Tippy happy football from our over coached team by Tommy the happy holiday rep is useless in this country. We are worse than last season and he has ruined our decent players.
First team starting 11 - We are just last seasons Green, Bartley and Wood away from an automatic promotion winning team. If all those three had been here this season playing like they did last we would be looking very strong. It is the reserve and back up players that are not cutting it for us and then I don't think they are any worse than last seasons back-up players. If you add up the points the keepers have cost us and add up the missed chances by Roofe and Lasogga I bet its quite alarming. Yes Roofe and Lasogga have scored 10? Between them but I bet the chances Alioski, Henrnandez and Saiz have created for them are quite a bit more than what Sacko, Dallas and Mowatt/Hernandez/Roofe/Barrow/Grimes created last season
See you on the 20th Can't be arsed to argue or discuss with you about the match, you have your own agenda
100% correct, add Orta buying ****e and no depth to the average squad and Rad is going to hand Cellino the club back in a worse state than when he took his ban induced break. I didn’t think it was possible...
Time will tell.... The asking price will be whatever was agreed when he let Rad pretend to take over.
If I was the manager I would of made the players go to the faithful who were on the road at crack of dawn and listen to there reaction, then get them in the dressing room and ask them if they want to be associated with Leeds United? There are players who played today that need to be shown the door, CBJ, Anita, Grot, Lassoga, and a few more I am undecided about, oh Philips must be wondering if he has a future just don’t rate him.
Berardi isn't that bad, I seem to remember he shared last season with Taylor. If Taylor hadn't been fu'kd off by Cellino we might still have had him at the club and I dare say he would have been first choice Left Back. Anita is more a defensive midfield player and he certainly isn't ahead of Ayling at RB or Berardi at LB so I'd have to argue he is a reserve, Shaugnessy isn't ahead of O'Kane, Phillips and Vieira, injuries have meant him coming into a defensive midfield role, again with a fully fit squad he isn't first choice and if we had Bartley he wouldn't get a sniff. Lasogga was first choice replacement for Wood and that is my argument, we are just three of last seasons players short of a very decent first team.
We both have supported this club for long enough to know that its a hard long road, we have seen good times bad times and we have spent thousands doing it.
Previous seasons we have had results like today and we have had Bates, GFH or Cellino in charge. We have approached January and I have seen us sell a succession of captains, every transfer window, the likes of Howson, Snodgrass, Peltier, Austin, Warnock, (all were captains). I have seen us sell leading strikers and goal scorers in Becchio, McCormack and Beckford and each time we have never replaced them, the profits have been pocketed. Rads has come in, he has laid down a proper infrastructure and he has employed someone to scout and find us new talent and footballers who have cost money, maybe £2m at a time, this is a massive difference to Cellino with five loans at a time and GFH and Bates signing us freebie journey men. I can understand the frustration at some of the quality we have brought in but they were not freebies and Rads has popped his hand in his pocket. On paper you would have assumed Klich and Lasogga should be far better than they are. IF Rads doesn't dig deep this transfer window then I would assume it is because a shadow of doubt has been cast over Orta. If I were Rads I would now sack Orta, I would keep Thomas and ask him who we should sign to strengthen the squad, either that or I would let both go and get a traditional style manager in.
There is one nailed-on proof that Radz is not Cellino's stand-in. There is no feckin way Cellino would not take the credit for buying back Elland Road. Full stop.
When you are going to remove someone from a high profile position you have to be diplomatic, Radz is not an hatchet man so let’s see.
