I’d have sold him before this season started Roberts lost me with his arrogance against Hull trying the fancy stuff that never came off
How was he average? 2nd top goalscorer (9). Most assists (9). Player of the season again. Grabbed the club by the scruff of the neck and dragged us over the line. That wasn't 5 years ago, that was 2 months ago. The guy is probably still the most talented player we have on the books at the moment, certainly the most intelligent. Eventually you will be right and father time will catch up but basing on what I have seen this year it's not happened yet. You can't throw the injury prone thing at him. He has been injury prone since we signed him up. And yet despite the injury lay offs he still manages to be our most influential player in less games. Wouldn't it have been great having Pablo available against Sheff Utd at the weekend? We would have had a more dominant first half without a doubt. We don't have players like De Paul just yet. Holder Costa wouldn't get a game if we had Jaden Sancho but we don't. Until it becomes clear and obvious that he has gone past his sell by date I want Pablo at the club. Didn't you say this last season too? That we should move away from using him? Not sure we would be in the PL if that had happened. As for the young players, yes I'd start with them and they can play the frantic first hour and when the game settles and the other team are starting to get tired I would not hesitate to turn to Pablo and tell him to go and win the game. It's what he does and has done consistently for years. Eventually he will fade but on his last 10 performances that hasn't been apparent. Aim is to stay in the league. I would suggest keeping your current player of the season involved would be a good start.
Hope your Mrs ages well Rich. Anyway...just think carefully before you put her out to pasture prematurely, finding quality replacements can be harder than it seems
Going to watch Fulham v Villa. Tough decision, as just want to punch Scott Parker in the face...repeatedly. And on the other hand can't stand Villa, Dean Smith, John Terry, Grealish etc etc etc... F*ck it come on Fulham... Nah, who am I kidding...has to be the draw
Fulham looking like they're going to do a Norwich. Parker got his new 3 year contract and will be gone by xmas...so predictable.
Having a good laugh today at the expense of Arsenal fans kicking off with Arteta for selling Sam Greenwood to them Northern baxtards who got him to score a hat-trick today Also Bayern Munich fans who last year took the pee out Borrusia fans as they stole Cuisance but now crying at Hansi Flick for being stupid and selling the future to Leeds also Ristac climbing down on his Pablo needs a Stenna stairlift post
You can all bookmark this page and bump it when Pablo comes on with 20 minutes to go and wins us the game, sadly it will never happen, he is finished, instead I'll bump it at the end of the season and say I told you all so
The criteria is to come on/or start and play well... Why does Pablo have to win games single handed ?
Docs tip for how the week could roll out If Cuisance signs, Norwich will need to be realistic about the price for Cantwell because if Man Utd buy Sanches or equivalent, Dan James will be in Leeds by the weekend. So as I think Cuisance is happening (although Bayern now taking stick from fans) Bielsa wants another winger and Man Utd will deffo offload James and James deffo will come to Leeds. Norwich could be lumbered with Buendia, Cantwell and the full back Aaron ##? For me Cantwell before James because Cantwell can play No10 as wellas wing whereas James is Aidy White tram lines only
I'd like us to get Dan James but I'd say there's about a 5% chance of that happening this window. With the right coaching he could be a top player, it's worth taking the chance in my opinion.
