than it would have beefing up our previously fragile defense, sure we might be scoring more goals but we would probably be conceding more.
Imagine right now our defense from last season without the injured Rodon, definitely relegation fodder.
You can't have both and building a team from the back is like building a house from the base.
Does that not make more sense ?
We did invest in two wingers with Wilson and Bohoya, but like many new players it can take time for them to adapt.
11.) 31 Oct 2026 19:41:42
Another woeful display from James Baz
No way you can big him up anymore
He's also urine like a few others we are carrying
Goals are going to be a scarcity form awhile, so maybe 2 up top from the off may help
Over to you Daniel.
12.) 31 Oct 2026 20:57:59
Merely your opinion Chris.
DJ started well played quite well he got 6/10 YEP 7/10 and 8/10,,Leeds Live
Jimmy Trafford lost Leeds the match 4/10 and 5/10
Wish we had signed gk Suzuki. cost less and far better than Trafford.
13.) 31 Oct 2026 21:06:11
I think Dan James term at Leeds United is rapidly coming to an end. Probably our most ineffective player in the the squad, sadly for him I think the Premiership is a step too far for his abilities.
14.) 31 Oct 2026 21:21:13
Baz those ratings are silly talk really
Just an individual like each of us making them
Dave sport gave him a 5
Baz he can't cross or pass an attacking ball with any degree of regularity
A worrying flaw for a winger but you won't agree.
15.) 31 Oct 2026 21:29:43
Don't think Suzuki is any better than Trafford, especially after his howler on the goal line tonight.
16.) 01 Nov 2026 10:10:17
I think he is better OP, but he was never coming to a team on our current level. Im very happy we got Trafford and nobody's perfect.
26 Jul 2026 11:45:54
You could be right there, Canada. Whatever it is, it's the best for all concerned.
01 Jul 2026 00:10:30
Fair point, JR.
09 Sep 2025 23:12:16
I would think so.
02 Sep 2025 17:53:02
I would hope they are!
02 Sep 2025 12:39:30
Seems Brownhill hasn't gone to Wolves as reported on the Beeb. Sorry for the false info gents. Personally I would take him for us. Good player.
11 Nov 2026 21:27:48
Agree regarding Mount Baz, and a quality signing for them! ? As for Poch, hopefully another naff appointment by Uncle Jim, and agent Wilcox.
09 Nov 2026 15:07:46
He said never mind Spurs sending in an official complaint regarding the Bogle decision, Spurs fans should be sending official complaints to the Club after their awful second half performance against Leeds!
08 Nov 2026 12:10:57
Quote of the weekend from Danny Murphy. Good on him.
08 Nov 2026 12:10:02
Yes, two crackers from Delap.
07 Nov 2026 20:13:54
An excellent 3 points before the IB. Agree regarding Longstaff, out on his feet after 60 mins, and not a corner taker. AO, great game, but he did get a knock before he was hooked. Okafor, what can I say, great impact, if we could get him to do it for 90 mins, great.
What I am pleased with is team spirit seems good. Overall a great result against one of the billy big bo**ocks teams. Enjoy the rest of your Saturday!
